This should be about the beagles, it shouldn’t matter who saves them, they should just be saved and that should be the focus.

This is such an amazing and fact based report. Well done to you all for great reporting. I am one that has been to MBR Acres. When you go and witness yourself, listen to the dogs and experience the smell, it is something you will never forget. Please watch the Camp Beagle footage, get involved and sign the petition. Our government is supporting animal cruelty and it must stop.

It’s hard to believe that we are still testing on animals in this day and age. We all know that a huge numbers of experts working in the pharmaceutical sector openly acknowledge the failure of animal models in their drug development process and write about this often, in the peer reviewed scientific literature. The failure of animal models is also acknowledged by the US-based National Cancer Institute, which says we have lost cures for cancer because studies in rodents have been believed. Vaccines have never been more important than they are today, and the failure of animal models in vaccine development was underlined in no uncertain terms by the inventor of the polio vaccine, Dr. Albert Sabin, who testified under oath, at the US House of Representatives, stating progress “was long delayed by the erroneous conception of the nature of the human disease based on misleading experimental models of the disease in monkeys.” And if that wasn’t enough, the Food and Drug Administration states that nine out of ten new medicines go on to fail in human trials, because animals cannot predict human responses.
Sadly it’s all about the money. Big money!

How can any weirdo hurt a dog? If you put a white coat on, a hair net and blue gloves doesn’t mean the dog suffers less. This is violence not science. Thank you gb news. let’s get those beagles in homes and out of grubby contract testing laboratory’s. Harry and Megan have done a wonderful thing highlighting this. Thank you.

My sincere thanks to all of those who continue to protest at Camp Beagle outside MBR Labs. Animal testing is archaic, does not and never will work. It is time for humane alternative testing. Thank you for all worldwide for their caring and compassion in this fight against all animal experimentation and testing.

Poor pup Megan never keep her they always disappear when the head lines are over

If your comment is focused on Harry and Meghan being the issue, rather than the fact that there are literally thousands of dogs being tortured IN THE UK, then please reevaluate your priorities. Personally I DO NOT CARE who brings publicity to this issue. The only thing that matters is that we get those beagles OUT.

Contact your local MP about the petition and testing on animals. With a general election maybe in 2 years, which political party will be brave enough to make change happen.

[jjhry]

it has nothing to do with them 2 idiots but it is about helping the dogs, they are just trying to look good

[GA-ivdj]

So heartbreaking to see those poor dogs so bored in those cages, and not even having an idea of the hell where they are going to be taken to be tortured in labs💔💔💔

[lyndaryan]

What about their little dog who had two broken legs allegedly it had contact with a wall, let’s hope this one doesn’t go near a wall.

[alparkinson]

Did any of you in the comments know about testing on beagles before the publicity? Do you even care now? Perhaps you would rather just have a moan and miss the whole point of rescuing the poor animals

[chapers]

The same Meghan Markle that abandoned her dog in Canada because it was too much hassle? The same Prince Harry that used to enjoy shooting birds in half with shotguns? What hero's they are!

[traceymyers]

A little more research about the hours here! 5pm-7am, they’re left longer than that! And I don’t agree with Eamon says, why do we test on pets, we shouldn’t be testing in ANY ANIMALS any more!!! 🤬🤬🤬

[Fahhad]

These two grifters are living in a parallel universe.
Meghan is trying to erase everything with time going by.

[celticstar]

That's a bit rich from Harry, didn't he hurt a horse while playing Polo a couple of years again and goes on shooting events killing birds with his posh mates. They both hypocrites.

[demontaine]

Ricky Gervaise and Peter Egan have been fighting this barbaric torture for years, along with petition signers and activists to no avail!So on the bandwagon comes our heroine..but if it helps end testing on beagles and all the many other victims of laboratories i will cheer from the rooftops! But please lets not raise her up to sainthood.

[Laluna]

Wow but she abandoned her dog in Canada
