Dear Prime Minister I am writing to ask that the Labour Government bans colony cages. The Labour Party has made promises in previous elections – 2014 and 2017 – to phase out intensive farming, including colony cages for hens. And yet I have seen no action while Labour has been in Government. Hens are still trapped in cages. New Zealand voters have placed their trust in you and the Labour Party to lead our country for another three years. Now is the time to fulfil a promise, and free all hens from cages in Aotearoa. In New Zealand, we pride ourselves on being a caring nation. And yet we still allow animals to suffer in confinement on intensive farms. In a colony cage, a hen does not even have room to spread her wings. It is a discredit to our country that we still allow animals to be treated so cruelly, and we are falling behind other countries that have already banned or are phasing out cages. I am one of millions of Kiwis who oppose the use of colony cages – it’s time for the law to catch up. This Parliamentary term, you have the opportunity to free millions of hens from cages in Aotearoa and show the world that we stand for kindness. It’s time to deliver the kind of change that Kiwis voted for. When will you fulfil Labour’s promise to free hens from cages?
