Um I'm not on Council (Trustees) - I'm on General Council. I don't have the answer to exactly what they did as we haven't had a meeting since but I know they were doing something.

Thanks Karen, well as an NRA member - I received nothing from the NRA about it - I have had twice weekly E-mails from BASC encouraging members to reply to the petition and E-mail WH Smith direct.

The last paragraph -
Readers can help us try to achieve this goal by ordering Animal Aid's postcards, addressed to leading High Street newsagents.

It seems that 15th Dec is the day to go WH Smiths and buy your magazines! ;)

I'll be visiting WHS on that day - not to buy but top take a large number of the leaflets for "further distribution" and recycling.
