Based around the quote from Sir Winston Churchill: “I like pigs. Dogs look up to
us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.”, the campaign has been mailed
to 195,000 existing RSPCA supporters.

 

It highlights the abuse of pigs in Europe and asks supporters to complete a demand
for better welfare standards for pigs addressed to the President of the European
Commission.

 

The pack, produced by Whitewater, also includes a donation request to support the
campaign.
