Nude Protesters Converge On Australian Embassy As Australian Wool Boycott Resumes
Boycott Relaunched After Wool Industry Groups Fail to Come to the Negotiating Table and Improve Conditions for Sheep
Dublin, Ireland — Nude PETA members—with the Australian flag painted across their bloody bodies—will hold a lively protest at the Australian embassy against the wool industry’s refusal to embrace a landmark agreement between PETA and a prominent group of wool producers that would have resulted in an immediate reduction of lamb mutilations and an end to PETA’s international boycott campaign. Flanked by giant posters of bloody sheep and signs reading, “Australia: Stop Mutilating Lambs,” the naked PETA posse will officially re-launch the Australian wool boycott:
Date: Friday, October 7
Time: 12.00 noon sharp
Place: Australian Embassy, Fitzwilton House, Wilton Terrace, Dublin 2. (The Embassy is situated between Leeson Street and Baggot St Bridge, on the town side of the canal.)
This action in Dublin is one of multiple protests taking place around the world this week to mark the resumption of PETA’s international boycott of Australian wool after a moratorium was announced in August. The boycott resumes after two major wool industry groups, Australian Wool Innovation (AWI) and Wool Producers, flatly rejected a landmark agreement between PETA and the Australian Wool Growers Association (AWGA) that would have resulted in live export reforms and an immediate and industry-wide reduction in lamb mutilations.
The agreement between PETA and AWGA provided a timetable for phasing out mulesing mutilations (in which skin and flesh are sliced from lambs’ backsides with gardening shears) and would have ended exports of live sheep to countries failing to meet Australian animal welfare standards. AWI and others refused to do anything other than criticize the plan during the 45-day moratorium, despite the urging of major retailers—including Benetton, Gap Inc., Liz Claiborne, Lands’ End, L.L. Bean, Eddie Bauer, Jones Apparel Group, Nordstrom, and Ann Taylor—which have all expressed support for the PETA/AWGA agreement and interest in the new, more humane brand of wool created by the agreement. The new brand will provide retailers worldwide with wool from farmers who are part of the structured plan to end mulesing and live exports to countries that do not meet Australian domestic animal welfare standards.
“The wool industry has had 45 days to agree to consider the compromise agreement, but has done little more than lip service to their claims to care about animal welfare,”says PETA Europe’s managing director, President Ingrid E. Newkirk. “It’s only a matter of time before AWI and Wool Producers realize that they won’t be able to give their wool away until they agree to stop torturing lambs and sheep.”

though performed naked, which include animals?
no animal or aboriginal was harmed during the writing of this comment.
almost 50% expressed favour for the adoption of a new flag, which as its symbolism aimed to include the "aboriginal past", though the vast majority of their tribal lands have been exploited and till comparatively recently in terms of colonialism they were subject to the most appaling genocide.
So which flag will the PETA people be painting over their hairy bits & erectile tissue?
I find myself unaccountably interested to see this particular protest. Let's hope we get some good pictures on Indymedia - it'd be a shame not to do the story full justice.
I am all for protest if it means that women can freely express up front their inner sincerity and that this expression must be holistic uninhibited and beautiful.
I must confess that I feel flushed and endowed with firmness stature and upright charachter by your example and am ready to thrust confidently forward with this campaign.
Hello Everybody,
Yes you are all very welcome to come along, and we are more than likely stripping off completely naked - it would be great to come along to this event!
Any questions just write or call us
For those of you expecting a titilating experience, and the sight of naked, nationalised, nubian ladies prancing naked around the place, I'd say, you'd be better off in your local niteclub. But one thing that could be taken out of this is a viable alternative to the disgusting and tortuous practice of shearing sheep of their wool which keeps them warm during the freezing austrailian summer and winter. They probably don't shave themselves,PETA Ladies legs&Pits, PETA blokes, probably just hairy, could just shear themselves and provide us with enough wool substitute for a whole, well, not a lot I suppose, willie warmer perhaps. Nope, sorry, on second thoughts, better keep shearing them poor old sheep then.
