Police arrested dozens of vegan activists today after they stormed dairy plants across the country and promised to wage their campaign against the UK’s dairy giants until there were ‘supermarket shortages’.
Animal Rebellion protestors arrived at Arla and Muller’s processing plants to drill through truck tyres and fill pipes with expanding foam as they launched a second day of direct action.
