The Blue Bicycle demo York.

The Blue Bicycle resturant in York placed foie gras on the menu as a public protest against York council voting against foie gras and it was also placed on the menu in favour of force feeding and against Animal Rights campaigners.

Sunday 9th December, DEMO York, Blue Bicycle
This year International Animal Rights Day falls on a Monday.
So most events will be taking place at the wkend.

With the Blue Bicycle been YAFAs (http://www.yafa.co.uk/index.html)main focus , there will be a demo outside there on the Sunday 9th December between 12pm- 2:30pm to recognise International Animal Rights Day . There maybe demos after this time aswell in York to attend.
It is important that as many people as possible turn up for this as possible for lots of obvious reasons.

If people can attend demos before this date, please let us know, for both week days and wkends, Thank you.

Please contact the 'Blue Bicycle' restaurant to express your disgust and horror that they still sell foie gras and ask that they drop it from their menu.

Depsite many protests and loosing 100s of customers, having days where they close early due to having NOT ONE SINGLE customer all day, due to YAFA demoing them on an almost daily basis and exposing their EHO report to passers by and potential customers and even loosing their website (Please note YAFA were not responsible for their website coming down) .

Despite knowing the Natioanl Day of Action against Foie Gras is coming up and having what may be 50people demoing them on one day and more, depsite having to be in regular contact with the police to report that there are demonstrators outside their restaurant - claiming one day there are 6-10 people shouting screaming etc, when there were only TWO people holding a banner and handing out leaflets and EHO reports!! Despite having to communicate with the police about our weekend long demo against them and organising it. And much more ...


The Blue Bicycle are still refusing to remove foie gras from their menu.

Placed on the menu to be contraversial , foie gras still remains on their menu.

YAFA are having another demonstration THIS Sunday -9th December 11:45am-2:30pm . This is to also recognise International Animal Rights Day.
Please come along if you can and show your support for the Foie Gras Free UK campaign.
