Katherine Jenkins Gets More Than She Bargained For At Harrod’s
“SHAME on Katherine” chant the protestors as Katherine Jenkins arrives by horse-drawn carriage to open the Harrod’s sale.
Leona Lewis reportedly refused to open the sale because of Harrods’ policy of selling fur, so Jenkins stepped in. Although, Ms Jenkins is being followed by a group of bagpipe players, and the dangers of that are self-evident.
Not that Jenkins got the nod before 52-year-old Sex And The City star Kim Cattrall had been sounded out. And this is Lewis who can seen sporting a Prada bag – Prada being best known for its use of fake leather goods.
Says campaigner John Wilson, from the Coalition to Abolish the Fur Trade:
“We are gathered here today because of our disgust at Ms Jenkins who professes to be against animal cruelty and the fur trade.”
Says Jenkins:
“I was very excited to join the sales - I am a girl’s girl, so obviously this is my idea of fun. Personally I do not eat meat or wear fur, but people are entitled to their opinions.”
Jenkins and the small fury al-Fayed visited the shop’s pets department, where she put her name down for three four-foot long fox’s, five fingers of mink and some leopard-print socks.
When aked about the furs, Mr Al-Fayed explained that they were all killed by Prince Phil droving a white Fiat Uno…

Becky
I work with animals and have seen those videos when they were first circulated about 7 or 8 years ago, by small and unsung and caring charities.
I notice you have selectively edited my post , and ignored my suggestion to contasct politicians and encourage sanctions on countries like China, Korea and the Philippines.
What did you think of those caring so called activists who let the beagles out of their cages at the laboratories to a horrible and certain death without food or a controlled elimination/withdrawal of drugs.

Not ALL of “these protestors are anarchists” thats a ridiculous stereotype and hugely offensive to the majority of them who genuinely want to see this cruel, unnecessary trade stopped. June I urge you to go watch an animal being skinned alive (youtube/google videos) then you might just understand why these protestors are trying to protect the animals.

Wonder if she rendered them with ‘Time to say goodbye’?
Trouble is a lot of these protestors are anarchists and not there to protect animals.
MPs can help a lot here by encouraging sanctions against countries who do savagely kill animals for their coats.
And puppy farmers here who are in it solely for the money
