A remarkable protest recently disrupted Tesco’s Annual General Meeting as animal rights campaigners raised concerns about pig welfare at a Lincolnshire farm. The activists interrupted the meeting to bring attention to what they claim are inadequate living conditions for pigs supplied to Tesco from a local farm. The incident underscores ongoing issues between animal welfare groups and large retailers, with the activists seeking enhanced measures for animal care within the supply chain. In response, Tesco has reiterated its dedication to high welfare standards and declared an investigation into the allegations. This occurrence has elicited a broader conversation within the public sphere concerning ethical farming practices and the role of major corporations in upholding animal welfare. The original story was covered by news.google.com and adapted for The Lincoln Post.
