237: “Humane-Washing”: the misinformation and misleading advertising about where our meat comes from.
Episode 237
Monday, 27 April, 2026
Rosalind English talks to animal law protection solicitor Edie Bowles of the Animal Law Foundation and Veronica Wiggins, who directs campaigns to protect consumers against misleading advertising. We explore the widespread and systemic misrepresentation of our food animals as leading happy healthy free range lives when in fact 85 % of animals are subject to inhumane conditions in factory farms. For a deeper dive into the whole problem of "humane washing" here is a recent study. Animal Law Foundation reports on animal welfare enforcement and other legal insights can be found here.Law Pod UK is published by 1 Crown Office Row.
