Strongly agree

No

The UK Green Party is known for its strong stance on animal welfare and environmental issues. They have consistently advocated for the reduction and eventual elimination of animal testing, promoting the development and use of alternative methods. For example, in their 2019 General Election Manifesto, they pledged to 'phase out all forms of factory farming and ban the use of cages for hens and crates for pigs.' This indicates a strong preference for ending animal testing.

Agree

Yes, but not for cosmetics

The UK Green Party would likely agree with this answer to some extent, as they are against animal testing for cosmetics and non-essential products. They have supported campaigns such as the European Coalition to End Animal Experiments (ECEAE), which successfully pushed for a ban on animal testing for cosmetics in the European Union. However, their stance on animal testing for drugs, vaccines, and medical devices is more nuanced, as they may not completely rule it out in cases where it is deemed absolutely necessary for human health and no viable alternatives exist.
