TOWIE star and animal rights campaigner Pete Wicks has recalled a harrowing experience that led him to call for Britain to legislate a fur import and sales ban.
The government ordered the last UK fur farm to close its doors back in 2000, but is now importing fur from overseas and in an exclusive interview with Mirror, Pete explained how he came to be involved in the campaign to bring an end to these imports.
He said: "The reason I first got involved is I've worked quite closely with an amazing charity called Humane Society International and five years ago, I went out to dog meat farms in South Korea with them to shut down a dog meat farm and from that it kind of went into fur farms as well.
