‘Visiting the Evil’ demo at HLS customer
Astellas (Yamanouchi) in Holland
We said we would track Impex down and we
have. After a demo at their premises last year
they moved out within 48 hours, and sneaked
off and signed a 3 year lease on the above
premises last July. This is a truly disgusting
company who have shipped many animals to
their deaths at Huntingdon. Gotcha!

NEWS IN BRIEF
The Italian Job: lab animals
get freed for World Week
During World Week for Laboratory Animals,
Italian activists walked into a university
in Milan in broad daylight and rescued
12 beagles, rabbits and loads of mice.
Current HLS customer vow
never to work with them again
A blow to HLS came recently when current
HLS customer Cerexagri vowed that they
would never use HLS again. This came
after activists in the US had held several
demos against Cerexagri.
To: SHAC
Huntingdon Life Sciences (“HLS”) has
recently concluded a fourth and final field
test for Cerexagri. These government required
tests did not involve the use of any
laboratory animals and were part of the
registration process for a new compound
that will be offered as a viable replacement
for methyl bromide, which is being phased
out under the terms of the Montreal Protocol
to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Upon receipt of the written report, Cerexagri
will no longer engage the services of
HLS.

plans to do any further business with HLS.

Spotlight on
PDP Couriers:
The main logistical
supplier to HLS
Some years ago a small company came to our
attention called PDP Couriers after we were
leaked information about the Bristol Oncology
Centre and their dealings with HLS. The courier
company that had made the deliveries of samples
to the centre was a company called PDP
Couriers based in Middlesex. So we contacted
PDP and asked them whether they would agree
to make a statement saying that would never
deliver to HLS again. They did this very quickly.
Now a number of supporters have asked us in
the past how do we know when a company is
telling the truth. Well the honest answer is that
we always take statements at face value whatever
we may secretly be thinking and can do
no more until we can prove different. With PDP
this didn’t take long in coming as it came to our
attention that they were still making deliveries
to HLS. So we contacted them and at first they
strenuously denied it but then when
they realised that we KNEW they were lying
they said “Oh we were only delivering to Centralabs”.
Centralabs are the clinical trials part of
HLS, operating out of their site at Alconbury. By
this time it had also come to our attention that
they were advertising at
vivisection conferences and were delivering to
HLS in an unmarked silver transit van reg EF04
TXA.
As if that wasn’t bad enough, at the end of last
year we were told by an HLS worker that PDP
were dealing with over half the foreign shipments
to HLS from foreign customers (which is
roughly 75% of all of Huntingdon’s business),
including Japan where a company called Hubnet
deals with the japanese end of things and
then passes stuff on to PDP. We will always
find out the liars in the finish and have come
to learn that PDP are a VERY IMPORTANT
company to HLS. Contact PDP and Hubnet and
politely ask them to stop dealing with HLS:
