Animal Rebellion protest at Muller Dairy site near Droitwich

Animal Rebellion has been trying to stop lorries from Muller Dairy site in Hampton Lovett supplying fresh milk across the country.

Members of the group have been camping on top of lorries and drilling the tyres of several Muller lorries at the Muller Dairy site since Sunday (September 4). 

The animal rights activists said they want to disrupt the supply of milk and achieve a plant-based future. 

Members of the group are expected to stay in the area until Saturday (September 10).
