A bit late, but please click on this link and sign the petition against this. Many many people rely on herbal remedies for themselves and their pets. Please pass this link on. Thanks.

That's shocking, and seems a violation of peoples rights! I signed, hope it counts as I'm not in a EU country .......

It's dangerous IMO - more folk will try and make their own herbal remedies whilst not necessarily understanding what they are doing. What will happen to Herbalists? I used to go to a very good chap in our local town. See him still at all sorts of fairs and summer festivals.

And where there's a demand, a supply will appear ... can anyone say "black market" ?
