BARC fully supports all legal and peaceful forms of protest. BARC respectfully requests that all letters, emails and phone calls made in support of our campaigns are polite.

It goes without saying that nothing contained on this website or in any BARC publication is intended to encourage or incite illegal acts.

BARC does not encourage or incite any illegal activities.

BARC does not encourage or incite repetitive, threatening or abusive communications with any companies or employees of said companies, be this by telephone call, fax, email or letter.

Any names and addresses of companies are published for the sole purpose of allowing members of the public to voice their concerns and carry out protests in a legal manner.

BARC has no links or involvement with the Animal Liberation Front or the Animal Rights Militia, whoever they may be.

Many of the demo reports are received by BARC anonymously and we cannot take any responsibility for the content or accuracy of these reports. Readers must bear in mind that certain demonstrations e.g. home demonstrations and office occupations are now illegal in the UK although they are perfectly legal in other countries, and the inclusion of reports relating to these demos abroad does in no sense amount to encouragement to do similar demos in the UK.

The comments expressed on this web site are not necessarily the views of BARC or the site editors.

Anyone carrying out protesting activities against any company is encouraged to familiarise themselves with the law by getting a copy of the Freebeagles legal booklet available from BARC and visiting the independent legal website www.freebeagles.org. Everyone, is encouraged to read Liberty’s Guide to Human Rights which is available on the web http://www.yourrights.org.uk/ or at your local library.
