Parliament has today debated suspending the trade agreement with the Faroe Islands until they agree to ban the Grind - the slaughter of hundreds, or even thousands, of whales and dolphins.

It follows a petition started by Dominic Dyer, which reached 100,000 signatories recently and was therefore eligible for a Parliamentary debate.

You can read more here and watch the video above, which includes the Government's agreement that the Grind must stop and what it intends to do.
