British fairgrounds should stop featuring horses and other animals on their carousels because it encourages exploitation, campaign group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) has said.
The animal rights charity wants them to be replaced with objects that celebrate human achievement.
“It would be wonderful to see UK fairgrounds replace animal-shaped carousel figures with vehicles such as cars, unicycles, tractors, aeroplanes, rockets, and bulldozers – or more whimsical designs like shooting stars, rainbows, or brooms,” said Elisa Allen, of Peta.

But most of her suggestions are exploiting polluting vehicles. A broom is a symbol of female subservience.
I am offended and want to complain. Is there a form I have to fill in? I have a slot tomorrow when I can feel offended between 10 & 11am.
