British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has received a letter signed by 50 of Britain’s biggest stars, including Dame Judi Dench, Brian May Cbe, Leona Lewis, Gary Lineker OBE, James Arthur, Thandie Newton OBE, Alesha Dixon, Ricky Gervais, Mollie King and Dame Twiggy Lawson, urging him to implement a UK ban on the sale of real animal fur.
Animal protection organisation Humane Society International/UK which leads the #FurFreeBritain campaign in collaboration with other animal charities, is hopeful that a 2021 ban is possible now that the Brexit transition is completed.
Fur farming was banned in Britain almost two decades ago in 2003 as it was deemed too cruel. But since then Britain has imported more than £800 million worth of fur from countries including Finland, China, France and Poland, where animals experience severe suffering and distress on fur farms. This is a double standard that needs to end.

Made In Chelsea's on-off couple Sam Thompson and Tiffany Watson are on the rocks again, and now Sam has turned to Spencer Matthews for advice.
After finding out that Tiff cheated on Sam while in Hong Kong, Spencer recommends that he should go and "chill" with Jamie [Laing] in Ibiza and take some time to think.
Made in Chelsea returns: 7 new series secrets revealed by the cast, from Binky's love life to Spencer's big comeback
"I think I need time," Sam explains to Spencer after detailing where he stands with Tiff. "I just don't know where I'm at or what I'm thinking about right now."
After suggesting Sam meet up with Jamie, Spencer later adds: "I'm not being an arsehole, but if part of you didn't want to be in the relationship, this is a nice easy out for you and you need to just think, 'Is this something I actually genuinely want?...

The Made in Chelsea La summer spin-off saw heartbreak for Binky, a love triangle for Jamie, and a long-overdue reunion with the blue-hued and totally "crazy" Gabrielle.
California dreaming seems worlds away for the cast now, who are back in chilly SW3 for its celebratory 10th series - but what can we expect from the gallivanting gang next?
The stars sat down for a good old gossip (and bitch) with Digital Spy, so here's 7 things we've learned from this series below:
1. Binky and Jp aren't over
But then - they're not exactly on again either. It's complicated.
Here's Binky for more... "I don't really know what's going on," she admitted helpfully. "But obviously I still have feelings for him. He's not very clever when it comes to relationships. So I think he's been really silly."
The ever-decisive Jp made even less sense as he reflected: "What's important in this series...

Made in Chelsea just keeps bringing the drama - both genuinely heartwrenching (Alik and Louise) and nauseating (Elliot's penis pictures). There was plenty going on in this week's episode, so read on for our 14 favourite moments...
1. We need to talk about Proudlock's hair.
We've been holding this in, but we just can't anymore. We've long admired Proudlock's fascinating sense of style, but his new hair is just so avant garde that we don't think we're quite ready for it. Just look at it go!
We're officially obsessed, so we were a bit disappointed when the man bun returned later on in the episode. Luckily, Proudlock's habit of invading the personal space of his mates was still in full flow - just look at him sitting with Stevie.
2. The Chelsea whispers going on with Louise and Alik's romance.
Look, obviously everything on Made in Chelsea gets...

We think this week's Made in Chelsea may have introduced us to something very special indeed. History-making. Record-breaking. The first ever passive-aggressive high five. Who knew?
As well as all that hand clapping, though, there was plenty of other stuff to sink our teeth into - tears, cold stares, a fantastic bois' night out and much, much more. Read on for the 23 best bits from the episode...
1. The bit when... Sam accidentally called Alik his boyfriend.
"Honey, I'm home!" Yep, Alik was back in the UK this week - thank goodness - but to be honest, Sam seemed more excited about his return than Louise did.
"This feels a little bit more homey," Alik smiled in the way only Alik can smile. "I've got my girlfriend." "And Your Boyfriend," Sam squealed, before realising what he'd said.
"That was a bit awkward."
2. The bit when... Spencer gathered the bois.
Just Look At Him.

Oh, we've missed Spencer Matthews' smug smirking on our screen. Luckily, he was back on Made in Chelsea this week... with a girlfriend! I know, imagine! And that wasn't all the drama that was going on down in ol' Chelsea, as Binky was furious, Mytton was being naughty, Stephanie was making things awkward and oh so much more. Read on for our 24 best bits from the episode...
1. The bit when... the bois made a great entrance.
Matthews. Mytton. Jordan. Laing. It's not a bad combo for an opening scene, is it? And they made sure to arrive in the episode in style, in matching convertibles - with the top down. Of course this all sounds very cool but in actuality Jamie almost lost his hat.
Smooth.
2. The bit when... Spencer revealed he had a girlfriend.
Probably fair to say the bois were shocked. And when Spenny revealed that he was being faithful,...

Ollie Locke has revealed that he has given up on reality television.
The Made in Chelsea and Celebrity Big Brother star told The Mirror that he has no plans to do more as he is "happier" out of the spotlight.
Made in Chelsea: When will this lover's Tiff end? 23 best bits
He said: "I'm happier now I've left because I don't have four million people a week watching me going through breaks-ups.
"I've been in a relationship for six months. I've done a lot of public eye relationships. I'm much better when it's just the two of us.
"I always think it ruins it a little bit. Not one couple in Towie or Made in Chelsea are still together, and if you think about how Towie has been going for 12 seasons, that's a very long time."
He added that you have to be a "really good, strong couple" to...

We're just going to put it out there - we are loving Andy this series. He's getting everything right. He's being harsh when necessary, a bro when needed, and funny when we want him to be. It seems, though, that this opinion is not shared with everyone - say, Louise, who kind of liked Andy last week until Rosie made her see that he is the most evil man to have walked the planet.
We got all the fallout from that this week, along with plenty of other stuff - Tiff vs Sam, for example, which spilled into Lucy vs Binky and Binky vs Fran in the way only a Chelsea storyline can. And Alik ate snails. Hooray! Read on for the 23 best bits...

We're not sure about you, but we're feeling a little depressed after this week's Made in Chelsea. Don't get us wrong, there were plenty of lighter moments - from Sam flinging his tea towel about the place willy-nilly to Jamie's willy jokes, but there were lots of sad misunderstandings and sad faces. It's all got Very Dramatic all of a sudden. Read on for our 23 best bits this week...
1. The bit when... Jamie, Binky, Lucy and Stevie were putting the world to rights.
"We are the righteous ones!" Lucy declared, and who are we to argue? Unfortunately, Jamie had to take it a little bit far, didn't he? Searching for someone to bitch about he grinned: "Hands up if you think Josh is a dick!" We don't think Stevie was quite ready to joke about it, to be honest.
It probably didn't help when Jamie told him to stop...

We don't know when it happened. We really don't. But at some point we fell in love with Alik on Made in Chelsea. He's just a happy chappy, right? Not this week, though, because amid all the drama it emerged that Louise - who we really should just call "Wheeze" at this point, since no-one on this show ever pronounces her full name - had been up to no good. Or had she? Who knows? Read on for all the details of that and everything else that happened in SW3 this week with our 25 best bits from the episode...
1. The bit when... Binky celebrated her shooting success with a shimmy
Amazing work. No-one really explained why the girls had gone clay pigeon shooting, but maybe it was so they could be rude. "You're quite good at pulling," Louise snorted at Rosie. "Speaking of big pistols, where's your boyfriend?" Binky asked Louise.
