Newsgroup name: uk.politics.animals

Summary:        UK political discussion concerning animals

Proponent:      Claire Speed <C.Speed@mcc.ac.uk>

Rationale:	At any given time it is possible to find discussions
		on UK animal issues in several different uk groups.
		To have a group specifically for these discussions
		will not only prevent unnecessary repetition of such
		traffic but will also keep these discussions off the
		groups where it is not appreciated. 

		Although there are doubts as to whether the existence
		of such a group will cause the relevant traffic to be
		redirected, it will at least mean that there is
		somewhere else that such discussions are supposed to
		be.

Charter:        The new group will be for the discussion of any
		political subject relevant to animal issues.

		Any material encouraging or condoning criminal
		activity is explicitly prohibited. 

Moderation:     No moderation

Advertising:    Advertising meetings and animal organisations
		is allowed on the condition that the advertisements
		are brief, succinct and (in the case of ongoing
		products) not reposted more often than once every
		three months.

Binaries:       No
