Mickey and Minnie spent 30 hours on the Disney building before coming down for a well-earned rest. Despite two meetings with Disney managers it seems that the US headquarters is refusing to admit that selling products for children containing toxic chemicals is not the action of a responsible company.
Disney product tested for toxic chemicals
Watch an interview
with campaigner Oliver Knowles at the scene.
Campaigner Mark Strutt added; "After spending nearly 30 hours at
Disney's HQ in London it has become apparent that Disney clearly
think it is acceptable to continue to sell products containing
dangerous chemicals to children. Their abject failure to do the
right thing means that this campaign will continue".
If irresponsible companies like Disney fail to stop selling
products with hazardous chemicals then the
governments must step in and do something about it.
We need your help to up the pressure on Disney - write to tell them to clean up their act.
