McCartney boycots animal-testing charities

Sir Paul McCartney has been praised by animal rights group PETA after announcing plans to boycott cancer charities who test on animals. This is especially big news since Paul is completely dedicated to supporting cancer charities since the passing of his wife, Linda. But now, he's being more selective.

"When Linda died I said I would support cancer charities. Animal rights groups wrote to me pointing out that many were heavily into vivisection - and it's true. A doctor we knew out in America just admitted it as a matter of fact, innocently, like 'Well, sure we do.' What he doesn't realise is that he won't get a donation out of me for that very fact. There are better alternatives but you're not allowed to challenge the status quo."

That's a strong statement from someone who cares a lot about animals and about fighting cancer! We like his principles, and we also like his latest single!
