Former Baywatch star Pamela Anderson has written a letter to Prime Minster Theresa May, urging her to bring forward legislation on banning wild animal circuses in the UK, on behalf of PETA.

Anderson's letter comes after former PM David Cameron failed to ban wild animals from circuses by January 2015, and Anderson explained 'One of the things that I love the most about the UK is its strong reputation as a nation that opposes cruelty to animals. That's why my mouth dropped when I learned that Britain still has not banned wild animals from circuses. With all due respect, Brexit is complicated, but kissing circus animal acts goodbye is easy as pie. Animal acts are embarrassingly archaic and have no place in modern Britain – or anywhere else…. I'm currently in the UK and would welcome the chance to meet with you about this issue'.
