UK moves to ban boiling lobsters, shrimp, crabs and langoustines alive, recognizing their capacity for pain
The measure, to be implemented by 2030, would also apply to crustaceans and cephalopod mollusks, including octopuses, all of which are recognized as sentient beings under British law.

As part of its new animal welfare policy, the Labour government stated that "live boiling is not an acceptable killing method." This ban would complement a law passed by the Conservative Party in 2022, the Animal Welfare (Sentience) Act, which recognizes that decapod crustaceans (crabs, shrimp, lobsters, langoustines and crayfish) and cephalopod mollusks (octopuses, cuttlefish and squid) are sentient beings and experience pain just like other animals. All of these species will be covered by the future law.
The Labour government now intends to go further than the 2022 law – which was largely symbolic in its recognition – aiming for implementation by 2030. The UK would join Switzerland, Norway, Austria and New Zealand, where this practice is already banned.
