The
United Nations have enlisted the help of fashion icons with the arm to improve
the regulation of the international arms trade; preventing weapons from
irresponsible owners. According to sources, the letter reads:
"Every year
an average of two bullets for every person on this planet are produced... With
so few global rules governing the arms trade, no one really knows where all
those bullets will end up - or whose lives they will tear apart. Under the
current system, there are less global controls on the sales of ammunition and
guns than on bananas and bottled water. It's a ridiculous situation."
Keira
Knightley, Vivienne Westwood, Jane Birkin, Sophie Dahl, Annie Lenox and Bianca
Jagger are some of the celebrities that have signed the letter to go to the UN
for a world government meeting today July 2. Whoever said the fashion industry
did not back and support good things?
