>Labour adopts plans for ‘random’ culling of badgers
“Dropping every plan”
Should be Labour’s three word slogan.
Same whingers on here moaning that labour isn’t following a tory plan?
the scientific advice about culling badgers was that it tended to increase the spread of TB as unsurprisingly the culling of badgers meant that a lot of badgers thought to themselves that now might be a good time to move.
Labours manifesto pledge for those like me who was interested in whether they was honouring their promises.
>“And we will work with farmers and scientists on measures to eradicate Bovine TB, protecting livelihoods, so that we can end the ineffective badger cull.”
“Badgers are a protected species **because they face high levels of cruelty and mistreatment**. In 1992, the Protection of Badgers Act (PBA) gave badgers across the UK unrivalled protection.”
None of that survives when profit is on the line, apparently.
