Moorland Vision

Sign our petition to the National Trust. Tell them not to replace the shooting tenant they're currently evicting from two moorland estates in the #PeakDistrict.

Looking forward to #birdfair at Rutland this year. How about a ban on plastic straws, helium filled balloon giveaways and other single use plastic at this year’s show? Or at least some kind of commitment to reduce their use during the show? @TheBirdfair

Looks like i too will become a member of NTS as they, unlike our @nationaltrust , do NOT allow trailhhunting/foxhunting on their land😀 https://t.co/WJXfftZQ3l

So, @nationaltrust has rejected Derbyshire Wildlife Trust's bid to help them manage our #PeakDistrict uplands without need for grouse shooting or raptor-killing. Read why @DerbysWildlife believes a "New Approach for our Uplands" is still needed. https://t.co/qePndPzftY @BBCDerby

@saintdavid2911 @SimonHareBBC @MoorlandVision @nationaltrust We were thinking of joining NT this year - but not now.
There should be zero tolerance for criminal activity.

[Simon Hare @SimonHareTV]

Campaigners from @MoorlandVision - who called on @PeakDistrictNT to stop grouse shooting on its Dark Peak estate - say the plans revealed yesterday (a mix of intensive GS, walked-up GS, GS with dogs and no shooting) are a "missed opportunity." https://t.co/JyBq17H4A1

National Trust set to initiate new grouse shooting leases in Peak District National Park. https://t.co/GY5f71QZYj @PeakDistrictNT @peakdistrict @natalieben @N_E_R_F @MoorlandVision #peakdistrict #stopkillinghenharriers

Missed opportunity: @nationaltrust announces it prefers to see #shooting rather than an ambitious moorland #rewilding partnership across the sensitive #PeakDistrict uplands in Derbyshire. https://t.co/81nPNpa5ZL @MarkAvery @SimonHareBBC @ChrisGPackham @DerbysWildlife

I stand with @BirdLifeEurope in supporting @EU_ECHA's proposal to #BanLead ammunition for hunting in wetlands. Save 1 million birds! https://t.co/Jed8QYXcqn

Back home from Notth Pennines now, bivvi gear drying out, and realising stupidity of hastily tweeting a mate's picture at face value. Doh! So maybe it wasn't #RobsonGreen we saw in the Hartside Cafe this lunchtime, either! #twittercrime

[Moorland Vision @MoorlandVision]

@GethinJones123 @DerbysWildlife @nationaltrust Ok, error accepted. Too hasty tweet of a mate's pic in the car home. Apols,

[Moorland Vision @MoorlandVision]

@GethinJones123 Ooops!

[Moorland Vision @MoorlandVision]

@GethinJones123 @DerbysWildlife @nationaltrust Simple. I'd suggest it's an over-emphasised red herring that you and others like to trot out whenever you're fearful that the status quo is changing against The key is in establishing an "ecological balance" which we don't have at present.

[Moorland Vision @MoorlandVision]

Just seen this trailer on the M6. Who doesn't love an informative number plate?

[Moorland Vision @MoorlandVision]

@GethinJones123 @DerbysWildlife @nationaltrust You must ask them that. My advice was to include the option of a bare minimum no of days of w/u shooting if @NationalTrust absolutely, definitely insisted on it. Otherwise the aim would be to restore a naturally balanced #ecosystem on 8,000 ha -something you'd know little about.

[Moorland Vision @MoorlandVision]

Actually, @DerbysWildlife have put in a bid to manage these #PeakDistrict moors. We await to hear whether @NationalTrust accept it, or prefer to remain rooted in their 19th century attitudes of supporting #hunting, killing and shooting #wildlife on their estates. https://t.co/ac5jm5RcWk

A grouse moor sympathetically managed for wildlife and walked-up grouse shooting. Hen harriers and raptors aplenty with a steady income generated by shooting. Time to put up or shut up.
