I would beg everyone, if they possibly can, to sign this petition: a request for the Government to legislate to stop the shooting of hares during their peak breeding season.

Mad that this is currently permitted...

“If they’d explained everything about Brexit, I’d probably have voted Remain!”

@lewis_goodall visits The Talbot in Blackpool, the UK’s first Reform pub, where the owner regrets Brexit - but stops short of blaming one of the key figures who sold it to him: Nigel Farage.

This is thuggery from Trump and Vance, plain and simple.

They are bullying the brave true patriot Zelensky into accepting a deal which effectively hands victory to Russia. Unless the UK and Europe step up, we are facing a betrayal of Ukraine.

The big question arising from this bizarre Cairngorms lynx story is not how the poor things got there; but why lynx, a secretive, beautiful British native species no larger than a labrador, have not been officially reintroduced to Britain long ago.

The malevolence of a small rural cabal opposed to any kind of wildlife recovery and the stranglehold it has over weak-kneed government officials cannot be overstated.

The British public overwhelmingly wants the return of beavers and storks and eagles and lynx and vibrant landscapes singing with life. But a few puce-faced individuals, stuck in a mindset of ruthless exploitation and cold dominion over nature, just won’t allow any of it. That’s why nothing ever happens.

Life is short, and you can well see why some people are tempted to take matters into their own hands. Every single wild-living beaver in Britain today is there as a result of unlicensed releases, not to mention goshawks, wild boar and a host of other recovering native species. They returned *in spite of* not because of government. Meanwhile the release of 50 million non native pheasants into the landscape each year is waved through without a shred of paperwork.

The Scottish authorities were so terrified this week of the wrath of rural vested interests that they turned out hordes of police, supported by acquiescent conservation blob employees, with guns and cages and heat seeking night sights and drones to seize a family of semi-tame tabbies unfortunate enough to have been left out in the woods. You’d have thought the police might have better things to do.

Spare your outrage not for the fools who presumably thought they could make a difference by putting them there, but for a rural policy system that is entirely corrupted from top to bottom. And be happy that this particular lynx family is now warm and fed and safe from the keepers’ guns in Edinburgh Zoo.

N.B. If you doubt anything I’ve said - ask yourself why native, vital beavers are *still* illegal in England, in spite of reams of science calling for their return. One Defra minister after the next has promised to legalise beavers before being bullied into silence by shadowy rural lobbyists. What’s the betting there’s no good news on beavers in 2025.

If we could all just take a moment to appreciate the stunning cinematic beauty of this scene.

The bravado, the little shake of the hips, the half brick to the back of the head and, of course, the coup de grâce…..the agonizing strike to the knackers.
