in your list of who is to blame - you missed one: the so called 'royal family'. They own and run shooting estates - their position and the fact that they enjoy the misplaced respect of so many ill informed people reinforces the notion that shooting birds is normal. Their ridiculous hand wringing over environmental issues is completely hypocritical

Remember Andy the paedo's comment in the Maitlis interview ?

'It was just a normal shooting weekend'

Privileged sickos abusing the law as expected, bent police, bent lawyers bent judiciary, it will only end when an honourable, decent government is elected, if ever...

Another reason why this abhorrently barbaric and completely uneccessary cruelty and murder must stop!!

I agree wholeheartedly. The killing of birds and other animals has to stop. How does Animal welfare and other so called humane societies let them get away with this?

If you go into shooting country you will come across sights such as the road full oh pheasants. They see people as a source of feed. You see them waddling about the fields, hundreds of them. It is about as difficult as shooting a chicken. There is some kind of servile sycophancy sbout some people ‘ooooh ooooh Charlie ffarnes-Barney’s does this do look at me in my itchy arse tweed getup aren’t I IT!’
