Friends of the Earth’s Dave Timms said: “The ECP has given a damning verdict on the applications. We hope the NFU will get the message and give up trying to bring back these dangerous chemicals. Ministers must now push for the ban on these chemicals to be made permanent.” Fantastic news , Dave . I just hope the NFU will get the message

An excellent idea , Dave . to have the estates licenced for grouse shooting . then as the RSPB says :- The RSPB is calling for the licensing of shooting estates, giving authorities the power to remove licences for shoots where illegal practices are detected. Shocking that so many Hen Harries are poisoned or shot :(.. and red kites DEFRA
