John Gale - Badger Genocide

Badger Genocide


In blighty the so-called ‘alliance’ government of the Imperialist Invaders, with the backing of the Germanic royalty, the Norman aristocracy and the general human populace (over 60 million mongrel descendants of Angles, Saxons, Jutes, Vikings, Normans, etc) have launched a genocidal attack on the mere 250,000 population one of the oldest inhabitants (Meles meles aka Brock, grey pate, bawson, baget ; broch, pryf penrith, pryf llwyd [Welsh] ;  brochlach [Scottish Gaelic] ; broc [Irish Gaelic]) of this sacred isle.
The politicians have decided that for this ‘cull’ to be affective, at least 70% of the population have to be slaughtered.
 
P.S.  In 1998 the Government undertook a 9-year[1] large scale field experiment to ascertain the effectiveness of badger culling and Bovine TB. The result was “culling of Badgers increased the incidence of infection in cattle”
The results are discussed at length in a 287-page UK government study and in numerous scientific papers, including several in Nature 2
, 3.
 
So is the government’s decision to let farmers shoot badgers scientifically sound?
 
No, says John Krebs, a zoologist, member of the House of Lords, and principal of Jesus College at the University of Oxford, who recommended running the 9-year study. “They went against the science on political grounds.”
