22 October, 2012 at 4:07 pm #508047is there enough time to debate this in the house of commons to actually stop it going ahead this year if they vote against culling?……….the bbc link says the cull was due to start ‘in a few days’…..that article was online on the 14th? :shock:

I got an automated reply from my MP – wonder if she’ll reply in person? :-k

The cull has been delayed until next Summer so there is time to get this ridiculous decision overturned completely.
Thank you for all those that signed the petition.
