Mary Creagh MP, Labour’s Shadow Environment Secretary, commenting on a new report by the Conservative Bow Group opposing a badger cull, said:
“This damning report from the Tory Bow Group reaffirms that the Government’s big society badger cull will cost farmers more than it saves them, put a huge strain on the police, and will spread bovine TB in the short term as badgers move out of cull areas. Ministers should listen to the scientists and can this cull which is bad for farmers, bad for taxpayers and bad for wildlife.”
