I live in Wales and today received my Join Us letter from Reform UK, complete with SAE which I posted back to them, immediately, empty. If every other person in Wales did this, Reform would spend over £1.5 million on postage. Not sorry. Join me Cymru.

It won't stop until grouse shooting ends.
The whole industry thinks it's their birth right to kill everything that poses a threat to grouse.
What a very sad place we are in.

Just watched the Birdsong documentary on BBC4. It follows an Irish ornithologist trying to record the songs of all 200 species in Ireland before some species vanish. Particular highlights are the Skellig Isles footage, the last pair of Ring Ouzel & the murmuration www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

The maximum potential sentence available for this crime is 12 mths custodial and/or £40K fine.
Dylan Boyle got a £400 fine because apparently he'd behaved himself for 6 mths since conviction.
That'll learn him.
