Mild Lanky with the odd touch of rural Hampshire.

Presumably they would qualify as "the bestest fans in the country" as long as you viewed the Peoples Republic of Portsea as an independent state, ( and if certainly is in a 'state' ).

But from reading the article it may be that Georgie Porgie doesn't agree.

That is just sooooo easy to hijack. How many nutjobs haven't signed up ?

Well, that is one person's opinion. ( possibly 2, as by starting this thread I presume that Trousers agrees ). We shall have to wait and see what the 'work experience Chancellor' manages to concoct for his next financial statement.

Only buy British....

Have they had the -10 for coming out of admin imposed yet ?

So where do you end up if you ask for directions to Havant ?

Badgers are people too !

And David Cameron, ex of Eton and Cambridge, doesn't know what the English translation of Magna Carta is. What on earth would the Chief Whip make of him ?

If there is a need to 'manage' the population for it's own good then admit it, culling in itself isn't controversial for other species, but here the Government are dressing it up as something it is not. There is also an interesting link on the page you quote : "Badger cull divides Tories Vaccination better method to stop bovine TB infection in cattle, says thinktank" http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2012/mar/26/badger-cull-bovine-tb-cattle-vaccination?INTCMP=ILCNETTXT3487

So why not inoculate cattle rather than killing badgers ? ( Edit : they do this in Ethiopia so why not here ? )
-
The simple fact is that we are debating BOVINE TB; if we eradicated all badgers there would then be a clamour to extend the culling of deer, which also harbour the disease. In fact most mammals can to some extent be carriers, and this is, of course, ignoring the main place to find it, and the initial point of infection from where it started to spread between species - cattle !

What about this ?

Quite possibly, but there are badgers in Scotland : "Although Scotland does not support the high densities of badgers that are to be found in the south-west of England, the species is quite common particularly in the lower-lying, more fertile parts of the country. While the Scottish badger population overall is probably stable, there are areas where badgers appear to be on the increase. There are no accurate figures for the total population in Scotland, but it has been estimated to be around 25,000." ( http://www.snh.org.uk/publications/on-line/wildlife/badgersanddevelopment/biology.asp ) "The results suggest that there are between 7300 and 11200 badger main setts in Scotland. It is estimated that approximately 7.1-10.4% of 1-km squares in Scotland contain at least one main sett, that approximately 12.7-17.2% of squares contain at least one active sett of some kind and that approximately 17.2-23.2% of squares contain some form of current badger activity." "The highest estimated densities were found in Borders and Lothian, with moderately high estimated densities in Fife, Grampian and Dumfries and Galloway. Estimated densities in Central region, Highland region and Tayside were much lower, with intermediate estimated densities in Strathclyde.

"To protect its OTF status, in addition to the existing pre- and post-movement TB testing arrangements for direct moves of cattle from high TB incidence areas in England and Wales to Scotland (or for moves from high incidence areas in England and Wales to Scotland via a market), there is now a new requirement for bovine animals of 42 days of age or more, from low TB incidence areas of England (3 and 4 yearly tested parishes) to be skin tested before movement to Scotland unless: they have spent their whole lives in low incidence areas; or they are being sent direct to slaughter in Scotland. This new requirement came into force on 28 February 2010. " http://archive.defra.gov.uk/foodfarm/farmanimal/diseases/atoz/tb/control/scotland.htm

Ramirez, Lallana ? Really ?

Presumably they thought Danny Fox was world class.
-
How long did that goal kick take just as added time kicked in ?
-
Total age of the starting 11s puts Saints as the younger group.

When did we last score 4 in the 2nd half ?
