Wow! That surprised me.
Our e-petition to ban driven grouse shooting, which will close at midnight on Thursday (so only three days left to get your friends to sign) raced past 32,000 signatures at 22:32 last night. And it was racing along.
Makes me wonder whether 35,000 might be possible – probably not, I guess, but makes me wonder…
Please sign this e-petition to make the British grouse industry take a long look at itself in the mirror, and government engage with reforming this unsustainable land use.

That’s the power of social media!! And as a bonus, that 32k people all wondering why they didn’t hear about the petition from the RSPB.
Still, you’ll know for next time.
Is Rob’s Facebook page up and running?
Wouldn’t it be great if we could get the RSPB to urge it’s more than one million members to sign the e-petition to ban driven grouse shooting. I fail to understand why an organisation purporting to be a bird protection society, sits on the sidelines and does very little in the effort to bring to an end to this barbaric outdated so-called “sport” of Red Grouse killing for fun. This so-called sport is responsible for the uncontrolled illegal persecution of our legally protected birds of prey and the relentless destruction of our moorland environment.
