I’ve listened to his interview. It was mentioned that Wild Justice hoped to change legislation. I have a petition in the Scottish parliament which seeks to do exactly that in relation to wildlife crime. As a part of that I have undertaken action similar to that which Wild Justice suggests is possible, but on my own behalf. I do not yet know how well that is going to work. If the effort I am employing at present is successful (and I emphasise that I don’t yet know) it may be a demonstration of how Wild Justice can succeed. I will certainly be taking the results of my efforts as far as possible, depending on how successful I have been in my investigations and actions.
Brilliant. Simply brilliant. So pleased to see this go live. A big undertaking but it has to be done.
Go forth and go strong guys.
James – many thanks. the messages of support are very encouraging.
There’s going to be quite a few people who aren’t at all happy about this ! Wait for the vitriol and accusations of political action incompatible with Chris’ BBC position …. and then pause for a moment and consider just what is political about lobbying for Government, companies and individuals to comply with existing laws ?
