- 15 years on, 230,000 badgers dead, and no meaningful reduction in bTB in cattle. Lets end the cull now, not years down the line. Sign the petition govpetition.uk/700317

- You know what an anti-vaxer is? Somebody who ignores the guidelines of virologists and listens to the loud voice he says what they want to hear.
- As you could have done with Chris’s tweet? Here’s why: it’s not fair to say the logic is invalid. It’s a reasonable, evidence-based inductive argument. It can be challenged, but not dismissed as illogical.
- 15 years on and 230,000 badgers dead and no significant increase in bTB in cattle. That's what he said. So was it a waste of 230,000 badgers or has it saved 9.2 million cattle?
- Did you just read your reply?
- Not really, I'm in bright su light and can't see properly. I'm sure you can work out what my reply was.
- Looking really, really hard for wiggle room to undermine the point?
- No, I have no whether culling badgers is effective or not but the tweet was invalid logic.
- So does that mean the cull was effective? A lot of badgers dead but no increase in bTB in cattle, mission accomplished. A bit like the millenium bug - billions spent but nothing happened so either a huge waste of money or very successful.
- Labour is barking up the wrong tree AGAIN… They can’t out-Reform Reform And arbitrarily cutting immigration will hurt us, while not making one jot of difference to voters Unless they do this…

- Actions count and we'll see what becomes of this news story. If it's nothing then it was a throw away news story.
- Late on Saturday President Putin proposed holding direct talks with Ukraine in Istanbul this Thursday. But Moscow has provided little detail. Today the Kremlin declined to say who might represent Russia at such negotiations.
- Is it a bomb?
- Shameful bullish. What's done incalculable damage is a decade of pernicious falsehoods about immigration, while people who should know better refuse to counter the lies of the increasingly normalised far right. Let's tackle those lies:
- Let's ignore the rubbish fed to the right wing press and see exactly what Labour ARE doing.
- Nobody talks about what is/has been done., they all talk about throw away news stories. What have Labour DONE that you you aren't pleased with and also, what have they done you are pleased with.
- Incredibly depressing day. I've spent my entire life being told by British governments how dreadful immigration is. New Labour did it. The Coalition. The Brexiters. Now Starmer. All of them accusing the ones who came before them of failing to clamp down. The same old vacant mean-spirited bollocks.
- They all talk bollocks otherwise they don't get a headline. What actions have or are being taken, that will show you true intent.
