Environmental Vandalism

This is Richard Benyon, Environment Minister:

His job is to protect our native environment. His latest plan to achieve this is to allow gamekeepers on the estates of the rich to protect their stocks of (non-native, commercially-bred) pheasant from the (recovering, protected, native) buzzard by allowing them to blast buzzards' nests. This will destroy the eggs (are we sure they won't "accidentally" destroy living young and parent birds in the process?) and reduce the threat to the rich people's shoots. I've already drawn attention to my opinion via Twitter. Do feel free to do the same, no matter where you live. The planet belongs to us all.

His Twitter address is @RichardBenyonMP.
