Birds of prey poisoned by landed gentry.

[dafodil]

The latest case of poisoning wild life has been to court this week.

Allen Lambert a game keeper on an estate in Norfolk has been found guilty of killing at least eleven buzzards plus other birds inc Owls.

He has been awarded a suspended jail term.

Why you may ask are not the Landowners also in court to answer the wholesale destruction of our wildlife along with the menials who bow down to their every wish and instruction.

Could this any way be because due to the fact that these estate owners are at the very top of our pecking order with most of them having royal connections ,this in tern leading to the bare minimum sentences being imposed on their employees .

I am usually not into class-warfare topics, but this is a point well made. Corporate liability should see the landowners answer for the actions of their game keepers, it is the only way to put a stop to it.

Just a few years ago one of the Royals shot a bird of prey at [sandringham i believe] No one would say which royal pulled the trigger so the matter just faded away.

If one thinks that these people will ever end up in court then forget it !.it is never going to happen.

Its not just the landed gentry that are a problem.

 

 

 

A decorator has been jailed for 23 weeks after amassing one of the largest collections of wild bird eggs ever uncovered.

 

Richard Pearson turned a bedroom in his home into an "Aladdin's cave" devoted to his collection of 7,715 eggs, all of which are protected under law.

 

Many of them were carefully stored in polystyrene boxes and catalogued by the date on which they had been removed from their nests.

 

A pile of diaries also "fastidiously" detailed the make-up of the collection, with Ordinance Survey Map grid references and even notes on freshness.

 

His haul contained eggs from Britain's rarest nesting birds including the golden eagle, little tern, osprey, black-necked grebe, avocet, black-tailed godwit, stone curlew, chough, peregrine falcon and red-throated diver

 

Skegness magistrates heard that Pearson was "simply a working man with an overwhelming fascination for eggs".

What an odd bloke, I wonder if he had 7,715 usernames on an Internet forum?

Every year we see non gentry on the news doing this.

 

Even in this case there is no evidence of the actual land owners knowing about it, it was NOT a 'gentry' who was prosecuted but a game-keeper, so the title is of this thread is pure sensationalist propaganda using the death of endangered birds to their own chavvy ends
