CHRIS PACKHAM OUTSIDE PARLIAMENT WITH BOB ELLIOT & RUTH TINGAY RE CANCELLED COURT HEARING

Good afternoon, In today’s newsletter – an update on Badgers; our legal challenge has been put into hibernation... As you know, we were expecting to be in court on Tuesday and Wednesday this week for our long-awaited legal challenge against Natural England’s supplementary Badger cull licences. Well… we’re going to be waiting for a bit longer. On Tuesday (when we were supposed to be at the High Court) it was confirmed that there’d been a court administrative error, meaning our case had not being listed to be heard this week. Although the court attempted to find a last-minute judge to preside, it just wasn’t possible at such short notice. So, we’ve been told the case will now be relisted ‘sometime in the new year’ (how far into it, we don’t yet know). Whilst it is disappointing to have had our plans disrupted at such short notice, we still made sure to make use of our time in London. All three of us have been busy, planning, strategising, and… touring around with something large and furry. We’ll reveal more soon… P.S. No, we haven’t bought a van – photoshop is a powerful thing – but the large and furry thing is not photoshopped. P.P.S. Chris is keen to point out that Badgers do not in fact hibernate, rather they go into winter torpor. Wild Justice (CEO: Bob Elliot. Directors: Chris Packham and Ruth Tingay).
