 WOODCOCK OUR WONDERFUL WOODLAND WINTER BIRD 

LEGAL JUSTICE UPDATE ON THE PETITION TO CHANGE THE MIND OF POLITICIANS AND  DEFRA

Our Woodcock petition: Good news! Yesterday, 15 minutes before midnight (we were watching!) our petition to protect Woodcock from overshooting passed 50,000 signatures. That's half way to getting 100,000 signatures and a Westminster debate on the subject. Thank you for your support.

 

The first 50,000 is the easier 50,000 signatures!  It's hard work to get another 50,000 people involved but you can help, please. If you haven't signed the petition yourself then please have a look and please sign - click here to see the petition.  If everybody who has already signed would find someone else to sign too then we'd be there! Can you please find someone else to sign this petition - maybe someone with whom you live, or work, or meet for a coffee or beer now and again? Maybe if you forwarded this newsletter to some friends, they would sign the petition too?

 

We'll be promoting this petition widely, but we don't know your friends so you're the best person to ask them please.

 

Remember, this petition has already won some concessions, notably a promise to look at shooting seasons, from DEFRA, but there are no specific promises on what might be done at some future date, so it's important to keep up the pressure.  It's a microcosm of #attackonnature - it's #attackonwoodcock.
