After reading news of John Wilson's call for a cull of cormorants in this weeks angling rags I have decided to initiate an online petition to the Prime Minister for the cull of any cormorant caught more than five miles inland of the British coastline.
Introduction to e-petitions | Number10.gov.uk
Here is the substance of the petition to No10 ~
Title: Cull all cormorants found more than five miles inland of the British coastline
Detail: The cormorant has become a major threat to inland fisheries, all but wiping out silver fish stocks in many waters once teeming with these ecologically crucial species. They are currently consuming more of our silver fish stocks than Mother Nature and the Environment Agency combined, can ever hope to replenish.
We petition the Prime Minister to initiate a cull to allow our fisheries respite from this relentless predatory bird.
Duration: 6 months
If you agree with this move then promise to promote the petition and publicise it in any way you can. Remember we have a general election coming up and there are four million anglers out there whose vote may well be wavering and looking for a secure home...
If you have anything to add or subtract to my wording then please feel free to advise, it is very important that it comes across just so.
