Badger Cull

Proceeding contribution from Mark Pritchard (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 25 October 2012. It occurred during Backbench debate and e-petition debate on Badger Cull.

May I sound a note of caution? While my hon. Friend may have a difference with the RSPCA, it is the leading animal welfare charity in this nation, established by a former colleague in this House—William Wilberforce. What we can agree on, I hope, is that we all want to see healthy cattle and healthy badgers. Does my hon. Friend agree that the Government need to do more—far more than the previous Government, I hasten to add—on getting a vaccine as soon as possible? That would satisfy everybody—farmers and those who care for animal welfare.
