Badger Cull

Proceeding contribution from Mark Tami (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 5 June 2013. It occurred during Opposition day on Badger Cull.

The Secretary of State has talked about how he has been around the world to look at all these approaches, but the science we are looking at is the science in the UK. Clearly, as even those in favour of a cull would agree, the actual progress it will make is very small, even if progress is taken as a fact. We need a combination of measures. As some Government Members have said, culling will make only a small difference and it will not eradicate the disease.
