Badger Cull

Proceeding contribution from Caroline Lucas (Green Party) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 March 2014. It occurred during Backbench debate on Badger Cull.

The words that the hon. Gentleman has just spoken are scientifically so wrong. All the evidence that we have seen demonstrates precisely that the strategy taken should depend on what species we are talking about and on the ecology. Just because culling makes sense in one context with one species at one time, it makes no sense to say that that means it is okay to do it in a different environment. The circumstances matter, not the general principle.
