Grouse Shooting

Proceeding contribution from Kerry McCarthy (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 21 June 2021. It occurred during e-petition debate on Grouse Shooting.

I might go on to say why it is problematic in the way they are managed. One of the problems that the campaigners supporting the petition have had is that they have got to the point where they are saying that the only answer is a ban on driven grouse shooting, because the people who manage the moorlands have not been prepared to meet them halfway and to address some of the issues—for example, the hen harrier persecution, the burning of the heather and so on.
