We are delighted to hear that MPs voted unanimously to take no further action after the debate in parliament following a petition to ban driven grouse shooting reached 123,077 signatures. Common sense has prevailed yet despite this small victory, Mark Avery warns that our sport is a ‘doomed hobby’, and says that this ‘is not the end, but it’s a long way from the beginning.’
Mark goes on to say that such Petitions are a ‘much better way of getting the attention of decision-makers than riots, but especially when MPs listen. We need to keep raising the issues. We will be heard.’
