    Interesting to read about such a well-attended debate. I concluded that the proposal to ban Grouse shooting was coherently overturned.

    Jeremy – I assume this is you in the link below:

    Jeremy R Drax, London – 2013

    “Having shot with Adrian and his team over a number of years I have found the balance of knowledge ,professionalism and hospitality achieved excellent. I cannot remember a day that I have not thoroughly enjoyed when under his direction. Personally I find the most important part of enjoying a shoot is feeling you are shooting amongst friends. This coupled with the determination to provide great sport in a beautiful part of the country, regardless of the weather, make his days very special.”

    So you condone the shooting of Hen Harrier?

    Mr Drax apparently shoots with the above mentioned Adrian Thornton-Berry (Dalesports) whose wife Caroline is Chair of the Yorkshire Dales National Park Planning Committee. Rowan, a tagged HH was shot in the YDNP in October – one of a long line of casualties in this National Park raptor crime hotspot. Just a bit more background information!
