    I like the last paragraph in the mail article NE should simply remove all protection so anyone can shoot pigeons for food

    My post #3 was ignored but it's pertinent

    "So, in ten years time, the only birds we will see are the natural predatory species that revocation of the GL allowed to flourish uncontrolled.

    Hope you like your corvids."

    License applications now open

    You need to download the file from the link, don't click on it or it will open in a new window and not work

    On a mac Ctrl Click and select download file
    On a pc right click and select download file

    It seems fairly plain speaking and straight forward

    So much simpler than before what joy, wonder how all the old Farmers who don't use a PC will manage never mind the rest of us. What a joke this country has become.

    Just take away protection from species that are Vermin and over populated FFS!! Same with Badgers instead of paying 'Profesionals' a Thousand pounds of Taxpayers money per animal.

    Yes it is, Packham and Avery want to stop all shooting and to think otherwise is foolish.

    They’ll probably rely on those that can complain like pro snowflakes on Internet forums to keep them abreast of technology that has been around for nearly 3 decades, well over a 1/3rd of the average male lifespan. But break it in gently and don’t show them your telephone that doesn’t need a wire attached, they won’t be able take the shock after the long walk back from the village to get that telegram.

    Well not simple for me tried few times will not work so much for online click the box and done in a few minutes as they said I have emailed a compliant and emailed them asking them to accept this E-mail as a application for a licence what a complete waste of TIME and effort I can't print forms either as I have no printer and I'm now sick of trying for a online solution I wonder how MANY other's are having the same issue so that's it enough jumping threw there hoops

    See the post below yours or go on PW and see how many can't apply on line on there that are trying! You totally miss the point nobody should be having to apply on line individually for a licence every time they want to shoot Vermin, it is a total farce and blatantly unmanageable for NE! If they had until the end of the year to sort out the General Licence why on earth did they choose to revoke it at this time of year with 2 days notice causing this mayhem. Someone needs the sack, preferably Gove.
