I haven't seen anyone mention this yet.
Brian May was on Farming Today on Radio 4 this morning talking about the badger cull.
The part that got me was approx 8 mins in when he was asked about violent or direct action and he said "I can't talk about that" or similar words. In my opinion he can talk about about that and refused the opportunity to condemn or disown any violence or illegal activity.
In fact he kept using very emotive words such as violence, civil war etc all the way through.
Also claimed that the badgers would be destroyed and would never recover.
It is approx 12 mins long. Worth a listen if you haven't heard it already http://www.bbc.co.uk...rammes/b01mnr3b
Edit to add: I considered adding this to the telegraph poll thread, but that seems to be more a discussion about whether the cull is right or wrong; where as this post is to highlight the possible repercussions when it does go ahead.
