It isn't so much that the Tories are getting more popular as that Labour is getting less so. Which illustrates a more general predicament for the Tories and any other party that might have aspirations to government.

Time to exterminate Grey Squirrels

category national | environment | opinion/analysis author Friday January 20, 2012 11:36author by Red Squirrel Report this post to the editors

Dwindling Red Squirrel population

Surely now the time is right for the removal of the grey squirrel from this island, our native red squirrel numbers are dropping at an alarming rate due to pressure from the more aggressive Grey Squirrel.

The bounty of 3euros per Grey Squirrel killed offered recently may keep their numbers in check but in effect should we be looking at a much wider approach with a national culling of this species in Ireland to allow the natural red to regain its numbers and become dominat species on these lands again.

Now to add to the red populations missery is the threat of disease from the invaders.
