Foxes and now badgers



The garden is becoming a wildlife habitat with friendly foxes and now badgers visiting. The video above was filmed today in the early hours after I put out food for the fox. The fox did not show but this badger did. My only concern is my hedgehog has completely vanished and I am worried the badger may have eaten it. This would be highly regrettable as the hedgehog has been a garden resident for many months and was a useful deterrent against invading slugs.

There's a mass badger cull underway as they spread TB amongst cattle. The bleeding hearts have delayed this for years - despite the scientific evidence overwhelmingly confirming it - massively exacerbating the number of infected livestock.

WRONG AGAIN! Badgers have more right to live and roam freely in this country than bogus asylum seekers.

KTR said...

So have cattle.

It is highly probable that the badger has eaten the hedgehog. It would have been the smell of the hedgehog that attracted it to the garden.

21 new fraud investigators will be employed in Tameisde by our new Government,Tameside is a hot spot for benefit fraud.
We said we would tackle it and here is the proof.

Bill Harrison's never had a job.
Many more of the Labour councillors, have never done a days work in their lives.

"Badgers have more right to live and roam freely in this country than bogus asylum seekers" - absolute nonsense.

Badgers can be provocative and pervasive pests. I'm delighted to see that Conservative DEFRA minisiter - Caroline Spelman - has introduced badger culling; the only effective way to protect our food chain from bTB

Tom what have you got against foxes and badgers why do you want to kill them.
Why is such a nice lad like you so blood thirsty,I think its them Tory students who have made you like this.

Well done Osborne said...

Lets hope one of these investigators pays a visit to the West household, that will save us all a bit of money and get the lazy sod out working for his living.

The Only Opposition said...

Above it's been tried three times before. they regard these reports as malicious now!
People with a spiteful agenda and all that you know.

West is saint compared to the boroughs bent Labour politicians.

Rotten Borough said...

West costs peanuts, 57 councillors costs a f*****g fortune. Two per ward is more than ample. But they'll feather their own nests and f**k the Borough's residents, services and employees over. Don't forget how many extra residents they've shipped in to Tameside via large scale house building over the last ten years witout the infrastucure to back it. There's trouble ahead and NO-ONE responsible must be let off the hook.

Karl Roberts said...

Tom, badgers must be dealt with but so must the 450,000 asylum seekers and the other 1.5 million illegals, i.e. throw them out. Cameron's hardly mentioned the subject. Hasn't he got the balls?

Social Justice! Not Malicious. said...

Well done Osborne said... why don't you do the reporting this time, but remember to do it out in the open.
Not in the shadows like a cowardly snake.
They told me at the last visit, that, many folk getting reported end up getting more benefit because they are not claiming what they are entitled by law.
They view malicious reporting with the same contempt, as people doing the false claiming of benefit.
The likes of John Charles Taylor working in the shadows, making malicious allegations, sending the police to my house on election day.
I've had it all before.

Social Justice For All. said...

Well done Osborne said... I must thank the person that made the last malicious report against me.
It turned out that I was entitled to claim carer's allowance.
I was advised by the visiter about the forms to fill in.
So a big thank you to that malicious scumbag that reported me that day.
Social justice came from that visit.

Dear Mr Osborne please can you do something about this flood of Scroungers.
Labour let them all in, time to put your plan into action.

OMG the BNP are in big trouble not only at the ballot box,its at the bank also.despite Griffin and his team picking up over £250,000 from the tax payers they are on the brink of bankruptcy.
The man who really owns the BNP the real leader Jim Dawson hes contacted the creditors and offered 20p in the pound to them, generous Jim wants to know where all his money went ,Griffin knows but wont tell.
Jim now knows what hes dealing with so they have sacked him, there will be other mugs out there who the BNP will fleece,I hope our local members are still donating.

Oh my goodness man the life boats, save the women an children.
All this worry over a fringe party.?

John Green said...

Labour 'til I die, you're so thick the Chilean miner's rescuers couldn't drill through you. Who ran up the monumental debt that very nearly ruined the country? The interest payments alone are crippling. No, it wasn't 'the bankers', as 95% of the debt existed before that problem started, it was LABOUR. Show some contrition for what your appalling Party did to this country. And that's before we start talking about the immigration tsunami.
Labour are responsible for what they did in office and Labour are responsible for the suffering being caused by the cuts.

The devastating impact of mass immigration upon the British educational system, which has cost in excess of £16 billion, has been detailed in a new report by the MigrationWatch UK think tank.

"We estimate that in twelve years since immigration began to climb rapidly under the previous government (1998—2009), the additional public spending required for the education of the schoolchildren of migrants was almost £16 billion,” the study said.

“Of this almost £5 billion was in 2009 alone; this amounted to over £13 million a day and was equivalent to over 1p on the basic rate of income tax,” it continued.

“Over the next five years, to 2016, 550,000 more school places will be needed as a direct and indirect result of migration, costing a further £40 billion, and over the next ten years — to 2020 — this rises to one million extra places at a total cost over ten years of almost £100 billion.

“Looking further ahead, the official population projections, suggest that an additional 2.3 million births between 2008 and 2033 will result from migration,” MigrationWatch said in an official press release.

“Adding direct migration to this and assuming that all of the additional children are educated in state schools, the total costs of their schooling would be almost £195 billion over a 25 year period.

“This calculation is made using very conservative assumptions about school leaving age etc., it does not make any allowance for additional education requirements of migrants (e.g.: help with languages etc.) so the eventual cost could be much higher than this.

“By 2033 children born earlier in the period will have left school so the number of additional school places required will be about 1.3 million.

“This would be equivalent to almost 3,800 new schools staffed by around 75,000 additional teachers,” the reports executive summary concluded.

How much more evidence does the public need to understand that the very fabric of our society is being utterly destroyed by the immigration tsunami?

UAF, you're so thick I can't believe it. This has only just begun empty-head. No-one outside of your crank circle and a few brain dead Z-listers have ever heard about, or care about you or your democracy and nation state hating bunch of misfits.

Stacey K said...

Hi TC,

I found a hedgehog in my garage so I've made it a hedgehog box in the garden. This stops foxes etc killing them and gives them somewhere warm for them to rest during winter. You can buy them on various websites but you can make them very easily. It would be very difficult for anything to eat a hedgehog because of the spikes so I wouldn't worry too much about that, they often roam from garden to garden but the smell of catfood should tempt it back to yours in no time.

Karl Roberts said...

Stacey K, you and TC should get wed. What a pair of bunny huggers.

Tameside Citizen said...

Thanks for the info SK. I think the hedgehog has retreated into the compost heap for winter, but it is possible the badger took it. Hedgehogs do not have too many natural predators due to their prickly nature but badgers are capable of and have been known to eat hedgehogs. Apparently they overcome the issue of the hedgehogs prickles by slashing them open with their long claws.
