Badgers and Figures

You takes your choice. When in a mess, muddy everything in confusion - could be the approach being taken. Then, the argument goes, the general public just throw up their hands and go off to concern itself with some more graspable distraction.

It depends where you look if you' want to know the cost of the badger cull in the south-west. To some it was more than £4,000 per badger killed.
The cost of policing the cull was money well spent -almost half a million pounds - according to Owen.
Now it seems that the number of cattle affected by TB, the original justification of the cull, was significantly overstated.
