Queen legend speaks out about badger cull plans

Ms Allen, saying boo to a goose is actually in contravention of The Protection of Geese Act 1947 which makes it a criminal offence to "startle, surprise, alarm or affright geese," and I would not dream of breaking the law. Mr Hartland, the global population is 7 billion, which somewhat outweighs your paltry (and arbitrary) 16.5 million. However, I don't want to fall out so if I say Dr May IS fit to lace Billy the Badger's oversized football boots, can we all be friends?

I am finding some of these comments disturbing.
A badger is a protected species, protected in law, we are fully backing Brian May at "Team Badger" & "Save Me" on this planned badger cull & anyone wishing to sign Brian's petition please go to the link on our website Badger Trust IOW.
For the comments regarding kicking a badger I quote The Protection of Badgers Act 1992 which "fully protects badgers & their setts & makes it an offence to kill, injure or take a badger, to cruelly ill-treat a badger or to interfere with a badger sett."
You are all grown men, enough.

Mr Hartland, don't rise to these stupid comments Some people clearly use this forum to wind others up then sit back and laugh. Sad people. They wouldn't say "boo to a goose" if face to face.

There are at least 16.5 million people who would not agree with you on that Mr Strauss. In fact I think your closing previous remark is quite offensive.

Jack Bruce is a good shout Mr Hines, but after some consideration I am throwing the full my weight of my support to Mr Miller's Billy the Badger campaign. Dr May is not fit to lace Billy's oversized football boots.

or how about fulham fc mascot Billy the Badger ? he would have a foot in each camp and probably give a more balanced view

Gentlemen, gentlemen, please. By way of middle ground could I suggest Jack Bruce from Cream as a more appropriate spokesman for the badgers? He would equally satisfy the critics, the popularists such as Mr Hartland and the fans of the heavier stuff such as Mr Strauss.

Mr Hartland, that doesn't even make sense. Can't we get back to the badgers?

Clearly Mr Strauss your'e interpretation of of music is why Brian May is a legend and your'e not and never will be. Apart from your name-sake of course!

Mr Hartland, I refer you to my comments below regarding judging appearances, although I find it ironic how comfortable you seem in judging people vis a vis the letters after their name! Regarding Dr May's music, as far as I'm concerned, its right up there with Coldplay, Phil Collins, The Lighthouse Family et al - repellent, middle of the road pap, enjoyed by people devoid of imagination and genuine interest in music.
