Please kill every magpie you can. More than grey squirrels, feral cats, absurdly protected sparrowhawks and loss of environment, the handsome, raucous magpie destroys eggs and nestlings of songbirds. A pair can kill hundreds in a season.
Magpies have proliferated because of man's rubbish and as a sideline are decimating our songbirds.
In our district they have ravaged: thrushes, tits, finches, robins and many more. These have disappeared over 30 years. The main variable? - The magpie.

So where is the political correctness in all of this? Well. The answer is simple. It is the hand-wringers who insist that 'culls are cruel' who are causing vast amounts of damage to our wildlife.
