Thank you for signing.

hahahaha DEFRA...think??
The government doesn't think, it reacts. I've been bugging them with emails for the last 2 years. They are shooting themselves in the foot as several people have told me they would keep their mouths shut if they suspected H5N1, in order to save their birds. One chap told me he had his loft rigged out with dog cages and would put all his chickens up there to save them from being culled. On the one hand the government allows zoos and large valuable parrot collections to vaccinate, and on the other it says vaccinated birds 'may' become carriers without symptoms (they have never done any research to prove this). They move in and kill thousands of birds , but when the swans in Dorset got it, they killed not one. They say it's from the wild birds, but the 2 big outbreaks in Norfolk in recent years have been in closed factory farms. The government tell massive lies to suit what they think people will believe. Allowing people to vaccinate their flocks will make a difference. It's the only thing which brought the disease under control in places like Hong Kong and other Asian countries.
I'm hoping that if enough people sign the petition, the government will allow people to vaccinate at their own cost of course. How can they refuse? It's not going to cost the government a penny.
