redrog Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 was member for over 20yrs, stopped 12yrs ago after they chucked us anglers off a lake we stocked and maintained after they bought it for a song, reason given was lead poisoning which we all knew was crap as lead shot had been outdated years before, self absorbed organisation as far as i'm concerned
Froog Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Why anyone donates to these dicks is beyond me

dunc50 Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Come of it Roland,the rspb do a lot of goodtell the songbirds and ground nesting birds ,,, if you can fined them
peter pandy Posted April 2, 2018 Report Posted April 2, 2018 Anyone noticed that when Daily Newspapers print an adverse story regarding raptors !! The RSPB have retractions and misinformation printed en mass for days after. Daily Newspapers rely not only on sales but advertisement and one of the largest purchase of advertisements is the RSPB.. Letters I have sent to the Editor for inclusion in there Letters Page have so far been unsuccessful and appears to be a waste of time and effort.
