Poll: 1080 poison - what do you think?
1080 poison was in the news this week with a two-day trial at Thames District Court for 1080 protester Graeme Sturgeon, who was charged with assaulting a security guard as DOC staff were loading 1080 poison on to trucks for transport to a drop zone in the Coromandel Ranges on October 17. Judge Greg Hollister-Jones threw out the charge on February 20, saying Sturgeon acted in self defence. What's your stance on 1080 - harmful to the environment or a necessary evil to control possums?
