Sounds like the Shamrock shake also partakes in a bit of badger baiting.
Thatās a bit niche mate 
I like wading birds.
Collective noum: a fling of sandpipers.
I never saw the word āpredatedā used in that context before.

So do I, but I also like badgers. Iād wager humans are ever so slightly a greater risk to wading birds than badgers are.
Badgers should be ashamed of themselves. If they had a shred of decency theyād recuse themselves from the food chain.
I had to look into myself. Every day is a school day as they say.
Itās a possibility when some lazy full forward gets his fist to an incoming ball and finds the net. He predated their excellent defence at the death kind of guff.
Prediction: A non-runner.
Shooting a fox is a very primeval affair. Youād feel tremendously aliveā¦no wonder the dogs go buck mad
I am not aware that wading birds of the sandpipers kind have ever been, in recent centuries, hunted by humans. So I am a bit lost on that front. My point was that some animals have a Beatrix Potter halo effect and others creatures do not. Frog numbers have drastically decreased due to intensive farming, which is terrible on the biodiversity front. But frogs possess no Beatrix Potter glow.
But I do know that larks were a street food in Victorian London. And that the father told me last year that his father, born in 1916, remembered catching and eating blackbirds as a young fella.
Protein is protein. Hence escargots.
We used to be a proper country.

Their cause is lost in any event, 21-5 with Belgium abstaining. The Parliament has to vote yet and while there was 55 between them in October itāll be passed when the vote happens next month I think.
Fitzmaurice and his little army can bluster away, ingratiating themselves with Neanderthal muldoons who want us to leave the EU and revert to the horse and raker days of the1950ās.
Rural politicians will say whatever ensures their snouts are in the trough.

I donāt think there is much upside for Ireland in the deal. The fuck are we going to sell the south Americans like.
But thereās loads of upside for the Germans and French selling cars etc

The beef coming into the EU under this agreement will no doubt be consumed on the continent. Paddy is unlikely to be atinā it. Itās all cosmetic from our point but at a time when cattle prices were never as high our producers want something to moan about. A tale as old as time.

Itll be dirt cheap lad,lots of people will eat it tbf.This could be a boon for local butchers hopefully.
If the mince and burgers etc are a few euro cheaper thereāll be a market. Maybe not your prime cuts.
But sure will you know what your eating in a restaurant and if they can save a few bob they will.
