Just how much the rather pointless research of compiling the Daisie
database costs the European taxpayer, when most of the 10, 677 “alien
species recorded are harmless"?.

 Surely, with so many essential services in terminal decline, the
money could be better spent than chasing uncatchable aliens.

Surely, with so many species in terminal decline because of invasive 
aliens, the money is being extremely well spent.

There's not such thing as aliens on our planet - as far as I am aware.
The is just a term been recently stolen by the fake conservationists.

Man has the most damaging impact on our natural environment.

I think all are harmless.   They just do their own thing.

There's a lot more to worry about and a lot better use for the money
than lining the pockets of these researchers.

So, Angus, how much of the money being spent on (successfully) ridding 
Northumberland of grey squirrels is "lining the pockets of researchers"?

Any amount of money is too much for this.
