A Great British Tradition - Fox Hunting

I thought I might start my blog today by suggesting that if you consider the current law banning fox-hunting with hounds is a legitimate law resulting from concerns over animal welfare then think also about the situation existing in this country with regard to the increasing occurrence of halal slaughter, the ritual killing of animals as a result of allowing animals to bleed to death after slitting their throats. Fox-hunting by comparison is harmless in that, yes, the odd fox might be killed, but fox-hunting does not pose a threat to the society in which we live, in fact, unless you have made the effort to do so, you have probably never even seen a hunt taking place, whereas the increase in halal slaughter is indicative of the creeping islamification of the British nation. The banning of fox-hunting has nothing to do with animal welfare, it has everything to do with class war and the attempts of a corrupt Labour government to destroy those who live and work in the countryside, why else would they order their police force to take so much of an interest (here) in what goes on when they would be better utilised fighting real crime.

My earlier blog on Sunday 4th November marked the start of the hunting season and today I returned to South Herefordshire to support the hunt on their Boxing Day meet. It is always quite bleak there at this time of year and was a little on the cold side, to say the least, so this made it all the more pleasing to see so many people out in support. The number this year was up in comparison to last year and must have been several hundred strong. As said in my earlier blog it is certainly an exhilarating experience to see the hounds

together with so many horses and riders dressed in traditional hunting attire charging across open fields following the trail, carefully laid to avoid a real fox being hunted, and the sound of the hunting horn in the distance.

I know some readers will be well on their high horses by now, so here’s another picture of the hounds as a reminder that if fox-hunting disappears altogether then these animals will be destroyed as they are specifically bred to carry out this work.

Also remember that there are hundreds of staff associated with hunts who will lose their jobs. Additionally there are the farmers who rely on the hunts to pick up fallen stock and they will have to look elsewhere for volunteers, so who would do it? If you are angered by what I have written then direct your anger by protesting about real animal welfare issues like the halal slaughter as mentioned above and also remember that this is part of the Labour governments big plan to destroy all that is traditional in this once great land of ours, nothing more, nothing less!
