Hunters under fire
From: W B Thompson, Park House Green, Harrogate. MaY I say that hunts regularly break their own rules, such as digging into badger sets, creating artificial earths, "bagging" foxes to hunt later, leaving carcasses lying about the countryside to encourage foxes, trespassing on land where they know perfectly well they are not welcome. All these are documented and available to those who care to look.
Asfor the allegation that the majority of the public are pro hunting; I hopeno-one is relying on Countryside Alliance figures.
May I point out that the calculation method used by the Countryside Alliance has been heavilycriticised by marketing experts as misleading, and their advice is thatits results should bediscounted as a measure of public opinion.
