'Without hunting the countryside would be a much, much poorer place.' GB News National Reporter Will Godley is in Oxfordshire where trail hunting groups are hosting racing events throughout the day. He is joined by Tim Bonner from the Countryside Alliance.

'Hunting has been a massive part of my life since childhood. This sport is incredibly important to a huge amount of people' Oliver Dale says rural communities feel 'targeted' by Labour and 'will fight' to keep their ability to hunt.

🚨Chris Packham and Wild Justice’s petition to ban grouse shooting has just been annihilated in a debate in Parliament. The Countryside Alliance has successfully spearheaded the opposition against this harmful petition…(1/3)

Ratters provide a free, humane and effective service. Given the shocking rise in rodents as a result of the Birmingham bins crisis, the services of ratters would seem an ideal solution to a problem that is only going to get worse. eu1.hubs.ly/H0jdYWY0

Looking forward to the 20th Festival of Hounds at Peterborough on 16 July sponsored by the mighty @CAupdates countryside-alliance.org/resources/news…

Thank you for all the lovely messages, more importantly thanks to all the vets at @AintreeRaces . Broadway Boy is getting loaded onto the horse ambulance and coming home. Such a special horse to all of us at Grangehill farm. Big thanks to Laura who has stayed with him all night .

The Story so Far- @Michael_OSull - Last seasons champion conditional reflects on the road to grade 1 success and building on it for the future.

“I don't believe this government hates the countryside but I wish it would stop appearing to” Matthew Parris brilliant as ever on the High Peak Harriers and Labour’s plans to ban trail hunting in @thetimes

Always fun doing live TV with the hounds…😆🐶

'A lot of this could have been avoided if the treasury had just spoken to Defra and farmers in the first place.' External Affairs Director for Countryside Alliance, Mo Fisher, brands the Treasury's statistics on inheritance tax changes as 'very dubious'.

Thank you to the F&D for the invitation to their National trail hunting day, hounds went beautifully on trails laid across varied country, trail layers gave both hounds & followers a great run with incredible views.

Meltdown at @LeagueACS over Labour manifesto commitment. The head of the League Against Cruel Sports has quit over Labour’s “betrayal” on their pledge to ban hunting. aol.co.uk/news/league-ag…

🐶 We were joined by hounds in Parliament Square this morning, ahead of Labour’s manifesto launch. Does Keir Starmer really want to launch a toxic culture war against the countryside by putting hunting back on the agenda?

Labour manifesto launch at 11. Are they really going to put hunting back on the Westminster agenda?

Great stuff from the Campaign for Hunting @FollowHounds on the Grand National and trail hunting quoting @kevinblake2011 “The future really is down to us and the time to take action is now”

It rained and it rained and it rained. Piglet told himself that never in all his life, and he was goodness knows HOW old - three, was it, or four? - never had he seen so much rain. Days and days and days. Every day the water got a little higher. ~A.A.Milne #rain #flooding

"The idea that trying to rewrite history will somehow improve the image of jump racing is more than a little bit insulting to the intelligence of the general public," says our Chief Executive, @CA_TimB, in today's @RacingPost 👇

"It is utterly bizarre that the Labour Party is still making hunting its priority" says Director of the Campaign for Hunting, Polly Portwin, to @fieldsportstv. If you haven't already, please sign and share our e-lobby here 👉 eu1.hubs.ly/H07Vs2Y0
