@JChimirie66677 @LsMc459856 In the main I don’t object to Trail Hunting…but the excuses when caught abusing it….is always by ‘accident’ that the Hounds come across a Fox and tear it to shreds.

I totally get where you're coming from. I don't support fox hunting either. That was settled years ago and rightly so. But trail hunting is not the same thing. It involves hounds following a laid scent, not pursuing live quarry. It exists as a legal, organised activity with its own rules, its own structure, and a whole rural economy around it. Lumping it together with illegal fox hunting blurs a line that actually matters. Where people abuse it as cover for breaking the law, deal with them properly. Enforce the law. Prosecute. Ban individuals if necessary. But that is targeted enforcement against wrongdoing, not a blanket ban on a lawful activity. There is also a wider point people often miss. These practices sit inside a long chain of rural life. Jobs, skills, land management, communities that have done things a certain way for generations. You don't have to like it to recognise that wiping it out carries real consequences for people and places that rarely get a say. So yes, go after illegal hunting. Absolutely. But don't pretend that ending trail hunting fixes that problem. It just sweeps everything away, including what is lawful, structured and part of the countryside as it actually exists.

Labour's Rural Offensive Leaves 10,000 Hounds Facing Death Across England and Wales, hundreds of packs of hounds are maintained in organised kennels. Each is run with care, routine and purpose. Huntsmen and kennel staff manage them day to day. Breeding is strictly controlled. They are trained with patience and discipline. These are working hounds, kept in numbers because the role demands it. That role is now coming to an end. Labour's proposed ban on trail hunting is being presented as a matter of animal welfare. The language is familiar. Risk to wildlife. Concern about enforcement. The claim that trail hunting is sometimes used as cover for illegal hunting. Where that happens, the law should be enforced. Instead, a blanket ban is being imposed. The conclusion has already been reached. The activity must go. What follows has been left unanswered. Remove the activity and the structure collapses. Packs exist because hunts exist. Without that framework, thousands of hounds remain with no place and no income stream to support them. These are not pets bred one at a time for private homes. They are pack animals, handled as a group. Most will have to be put down. Around 10,000 hounds are currently maintained, according to industry estimates reported in Horse & Hound. No plan has been set out for rehoming at that scale. No provision from ministers. The numbers do not bend to good intentions. A policy carried out in the name of animal welfare leads directly to the destruction of healthy dogs on a vast scale. Each hunt supports a small number of staff. Two or three in many cases. Modest wages, often with housing tied to the role. Remove the hunt and both income and accommodation vanish together, leaving little to fall back on. These are not workers who can easily relocate or retrain. They are rooted in place, in a trade that does not translate neatly into anything else. Around £100 million moves through this part of the rural economy each year. Farriers, feed merchants, vets, local pubs. Small systems that hold villages together. Pull one strand and the strain spreads outward. This is not new ground. The last Labour government spent hundreds of hours driving the Hunting Act through Parliament. That law ended fox hunting and left trail hunting in its place. Two decades on, the same argument returns, the same target, the same instinct to regulate rural life from a distance without understanding how it functions. It also sits in a wider pattern. Shooting faces licensing. Gamebird releases face restriction. Land use is being redirected by central plan. Each policy arrives separately. Together they narrow the space in which rural work can exist. The direction is clear even when each step is presented as limited. The consultation reflects that approach. It asks how to carry out the ban, not whether it should happen. The decision has already been taken. The process follows behind it. Defra speaks of risks to wildlife and problems with enforcement. When asked for evidence, nothing substantial has been put forward. All of this is being prioritised while larger pressures on rural Britain go unresolved, from costs and energy to farm viability and the survival of small businesses, and yet this is where time and political capital are being spent. Ten thousand hounds with nowhere to go. Workers with no obvious path back into work. Rural economies losing another piece of what sustains them. All carried out under the banner of animal welfare. That is the reality behind the policy. "These are not pets bred one at a time for private homes. They are pack animals, handled as a group. Most will have to be put down."

@JChimirie66677 The problem I have with the (I admit I am against Fox Hunting) the thing about …Trail Hunting is….they keep saying it is supported by rural communities and adds to them economically, not here! That just isn’t true,I‘ve lived in the countryside for over 40 years.

@JChimirie66677 If they cared so much about Animal Welfare? I'd start with the barbaric Halal practice first and foremost. That would be a clear marker they were serious about any welfare concerning Animals? This has nothing to do with welfare and everything to do with class warfare.

@HJB_News__ It’s been long enough wait already….without any real reason!

Pakistani Manchester attackers on female police officer case has now been delayed for a week because of mysterious 'administrative matters' that cannot be reported. As a result of this delay, the outcome of the 5 week trial won't be known until after the local elections. Something isn’t right here?

For all you MPs from the Labour Nonce Party: you have no moral high ground whatsoever — none, zilch, fucking nowt. We don’t give a fuck about Tice. You’re the party that refused to hold a proper inquiry into the greatest scandal in our nation’s history. Pakistani Rape Gangs. You’re nonce appeasers, every last one of you. Your leader is up to his neck in lies and corruption — a quisling through and through. And you’re all complicit: nonces and nonce appeasers. Do yourselves a favour: put down your phones, get off social media, and go to church. But for God’s sake, leave the little choir boys alone. PS - Anything on Nick Brown?

🌐 🇦🇹 Autriche : Une écolière de 12 ans a été violée par 19 migrants dans un parking près de la gare centrale de Vienne, en Autriche. Le premier accusé, un Syrien de 17 ans, aurait été acquitté malgré des aveux présumés. Le tribunal aurait conclu qu’il n’existait pas de preuve suffisante démontrant que la jeune fille n’était pas consentante. Il a laissé à la jeune fille 100 € en guise de « geste de bonne volonté » avant de quitter la salle d'audience.

In the latest MRP poll, 12 Cabinet ministers would lose their constituency seats to Reform UK. Including Rachel Reeves, Bridget Phillipson, Yvette Cooper, Ed Miliband, Jonathan Reynolds & Angela Rayner.

Keir Starmer dishonestly claimed the cost of Labour’s Chagos Islands surrender deal was ‘just £3.4bn’ to take our territory - but figures now show the true bill was more than £50bn - 15 times higher than the false figure he deployed (via @DailyMail) dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

@isaacrrr7 Yes

Los musulmanes gritan «islamofobia» por las siguientes declaraciones virales de Marine Le Pen detallando su plan para reprimir el islam cerrando mezquitas y deportando a imanes que predican la yihad (guerra santa). ¿Apoyas sus políticas contra el islam? ¿Sí o no?

She was Eva Helgetun, a 14-year-old Norwegian girl. It was night. Eva was at her school party, looking for her friends. She was approached by a young African immigrant who offered to help her find them. Using deception, he led her to a secluded area. Two other African immigrants then joined him. The three of them overpowered her. She screamed and fought desperately, but despite her resistance, two of them raped her. Before the third could take his turn, she managed to break free and escape. She ran into two Norwegian passersby, her fellow countrymen, who immediately understood what had happened and helped her. She was taken to the hospital and that same night reported the rape at a violence support center. As her lawyer later explained, Eva’s only desire was to stop these monsters from raping other girls. She described the cowards as “African boys aged between 16 and 20.” In the days that followed, Eva spiraled into depression, insomnia, missed school, crying fits, and overwhelming guilt. Despite the huge support from her community and friends, she could no longer carry the weight of what they had done to her. Eva took her own life.

Please SHARE/ RETWEET This is the BIGGEST scandal since the Grooming Gangs Massive VOTER FRAUD in many Pakistani communities threatens our democracy yet the media & Government stay silent - AGAIN May elections will be affected FULL-LENGTH 👉youtube.com/watch?v=n4M8ux… CLIP👇 As my guest @recusant_raja says: "We are talking about epic voter fraud on a scale Western democracies are completely unprepared for" This strikes at the heart of our democracy. Britain has imported the corrupt politics of Pakistan. Left unchecked it will soon create an existential crisis for the nation. We must draw national attention to this subject. In this interview with me, @recusant_raja reveals how Pakistani clans harvest thousands of blank postal votes from local Muslims. Intimidation and threats of dire consequences await those who don't hand their postal votes over And he explains how politicians have been complicit in covering this up Raja Miah also reveals there is a civil war within the Pakistani & Bangladeshi community. Older and more moderate Muslims largely remain embedded with Labour whilst younger, more radical and Islamist Muslims have infiltrated the Green Party, which they intend to dominate and use for their own ends. This is an interview not to be missed. Link to the full interview is above and also in the second tweet below. 1/2

@ZacGoldsmith Absolutely! It’s truly disgraceful!

On every international issue this UK govt has not only made the wrong call, it has made a catastrophically wrong call: -recognising a Palestinian state as a reward for committing the biggest slaughter of Jews since the Holocaust -not recognising peaceful and friendly (formerly British) Somaliland in favour of terrorist Al Shabaab- infested Somalia. -withdrawing almost all support for efforts to protect and restore nature internationally (in favour of a one dimensional carbon approach) -actively voting to put Iran on a UN committee responsible for tackling Gender Equality & Empowerment of Women, Disarmament, Human Rights, Terrorism Prevention Etc It is actually mind-boggling

@SBarrettBar What a smashing little boy, he's so delighted! And fair play to the clever lad, being able to stand up from the floor with just the strength of his legs...I have to make an unbecoming noise & use the arms of the chair to get up from sitting, these days.😳

@SBarrettBar Wonderful! 😁

God bless him 😊❤️
