So is that 4 horses dead after Grand National - Discorama, Solwara One, Elle Est Belle & Eclair Surf. 

 

Odd, not mentioned at all on MSM. 
 

What a truly “animal loving” nature the UK is huh....

I’d say it is an animal loving country, the fact that the media choose not to report on this is more likely to be indicative of the money involved in horse racing and the associated gambling not to mention the people involved in it.

The death of one horse was mentioned quietly on TV news, before moving swiftly along to the important stuff like Fascinators and Kate Middleton knows a jockey.

Scotland to become first part of UK to allow 16 and 17-year-olds to enter Parliament

The plan would allow under-18s to become MSPs at the next Scottish Parliament election in 2026

Well I hope they have more sense than I did at 16-17 🤷‍♂️. Or maybe that’s just what the SNP are banking on, be careful what you wish for may turn out to be a prophetic saying what with the power of social media etc. 

 

Bonkers.

Fake news! Do your homework before you post such nonsense, two horses died during the GN. The other two died at the same meeting, not in the National! Do you want us to ban National Hunt meetings? I was on Eclair Surf by the way.

It's been all over MSM, shocking that you and I know all about it really.

 

Get it right or wind it in.

UK loses out as work on trio of giant floating wind projects falls to Lamprell

Work on a trio of giant floating wind projects off UK waters is to go to Lamprell, the fabricator based in the United Arab...

Rather than governments either side of the border worrying about trans conversion or 16 yr olds voting maybe we should be looking at the reason this is happening time after time. Absolutely disgraceful.

Private eye metions the non dom status a yr ago but its never was big news then maybe it was only a rumour not confirmed?

 

Corbyn said he would of abolished non dom it but current "new" Labour are typically keeping quiet about what there policy would be on it

 

In reality i reckon they would do nothing different to reform it and other such tax loophole issues .

Good article by Peston about non doms with some history background etc:

Would Britain be richer or poorer if Ed Miliband abolishes the tax privileges of long-term non-doms?

Owners and trainers put many thousands of pounds into horses and dogs, do you honestly think they want to see them die?

 

Or should horse and dog racing just be banned?

Have a drop more water with it you feisty fecker. 
 

Did 4 horses die for senseless pleasure?

 

A simple Y/N will do.
