I don't think you two have a clue , I said before this is an argument about class war which you have both proven in your above statements to prove being the smug self satisfying idiots who think you hold some moral high ground on some thing you have no understanding of , any way my partner hunts , she's from a sink hole estate in Newcastle , she hunts because she is an amazing horse woman and horses are her passion and life who other wise would not get to ride on the courses or land that you pay £40 quid a day for on a hunt meet , I know in the 6 years she has been drag hunting which is usually every Saturday she's not seen a fox killed, I'm not saying it does not happen but they don't go digging any fox that has gone to ground out so if the hounds do pick up a fox and change trails they are never likely if at all to catch it unless it's well not fit enough... it's entirely about horsemanship and riding skills to cover cross country that people go for.. obviously trigger **************** wit and mr smug babe mbe can't get there heads around this..

And covid restrictions are back.

 

Apparently we now have to isolate until we've got a negative day 2 PCR test after international travel. And wear f*cking masks again in shops.

 

Bollocks to that. I'm just not doing this anymore.

Ill retract that - I may think it but I probably shouldn’t say it. 
 

Do try and put a coherent justification for your lasses activities though - if you can.

There is simply no justification. There’s loads of Horsey types round us. How they get by without poncing around “pretending” to hunt Foxes I’ll never know. 
 

Loads of game estates around us too. I have no issues with that. A close friend has a Deer and Salmon Estate with the usual game bird shoots. Fine with that too since they’re not getting a semi off of watching dogs slowly rip apart animals.

I'm in agreement with you.

 

It was a major culture shock when I first moved down here seeing mounted hunts promenading down the lanes like they owned the place. It's hard to describe how much I detest all aspects of hunting with hounds whilst mounted on horses. It's got nothing to do with effective control of a species deemed to be a pest and everything to do with an anachronistic exercise in reasserting and reinforcing class distinctions whilst subjugating as many people as is humanly possible. Absolutely disgusting and no place for it in the 21st century.

How is it subjugating as many people as humanly possible?

“Reinforcing class distinctions whilst subjugating as many people as possible”…..in Devon?? Are you have a laugh J, they are all farmers hunts that attract the full spectrum of rural society/community!
You don’t half spout some drivel at times.
Anyway are you still here Mr Westcountry Hater?[emoji23]

Of course there is a full spectrum of people involved. All in their class defined, predetermined roles. How many of the riders are working class?

 

Yes, stuck here for the time being. Very much looking forward to the moment that I'm not.

By paying working class lackeys £40 a day. By trampling across land that they don't own or have a right to access. By endangering the public by chasing (for instance) deer across public roads. 

 

Last year I almost hit a stag on the A396 that was being pursued by some twat in fancy dress on a horse.
