As usual
"the point" <-----------------------------------------------> flyboy

Let me try and explain it to you flyboy.
If I said "you can divide people into those with two blue eyes and those who don't have two blue eyes" would you need evidence that people with two blue eyes are not also people who don't have two blue eyes?

Here we go again, trying wriggle out of what you clearly said. Let me rmind you, you wrote:

Now, that means the those who only want to stop hunting because they don't like rich Tories. How on Earth can it mean anything else?

I then asked:

Which most reasonable people would consider an acceptable question.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
 

It's a logic argument flyboy, as with the eyes example I was hoping you'd be able to understand.
Apparently I was wrong.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
 

More excuses?

We have you for that flyboy :rolleyes:

We've had several comments on here from people saying just that over the years.
A good friend of mine is involved in the Labour party down south (yes, he wasn't happy that Labour got a thrashing in the polls either, but he does at least admit they have screwed up the economy, go on, try and accept it), and campaigned to have fox hunting banned because it would upset the tories in the countryside. His lot even went as far as dressing up as foxes and falling down at the feet of the Tory candidate (who is anti-hunting) while she tried to campaign for election.
You have the parliment act being used and more time spent trying to get it through parliment than what was spent discussing the Iraq invasion, yet other blood sports (those not predominantly practiced by toffs) never got even a suggestion of a ban.

Satisfied? No of course not, you wouldn't have been no matter what I'd put.

Well I wasn't thinking along these lines.It hasn't really worked that well with other pests and vermin...:(

I seem to recall in the 80's the french dropped chicken heads laced with rabies vaccine across the countryside.
Don't know how effective it was.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
 

I think that's a very bad idea..:(

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
 

At least the foxes keep the rabbit numbers down. ;)

A mere flesh wound - nothing a drop of Savlon and a sticky plaster wouldn't sort.

Serves him right.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting

i've got no sympathy for him
