    That is a very strange view to have, there is a big difference in killing for food, which is after all a natural action and killing for "sport" or "fun". Yes I can agree with say a vegetarian who argues that any killing is cruel or unnecessary. Thast there view and belief, though it goes against what actually happens in the natural world where nature is red in tooth and claw.

    There is much that can be critcised on the differing ways food is produced, for myself I will only buy and eat meat where I know where its been raised and under what conditions. Its expensive, but then I eat good quality meat less often. Thats difficult when dining out, but then I do know where food is sourced for many places.

    I don't see why you think challenging your proposition that there is no difference between killing for food or killing for sport is demeaning. Unless you have the view that every time somebody offers and alternative view to yours you feel upset. But then that woudl only be the case if your not comfortable with your view being the dominant one.

So its a bit rich the Tories and a Tory/right wing paper making it all about Starmer!

    Plus these very same people and the same media are the first to complain when someone tweets or says something awful, as per Connolly, about "free speech" and being cancelled!
    Stunning hypocrisy from the Tories and Reform members who were Tories. Calling for him to be deported but they started the dialogue to bring him to the UK

    Now that’s an interesting comment, especially coming from the only poster to have resorted to calling one poster with opposing views a clown and two others ****s - that suggests a degree of upset on your part, whether fuelled by an inability to put a decent argument together or as GP suggested something more liquid we’ll have to guess

    Take off your partisan hat for a moment - would you be happy for this fellah to move in next door regardless of who endorsed it? Surely that?s the issue, it would be with me

    What do you mean partisan? Ive been critical of starmer while pointing out the hypocrisy of other party members.

    Surely you have to admit it's hypocritical of the likes of Farage to criticise starmer but put Lucy Connolly on a pedestal.

    Don't get the partisan comment, I haven't defended anyone's comments on him.

    Back on the bloodsports issue, it would appear that a number of local communities took a step further than us keyboard warriors and attended their local ?drag acts? in support in big numbers over recent days. Just an observation

    Sorry didn?t put it very well. Give an answer without referring to a political party, political leaning or politician.

    Don’t really get your point. It’s Trail hunting, because it is suspected to be an alleged smokescreen for more conventional and already illegal hunting - not Drag hunting - that the Government are targeting isn’t it?

    Also don’t understand the ‘keyboard warrior’ reference. This is an an online forum for argument/debate/discussion. No one is making threats or playing the big ‘I am’ that I’m aware of. People are just putting forward and exchanging their views and opinions.

    That’s also just an observation btw.

    Not sure thats the issue. It was started by tricky regarding Starmers endorsement of him. But if I knew any of my neighbours had posted extreme views it would be disturbing yed

    Well a good Drag act can be fun.
