I understand the reason but think the locking action was wrong.


Nobody who starts a thread has the right to dictate the terms of others posting on it so I had assumed anyone who had an opinion would ignore DF's bleating about "no debate" and go ahead and debate it anyway. Isn't that what usually happens?


In any case problem is easily solved by DF, or anyone else who wants it, starting a thread debating the whole tedious business (I say tedious because much as I suspect I should care I really don't).


Or we could start an EDF martyrs thread as there seems to be a growing band...

Anyway, let's see if it's possible to discuss the potential lifting of the foxhunting ban 'without discussing foxhunting', just for the hell of it.


I was always under the impression that there was a sort of unwritten parliamentary rule that successive opposing governments wouldn't act regressively (with regards to legislation introduced by the previous government) - on the grounds that if they did, it would start to resemble a feuding couple the morning after a flaming row - with one wanting the radio on in the morning and the other not. More so than usual, I mean.


The fact that this is even being considered only underlines what it's all really about: one in the eye for the townies to avenge one in the eye for the toffs, like a victorious football team waving their silly oversized cup around to moos of delight from crowds of cock-a-hoop morons.

What I actually said in the original post...


This is not a thread to discuss Fox Hunting but a chance to express any apposing views and sign the petition.



That is very different from what some people are saying.


The subject has been discussed at length before (like Pizza) and we do not NEED another debate.


It was a Public Information thread pointing to a petition in view of the new government's intention

to repeal the Fox Hunting Ban.

I have heard it suggested that the whole fox hunting thing is a bit of a ruse to distract people from all the other stuff the government are up to.


And judging by social media it's working today extent.

We have just suffered 5 years of Cameron and know where his priorities lay.

The Fox Hunting thing is a little bonus for his mates in the House of Lords..


.. and the Country Alliance..


Whoops.. You tricked me there.. almost got me debating the issue..

Well you did say "I could not of made it easier to understand".


Whereas in fact - by simultaneously declaring it "not a thread to discuss fox hunting" but also with "a chance to express apposing views" - you actually made it completely impossible to understand.


On the pedant front, you'll note I haven't picked up on spelling and grammar - but when the overall meaning lost through poor wording, I think it's a fair cop. Even your clique were confused.

In that case, I take it back then Foxy. It seems you *do* make the rules around here.


Poor judgement, DC. Really poor.

Goodness sake..


R.D. Lush. Loz.


How dull your lives must be if all you have to talk about is Foxy's spelling grammar thread wording.


I will be going on holiday soon and I won't be coming on here.

Will you all still be talking about it when I get back in 8 weeks time.?


It's laughable.


Get out and about. Go for a beer. Chill. Go on holiday.


I my self spend far to much time here. but I do get out walking most days and I'm out and about every night.


Foxy.

Yes Lou. That's about it. I just did not want to discuss it again.


Was expecting people so say 'Thanks for the link - Signed :) '


Strange thing was that no one came back in support of hunting.


Their concern was more of a technical error in the wording, grammar and spelling of my thread.


Quite often people go on about negativity without making any positive comments of there own.


Just lose the will to live sometimes :)
