A hung parliament would be the best realistic result for the ordinary bloke in the street in this election IMO, stop the c**ts from being able to do too much because they're too busy arguing with eachother. You're down Bristol way aren't you pal? Reckon that part of the country will be turning Green.

I would genuinely rather see the fecking BNP form the next government
-
Labour are going to win and most likely with a huge majority and honestly that should terrify us all. Starmer will be the most authoritarian PM we've ever had. He'll make Blair look like a choirboy.
-
No such thing as being overprotective in this day and age pal you're doing grand
-
I really need to quit, I had packed the rollies in for ages then for some stupid reason started back up again a couple years back so now between fags and joints I get through nearly 100g of bacci a week

Absolute right pal it isn't pornography it is evidence of horrific crimes. Child Sex Abuse Material or CSAM is the accepted term for it now I believe. As for Germany they've always been a nation of nonces, you should read about the scandal of authorities purposefully placing young boys in the foster system with known paedophiles, started in the 60s and carried on right through to the 90s.

So, what's everyone planning for the upcoming Bank Holiday then?
-
Apparently a lot of councils and landlords aren't allowing them in their properties so loads of folk having to get rid even if they'd be happy to follow the restrictions. No excuse to be dumping dogs though just cowards that can't face up to their responsibilities and do right by the mutts. Had 4 dumped around by me since the ban came in, one was a wee pup during the freezing temps we had a couple weeks back, was found frozen to death.

Gov have released example pics of XL Bullys and is it just me or would these dogs (especially 2 and 3) have been covered under pit type anyway?
-
It's pretty much nailed on that Starmer will win and with a huge majority at the next election and honestly that should terrify everyone. Blair's authoritarianism turned up to 11...
-
Can't see them appealing to the same type of people TBH, they don't have the right look and are a lot harder to live with than a bull breed. Mostly paki drug dealers and the odd silly woman I've seen with them.
-
It's exactly the same as it is with the pit bulls etc, they've just added XL Bullies to the list of banned breeds in Section 1 of the DDA so any dog that is suspected of being of "type" can be taken to be assessed and if it's deemed to be a bully then the owner can apply for exemption and it will be temperament tested etc to decide if they'll be allowed to keep it.
-
I imagine it'll be purely reactive with police responding to folk reporting people for having one like it is with the pit bulls, I can't see them getting lists off vets and going round raiding homes like some expect.
-
I remember a while back there was an attempt to whip up a panic about bull lurchers all the usual "super crossbreed engineered as killing machines" bollocks but it never really caught on because at the end of the day the average bloke in the street has never had anything to do with them. I don't think what's happened with these bullies will happen with another breed TBH, it was a perfect storm of lockdown, fashion and folk seeing a quid to be earnt that lead to them exploding across the country and causing enough problems to get the attention of politicians.
-
They have banned them in all but name, these laws are done on type so now any dog that fits the definition is in the eyes of the law an XL Bully and so a Section 1 banned breed. There's been KC registered Staffords seized and destroyed because they were a "pit type", the only thing that matters in determining if a dog is a banned breed or not is the tape measure.
-
Official definition of an XL Bully dog - GOV.UK WWW.GOV.UK They've released the official definition of an XL Bully and as suspected this will pretty much cover every single large bull or mastiff breed.
-
Aye the idea of a tiny released population of predators breeding and spreading throughout the entire country is just unrealistic isn't it pal
-
We're not talking hypotheticals here pal for over 15 years I had dogs successfully guarding my property. No one poisoned them, no one dazzled them with a torch and no one shot them
-
Again just demonstrating how little you know. Good luck swinging a bar at a pair of 150lb bandogs in the dark as for poisoning it's trivial to train a dog to leave any food not given to them by yourself and any half decent guard will be so worked up by people around the fence that food is the last thing on their mind anyway. I had a yard full of plant in the middle of nowhere for over 15 years and never once had a successful break in pal, you're arguing with real world experience again.
-
Many tried, none succeeded. We've already established you don't know what you're talking about pal
-
The ring doorbell, yappy jack russell and .410 wouldn't be much use guarding a yard full of plant through the night which was my main use for bandogs. Not much use in your home if you're not there either.
-
It really is a tragedy what's been done to these once great breeds that are such a huge part of the history of this country, literally going back thousands of years Britain was known for it's mastiffs and now they've been reduced to a sad caricature, exactly the same with the British bulldog. I know there was a couple of lads years back that were breeding heavily English mastiff blooded bandogs with a view to "recreating" the breed but as with most of those projects nothing really came of it as far as I know.
-
Aye it's still possible to find the less "typey" neapolitans and some of them really do look impressive and generally have decent temperaments but they'll still be plagued with the health problems and resulting short lifespan you see in all the modern mastiff breeds sadly. I'd never own a pure mastiff TBH a proper bandog is everything a mastiff should be.
-
Never had the chance to get hands on with one of those alaunts but always really liked the look of them, as you say basically just nice fit mastiffs. Is anyone still breeding them I wonder? Never really hear about them anymore. That calm stability is exacty what I've always loved about bandogs, real pleasant dogs to live with unlike your real headbanger rottweilers, presa and shepherds etc. All the top bandogs I've known were also perfect house dogs and at the end of the day that's what you need out of a family/home protection dog. I'd never own another breed if I needed a guard but as

You're right to say it smells of sick, butryic acid is what you're smelling a chemical found in both parmesan cheese and sick. Lovely stuff though can't have spag bol without a heavy dusting of fresh parmesan or pecorino.
