wink hound 0 Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Thank you for your recent email. I would like to take this opportunity to explain why we are supporting the Hunt Saboteurs Association, who will directly receive the proceeds from our Fabulous Mrs Fox bubble bar up until and including Boxing Day. In February 2005, hunting with hounds was made illegal in England and Wales (Scotland having done so a number of years previously). Sadly, despite being supported by more than % of the population and after more than 5 years of this ban being in place, hunts right across the country continue to illegally cause untold suffering to animals in the name of sport. When we first met The Hunt Saboteurs Association, we were very touched when they told us that when the legislation had been passed they had felt huge relief that they would finally be able to retire from the field now that the law would now be protecting our wildlife, but that the sad reality was that they had seen hunts continue in much the same numbers because police forces seemed reluctant to attend and enforce the ban. So they have had to continue to go out week after week, collecting evidence and filming the hunts. They tell us that as long as the Law is not enforced through the courts, they will be out on the fields of Britain, monitoring the hunts and using tried and tested non-violent tactics to get between the fox and the hounds whenever they can. They don't want to be there, but they can see that nobody else is doing the job. We feel that it is disgraceful that the Hunt Saboteurs Association, a volunteer organisation, are the only people trying to enforce a ban that was passed into Law not just by a majority in Parliament, but with overwhelming support from the majority of the British public. We also believe that this majority think that hunting has ceased now that it is against the law. Sadly this is not the case and we believe the public should have the right to know. Lush is proud to be associated with the Hunt Saboteurs Association who show the tenacity and bravery to uphold a law that our own police force and government seem reluctant to enforce, despite strong and continued support for the ban from the British public. We welcome and value feedback from all our customers, so thank you for getting in touch with us. I will be sure to pass your comments on to our Campaigns team for future consideration. Kind regards, Vicky Jansson Lush Customer Care Lush Retail Ltd T: 01202 667830 E: customerservice@lush.co.uk bunch of c**ts Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bert69 5 Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 % ? Where do you get you're figures from? The ladybird guide to rural politics perhaps? This unjust piece of legislation was forced through by an act of parliament not by the British public. The reason that sabs are the only ones out there trying to enforce it only goes to show that the British police are merely treating the act with the contempt that it deserves. Hopefully it will be repealed and we can all sleep easy, we can go about our normal business and the great uneducated and unwashed can curl up in bed with a cup of organic cocoa and read watership down.

Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted October 8, 2009 Report Share Posted October 8, 2009 Supporters of violent antis right on your doorstep .............. I'd hope they have taken some advice before putting their staff into the frontline like that. I wonder how many of their £5 an hour staff want to take the risk of being associated with the sabs.
