The minister for snowdrops and daffodils has already issued the licences for catching up hares to the coursing clubs this year. But he is still in debate with the Ward stag hunt (I might be mistaken here) and has yet to issue them with a licence to hunt.

 

Political blogs or forums like the one you have linked are full of opinion, but often have little or no substance. That said, an eye must be kept on that part of the government, and such forums are often an early indicator of things to come.

 

As Polonius said, we often "by indirections find directions out".

Agree, how long will it be, next year prehaps??, It does not sound good and the way they do things over here, i would call it, follow the leader.

What ever seems to happen in the Uk, the government over here, wants the same, no fecking mind of their own!!

This counrtry went to the dogs when it joined the E.U, in my opinion.

Frank,

your a month behind!

green minister? he's a c*nt, the animals rights (not welfare)policy of the greens has been written by Gerry Boland of AFAR(a group running a campaign against St Josephs school for the visually impaired, because it raised money through greyhound racing) real hard core nut bars.

the minister gave some licences too late for a few coursing meeting to be held and refuse licences to 2 clubs, but too much money is in coursing so it got through.

but they have singled out the ward union(remember the thread on here where loads of guys were saying it was cruel and should be banned well they might get their wish) but most hunting people in Ireland have been getting behind them. the thin end of the wedge policy.

No lads i dont think it will happen over here,

there is too many people involved in the sport at the moment,i have attended many coursing meets and you would be amazed by the amount of top people that are involved in it,politicians,judges to mention a few.and the amount of money that this sport generates,but if ever it did get baned ,would it stop you,i know myself they would have to kill me to stop me from doing what i enjoy.
