Scottish consultation on hunting with dogs

[Luckee legs 471]

Hi there, I picked this link from Twitter feed of Tweed Valley Rat Pack. Worth taking a few minutes to fill in this survey re. hunting with dogs in Scotland. As I went through it is clear this is not just "clarification" there are people seeking to changing the rules on hunting rabbits and rats. Not in a good way

It always amazes me. All of the dark and horrible stuff happening in the world, all of the ways our planet and society are falling apart ........ and folk are passionately worried about people chasing a fox about with some dogs. A sense of perspective is what some folk sorely lack.

I have faith we are going to have abit of a reset in this country at some stage. We carnt keep going down this road of pandering to the kinda snowflake and woke way of looking at everything. Where u carnt disagree with or criticise anyone , where u are pushed to be ashamed of our history and heritage and anyone who disagrees with it and speaks out against it is immediately a racist or homophobe or any other “ist” or “phobe” u wanna pull out of thin air. 

Cos I really believe that this way of thinking is in reality a small minority.  Yet we seem to go down this road more and more and pander to it more and more.  I really don’t think most people in the uk think like this. 

 

I reckon if u asked the average person on the street what the laws are around hunting with dogs, they wouldn’t have a clue and wouldn’t care.  I really do think we pander to a very loud and intolerant  minority on so many things, it’s bloody crazy and won’t last I hope.

Very well said.

Do not underestimate how badly this could end. Lawful/exempted hunting  has clearly been caught up in the questionable political (independence) pact between the greens and Stugeon. The potential ramifications alongside the further restrictions on fox control are a total ban on rabbiting and ratting with dogs in Scotland. Following that there’ll be further pressure to do the same South of the border and elsewhere in the UK. 
 

If you value what is left of lawful hunting in the UK then engage with this consultation, write to your MSP during this process if you live in Scotland and ideally join one of the organisations such as SACS and tell them why.

Sad to say we are ultimately doomed.

It's not a consultation. It's a disingenuous smokescreen, so the government can claim everybody was consulted  and, as a result, it decided upon  a certain course of action.

 The reality is  that the decision to press ahead with further legisaltion has already been made.

I have explained the position to my dogs and they have promised me they will obey existing and new laws at all times.
