This is barbaric and should be stopped

Excellent read 👇

We can see that groups like NFU and Countryside have an agenda and it is not anything to do with supporting farmers and tackling BTb

"In coming Badger".
I've found it fascinating reading the comments about Brian Mays programme on various social media platforms. You have farmers who although sceptical about the programme at first were genuinely interested in what was said and took things away from the programme. They seem to have no agenda but a genuine wish to get on top of this awful disease. And then you have the rest. Organisations who have a vested interest in keeping the status quo, and why not, not only is it a great cash cow for some, but they've also been shown to have failed the farming community in their time of need. Let's be honest, you don't have to be a rocket scientist to know, if you want disease control you don't allow cattle to stand knee deep in s**t, eat feed contaminated with s**t and then spray the s**t all over the fields. Yes dealing with this disease will require extra work and problems like how to dispose of slurry. But let's not forget spreading slurry across fields that then gets washed into rivers contributes to another ecological disaster, the death of our rivers.
And then you get the egos and their disciples. Imagine how self important you must feel to break from your holiday to post a video "My take on the Brian May programme". Just to rally the troops (sheeple). We heard his opinion on the programme, to be honest, I was embarrassed for him.
It seems for too long know this country has been run to what I call the GB News agenda. We can't allow the bigoted, the stupid to keep on setting the agendas, we need the grown ups to take control and I thought Brian May and his wonderful team did just that, especially the vet who put his neck on the line. Let's hope some of the decent farmers don't get drowned out by the gobs in society and work with people like Brian and the vet to finally end this mess.

Oh dear what a shame. The Countryside Alliance on their high horse again. Instead on taking on the current Government about the unreliable testing for Btb they are taking on the BBC and making complaints about bias.

Who do the Countryside Alliance represent, it certainly is not farmers.

Our response to 'Brian May: The Badgers, the Farmers and Me'.

Regardless of barriers the BBC may put in our way, we will be pursuing a complaint. Impartiality matters⬇️

Warning, this image may trigger certain people.
Well what a week, we've had a few melts commenting on this page haven't we. The triggering points seem to have been Brian Mays Btb documentary, even though they haven't seen it and photos of Charlie, he was even referred to as a badly stuffed fox by the "Guardians of the countryside". Imagine the melt down when they see this, Brian May with a framed photo of Charlie.
The campaign to silence Brians documentary (tonight BBC2 9pm) has been staggering. None of them have seen it, the only thing they know for sure and the reason for all the anger is, they don't kill the badger. That is the truth, a certain section of the farming community just want to kill the badger.
In other concerning news I saw on Protect the wilds twitter feed that Labour have issued a new badger cull licence in Cumbria. If true, that is blatantly going against their election manifesto, and I'm sure the reason why some of you voted Labour. Hopefully more details will emerge. Don't forget, spread the word so as many people as possible watch Brian Mays documentary tonight.

That 33% of 'Don't knows' need to get out and see the trail hunting and the truth that hunts still kill foxes

BREAKING:

Results of our Survation public survey on views of trail hunting:

49% of respondents said hunts ARE using the activity of trail hunting to get around hunting ban.

18% of respondents said hunts are NOT using the activity of trail hunting to get around the hunting ban.

The British Hounds Sports Association are holding trail hunting days, yet there is so much evidence out there that none of them know how to lay a trail.

The Circus is coming to Ashley Show Ground don't be fooled

We've been keeping this quiet for a while but can now reveal that Max Logan and Mia Cleary, huntsman and whip of the now defunkt Oakley Hunt have been charged under Section 1 of the Hunting Act and today pleaded NOT GUILTY at Luton Magistrates court.

This relates to an incident from last February where we filmed them hunting a fox and supplied the relevant evidence to Bedfordshire Police. We are pleased to report they conducted a robust investigation and the CPS were happy to proceed. The court date is set for next March however due to court pressure we expect that to change.

This prosecution will be the final nail in the coffin for the Oakley and we're happy to provide the hammer.

Cub Hunting has started in many areas of the country.

Please be vigilant and let your local anti group know if you see anything suspicious.

The Hunts will not want to be caught before the circus rolls into a venue near you (in Cheshire it is Ashley Hall Showground owned by Henry Randal Brookes) 😂😂😂😂😂

If this can be brought in for one hunt, IT COULD BE BROUGHT IN FOR ALL HUNTS IN CHESHIRE who over the years have shown disregard for landowners, been a danger on the roads, blocked roads, hunted around badger setts and coverts and hunted foxes

Only recently ex huntsman Oily Finnegan was found guilty in court for hunting a wild animal, yet Cheshire Hunt will be out on 14th September at Ashley Hall pretending they know how to lay a trail 😂

𝐓𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐲

Yesterday we told you that the Albrighton and Woodland Hunt have been issued a Community Protection Warning. This was given to them at the end of last season in March 2024. As a result of their antisocial behaviour the following requirements must be adhered to with immediate effect:

1. Inform Staffordshire Police of meet locations, including dates and the routes the trails are to be laid
2. Inform Staffordshire Police of details of people in charge at each meet – names and a contact number
3. Scent trail to be laid 20-30 mins before the hunt start off and trail layer to be recorded laying the trail – possibly with a phone or ‘go-pro’ camera, to confirm times trail laid and prove the trail was laid
4. To have the artificial scent ready to show, should officers attend and request this
5. Whipper in and huntsmen to control the hounds to prevent from straying off the scent and onto private land and not to pursue wild mammals
6. Ensure you have land owner’s permission and have all details of those land owners, in case this needs confirming
7. Trails to be laid well away from main roads and also away from woods, coverts and hedges where wildlife would naturally go to rest
8. Please remember nobody has authority to stop traffic, other than the police
9. Avoid areas where badger setts are
10. In the event of any accidental kills of wild mammals, continue to contact police straight away, leaving the animal in situ as evidence.

We have no doubt that these conditions will have come as a blow to the Albrighton, especially as they’ve never laid a trail and are renowned for their lack of hound control, (remember last season when hounds ran wild through the grounds of a special educational needs school).

As the CPW has been issued by Staffordshire Police, it is only enforceable within the Staffordshire area, however, make no mistake these conditions are a massive step in the right direction for the protection of wildlife and local communities.

Tip offs are crucial to the work we do and with cubbing imminent we urge anyone that sees or hears anything suspicious, such as a large gathering of horse boxes early in the morning or in the evening, to contact us confidentially on 07535784680.

We have had confirmation that the notorious Albrighton & Woodland Hunt have been issued with a Community Protection Warning from Staffordshire Police.

This comes as a result of their antisocial behaviour including, trespass, lack of hound control, killing of a muntjac deer and killing of a fox. They have caused damage to property as well as harassment, alarm and distress to residents and landowners.

CPW’s are issued to stop people from committing antisocial behaviour that negatively impacts the quality of life in a community. A CPW provides an opportunity for the recipient to modify their behaviour without facing formal sanctions. If the recipient does not comply with the CPW, then further sanctions may be enforced.

We did warn the Albrighton that Liability Larby and his partner Phillipa Ward would be the downfall of this hunt, and it seems that our prediction is coming true. Remarkably the BHSA have still seen fit to include the Albrighton in the upcoming “smokescreen Saturday” which will be hosted by the North Staffordshire Hunt. In our opinion any hunt that associates itself with Larby and Co must be mad, but hey what do we know?!

In the coming days we will provide further details about this CPW and what it means going forwards but for now, we’d like to say a massive thank you to everyone who has ever stood up to the Albrighton and Woodland Hunt and their organised crime group…..tick tock!

They really are sub human knuckle draggers

18/08/2024

We thought that they did not hunt foxes, so why not say 'trail'?

Pennine Foxhounds ‘blessing’ puppies to run after foxes “as fast as thee legs will carry thee.” The accent is thick, they’re also told not to chase ducks, sheep etc or mix with ‘low born’ dogs.

Oh dear Dim Tim yet again going back to the past, as he would say 'the good old days' where bounties were placed on foxes, next he will want to bring back public floggings, drowning anyone suspected of being a witch.

The reality for the dogs of these scum that go out badger baiting.

How on earth can family, girl friends or friends of the scum know what they do an not feel physically sick is beyond us. They are as bad as the ones perpetrating these vile acts.

We need tougher laws for the knuckle draggers and those ones that knowingly aid them by not reporting to the police

A hard-hitting post by Motherwell District Wildlife Protection on the cruel reality of badger baiting.

This badger sett in Carluke, Lanarkshire, is (was) one of the go-to setts for scum breaking in young terriers.

It is here they would disable the badger so it wouldn't be able to fight as hard as it would against an older dog. They like to cut the tendons, dislocate the jaw, smash teeth out, pull claws or cut them .

Not all dogs will face a badger. Although it would run from cats, foxes and everything else it would easily kill either, while not even getting out of first gear. You can imagine what that young dog is faced with.

If it shows any sign of weakness it's over for the dog. The owners can't risk the embarrassment.

Imagine a dog getting a kicking, its face is in a mess. It's in agony and traumatised. It's thrown in a car, dumped in a cold , damp kennel and left to suffer.

If the injuries are bad like jaws hanging off it is either killed (after hundreds of photos are taken) or it's glued and stapled back together.

They will boast like mad about this dog and soon take it back out for people to see it work themselves.

That dog remembers the kicking it got but it's forced to fight again but it doesn't want to so it's beaten and probably killed.

This is the reality that we are fighting and its becoming more common due to social media .

Looking forward to Brian Mays Badger documentary next Friday on BBC. I've noticed on a certain farming page that they're getting a bit twitchy, worried it will change the narrative they've been able to sell the Tories in recent years. Some of the comments to the posts on the farming page make me laugh. Imagine not seeing the irony of telling a doctor in Astrophysics to stick to playing the guitar and yet a sheep farmer is the font of all knowledge. As always whenever a certain section of the population want to kill something, they bring out either the Curlew or the Hedgehog to justify their slaughter. Let's just be clear, the decline in both species has never been natural predation from a native predator. It's been loss of habitat, pesticides, weedkiller, cars, cutting hay meadows before ground nesting birds can fledge. In fact it's everything to do with an over population of humans and their demands on the planet.
Just to show how people try to twist the narrative. Imagine putting up a video of an obviously sick hedgehog, out during the day near a pheasant feeder and then trying to make out pheasant rearing is somehow good for nature, you couldn't make it up. But that's what a certain farming page tries to sell.
