Just got this, from one of those woke, online petition sites:

" This is outrageous. Shropshire Council has given £50,000 intended to help struggling businesses...to fox hunting groups. [1] While shops on our high streets close their doors, crucial aid that's meant to help them weather the Covid-19 crisis has gone to fund cruel bloodsports instead. [2]

Animal welfare groups and some MPs are already kicking up a fuss. [3] They’re saying this money shouldn't be used this way. Now what's needed is a massive outcry from the public - to show we don't want public funds going to this cruel practice.

A huge petition, signed by thousands of us and sent directly to Shropshire Council, would send a clear message to the council - and others across the country: taxpayers’ money shouldn’t be used to fund animal cruelty. "

alot of the local hunts ( kennels = fox hounds) are having hard time, most is funded by few farmers  other land owners , but few farmers have dropped back a bit with there funding , so some hunts could poss pack up, and they pts all the hounds , and the hound man lost house and job. i was speaking  to a nice woman last week , she told me her husband  left the hound job , went driving  and bit of farm work now. not into the horse back fox hunting as such, but do like to see any boxing day meet  in the winter, shame if it all packs up in the end , then suppose they be like us lurcher and terrier  people .

They're at it, again:

" Dear Kunt,

This is outrageous. Shropshire Council has given £50,000 intended to help struggling businesses...to fox hunting groups. [1] While shops on our high streets close their doors, crucial aid that's meant to help them weather the Covid-19 crisis has gone to fund cruel bloodsports instead. [2]

Animal welfare groups and some MPs are already kicking up a fuss. [3] They’re saying this money shouldn't be used this way. Now what's needed is a massive outcry from the public - to show we don't want public funds going to this cruel practice.

A huge petition, signed by thousands of us kuntz and sent directly to Shropshire Council, would send a clear message to the council - and others across the country: taxpayers’ money shouldn’t be used to fund animal cruelty.

So, Kunt, if you think councils should be supporting our struggling businesses - not fox hunting groups - please will you sign the petition today?

SIGN THE PETITION

We only know about this grant from Shropshire Council because of a “freedom of information” request. [4] That means this could be happening in other parts of the country as well. So we need to send a big message that will echo right across the UK.

38 Degrees members like you have a proud record of protecting animal welfare. Whether it’s upholding our high animal welfare standards or campaigning to stop cruel hunting methods - we speak up for our animal friends who can’t speak for themselves. [5]

So please will you sign the petition today, and share this petition with your friends and family, to send a big message to Shropshire Council?

SIGN THE PETITION


Thanks for everything you do, you kunt.

Michael, Mike, Maggie and the 38 Degrees team

When they start a petition against a shirt lifting OAP getting £K's of public money for flaunting himself in front of tiny school children, I'll post it here.

Don't hold your fukking breath.
