The footage here appears to show that posh sadists are not hunting 'trails' but are actually hunting foxes!

This comes as as a huge surprise to me!

In the year of the 10 year anniversary of the Brexit vote, here's my in-depth, considered analysis:

Brexit was promoted by coin-operated twats with something to gain and voted for by xenophobes too stupid to read around the subject

How is Farage not tarnished by this national debacle?

Why is he not only not held to account by the UK media but almost feted on shows such as Question Time?
Every few months a new study appears saying that Brexit’s costs have been large. Leave supporters retort that the figures are exaggerated—but the fixation on precise numbers misses the broader point
Brexit has deepened the British economy’s flaws and dulled its strengths
The question is what to do about it

Daily consumers of bottled water ingest over 90,000 more microplastic particles than people who drink tap water.

There are no warnings on bottles.

Either companies do not test their products, or conceal the harms to boost profits and exec pay.

What do regulators do?
Bottled water drinkers ingest 90,000 more microplastic particles each year
New review finds people who drink tap water ingest only about 4,000 microplastic particles a year

This is Richard Smith of the South Durham Hunt and he thinks it’s ok to hit a horse over the head. Make this ‘man’ famous.
