Highlander Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 In a letter on behalf of the Conservative leadership, former Chief Whip David MacLean MP instructs MPs "to reassure our friends in the hunting world that a Tory government would overturn the Hunting Act as a matter of urgency." and boy will he be reminded of that when they get returned.

naddan28 Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Also I hear he deerstalks and shoots pheasants! Things are looking up :unsure: assuming he stays true to his sport and doesn't engage in appeasment politics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobt Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Our new local candidate for the tories is a shooting man, wonder who I will be voting for this time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lurcherboy Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 The only problem is my MP, Roger Gale, voted for the ban and he is a tory that was brought up with the hunt :unsure: When I contacted him he said he was willing to discuss the proposed ban but would not change his views. We never met :o LB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hughiep Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Of course they ALL tell you what they want you to hear, then get voted in and totaly disreguard anything they said......also if you dont vote you cant moan about who is or isnt running the country.

Lurch Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 also if you dont vote you cant moan about who is or isnt running the country Of course you can. Anyway if I didn't vote it might mean that the Labour guy gets a 12,001 majority instead of 12,000 - so what's the point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 also if you dont vote you cant moan about who is or isnt running the country Of course you can. Anyway if I didn't vote it might mean that the Labour guy gets a 12,001 majority instead of 12,000 - so what's the point? It is a good job we all don't take that attitude. You were given the chance to vote and decided not to, therefore keep schtum or however you spell it. If you don't vote then you may as well vote labour, the only way things will change is if you get off your back side and vote for one of the others.
