Looks like this is the way forward There is a shoot on Pyewell Park, I wonder if this may be something to do with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGHTCHOKE Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 Packham was removed from "Dogstival" because the organisers are keen to show they have no political agenda and Packham certainly does! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They seem to accept everything Packham alleges as 'evidence'....I will retract this if the organisers of the event publish the alleged threats from their own website, on line!

scobydog Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 Wouldn't trust anything the bbc said, I would also like to see the evidence of the threat of the crash as well or is it more fake news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokersmith Posted May 13, 2019 Report Share Posted May 13, 2019 Not sure I agree with some of the interpretations here ... Dog lovers are holding a festival .. Packham was going ... but due to the real risk of many unhappy dog/countryside lovers 'kicking off' against him, he's not attending. Remove Packham = remove risk, and waggy tails all round.

It does make him the victim and the opposition cast as a violent bunch of thugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
