It’s a public press release welcoming a positive response to a parliamentary question. It’s not hidden in the members only area of the BASC site. Why do you think it should be delayed? The BASC bashers will bash, even if they solved world hunger, cured all disease and secured shooting’s future till the end of time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enfieldspares Posted May 27, 2020 Report Share Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) Yes. I can see the release now "BASC welcomes the clarity of the Home Office statement confirming that the future of shooting isn't. BASC members will be assured that this now gives members the certainty they need over the future of shooting...that there isn't one."

Dave-G Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 I'd imagine its quite chancy for some police chiefs or FLO's to continue using the 'we have not been told' obstructive line now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
