Here's an interesting factoid

[Sooty]

Our local hunt's membership has increased threefold since the ban. As they say, there is no such thing as bad publicity. Anyone else's hunt benefitted from the ban?

I think that's happened almost countrywide! :grin: Good thing too IMO!

Watch out for Boxing Day Meets! For every one that TV news says has trouble, there'll be hundreds more that don't, I'd bet my life on it. There always seem to be more people out supporting us every year, let's hope it continues!

No horse and no time so no idear about local hunts(which would be the Rockwood, so I'm sure Rosiie will have the stats!) but do know a lot more people that want to go now.
I am so happy that hunts are not only still going but thriving post ban.

Alot more people i know have tried hunting simply because of the ban publicising it..excellent if you ask me.

So much for the moaning Cassandras who went on endlessly about the thousands of jobs that would be lost in the event of a ban!

 

[flying_change]

Is your local hunt hunting legally ?

 

[wurzel]

Has hunting been banned ?

I think you need to change your source of info Jerry !!!
