Mr Ferry & his merry men

Should this not be in the Hunting part?

No doubt they deserved it. Why is it they are more than happy to video us about our business but run to the police and say we are intimidating them if we attempt to video them videoing us eh? Why should it be ok for them but not for us? So called 'hunt monitors' make me sick to the teeth and their whinging about 'their' rights, where are ours?
 
As soon as I saw the article i could guess exactly which 'moniters' it would be.

Anybody who invades the privacy of members of the public, whether they are riding a horse or even simply driving past where they happen to be standing should not be too surprised when occasionally people react to what they are doing.

IF offences of theft and damage have been committed I have no doubt they will be properly dealt with and this kind of behaviour cannot be condoned..no matter how excruciatingly tiresome Ms Little and her friends may be.

Edited to add - I think the newspaper article is incorrect in stating that the incident occurred in David Cameron's constituency, it almost certainly occurred in gloucestershire which is not his area as far as i am aware.
 
Otis is capable of hurting a camera for sure - but hurting any female. I wouldnt believe it..
Ive hunted with him a few times, (incl times where the SSH has had probs with the "telford" frat. He has remained a gentleman at all times

He has been arrested, and bailed, and has a court date...so yes i do believe it.

It says he's on police bail until 8 January, which would imply that there's not enough evidence to proceed at present.

I think the hunts have to accept that now the ban is in force they will be monitored, and probably by some irksome people. However, they are not above the law and should try to show some restraint in the face of provocation. Stories like this one being published, whether true or false, win them no friends.
 
I think if some people in a car followed me around videoing me I would be inclined to clock them 1, and I think most of the population would do the same.

Maybe these self-appointed monitors should try following and videoing some likely offenders in somewhere like Nottingham City Centre for an evening. I bet the locals there would have some fun with them...
 
Tricky one isn't it, how to have free speech and a free democratic country and freedom to ride across other peoples land to hunt, but keep the riff raff in their place without treading on their freedom and rights, difficult balancing act.

They`ll always go for soft targets, not a chance in h*ll they will film anything like Travelers going coursing.

if they did they would find out about getting their cameras broken!

I had a quick look at the POWA website to get some idea of their side of the story- appears tO have been frozen in time (and not recently)
 
With regard to hunt monitors videoing followers. If the field they are videoing includes children surely that is against the law, filming children without their or a parents permission?
Parents aren't allowed to film their own children at our local swimming baths so I am surethe monitors actions must be illegal. I wouldn't be very happy if they had filmed my daughter when she was younger, and still wouldn't now tbh even though she is 19.

Cameras and car taken and kneecaps and ribs broken more likely. If they were really lucky, they might escape with their faces recognisable...
 
Police aint gonna be interested in travellers, it's too complicated for them with human rights crap way of life thrown in there face, and of course they dont play ball as they keep moving around after dumping their shite for the rest of us to clear up, now, "YOUR" human rights and way of life comes nowhere, as your a tax paying NI numbered drone with a name and address and an accesible bank account to screw money out of.
