scorps thanks for the agree to disagree. Stances are diametrically opposed from the key points of a) is it necessary for control, b) is it the most humane way, c) is it acceptable to control animals and b) is it effective as a method. That's fine, we can disagree on the above - no problem.
I think we do agree that raping maids and smearing blood is not cool.
We also agree that neither of us are in any way anything other than animal lovers.
We disagree entirely on the fact that that there is a class element to hunting and therefore being a socialist means that it's wrong to hunt (to paraphrase). I'm not going to argue the point, just to state that I disagree.
Everyone agrees that this is absolutely not the forum for this conversation. Polly - I am happy to answer your question privately via FB but this is the last I will say on the matter other than thank you for separating a single stance from a personality, as I do too, and once again I apologise for raising it. Iggy Apologies.
Girls, back to scorps knickers. V exciting. "Watching this space".
