Re: 'Who killed cock robin', firstly I would like to know how many farmers keep hens in an old fashioned hen house?
Not many! We all know that most hens are condemned to a hellish life as battery hens.
Secondly foxes are now urbanised animals, driven from the countryside into our towns, anyway why go kill hens when you can tip over a bin and get a fast food meal?
I see more foxes in our town centre than in the countryside!
Don't be fooled into thinking you care about our countryside and therefore will join this farcical rally.
The real people who care and care for our earth (who take and therefore put something back into this abused planet) will be in Salisbury on September 22 for the pagan festival, somewhat of a coincidence that this 'bogus' rally has been set up on the same date!
It is time to accept that what these 'country folk' want is us off their land and the right to carry on barbaric and archaic cruelty.
The way forward is for everyone to take their blinkers off and give something back to the land that has served us so well, not to look to the past, just because something is a tradition does not make it right.
