In Brian Sedgley's letter (Evening Advertiser, September 10) about the Countryside Alliance march on Sunday, September 22, he somehow forgot to mention that the march is purely in support of hunting with hounds nothing more and nothing less.

There are some misguided souls out there, without the power of independent thought, who are going along for the day out.

Prince Charles is paying his Highgrove staff to go.

But they will all be used in the Countryside Alliance statistics to prove that a large majority of country folk enjoy animal abuse and cruelty.
