At the risk of getting everyone going again, but only really to inform you of what our politicians are up to, read this
10% of MPs want to ban game shooting and rearing | Shooting and field sports news, politics and legal | Shooting UK | Shooting UK
Couldn't happen to fishing, of course, could it?! Rearing fish for angling bears absolutely no comparison to rearing pheasants for shooting, does it?
Just ask yourselves how many things that many of us grew up with and thought utterly acceptable and 'normal' have changed within our lifetimes. Smoking, once accepted as elegant and even good for you is demonised, homosexuality once a crime is now legal, drink-driving equates to potential murder, divorce was a badge of shame, now it's just s**t that happens. Look at old photos of crowd scenes - everyone used to wear hats, while few do now. More examples of how the world can turn 180 degrees in a lifetime are welcome, but the fact that change can happen quiickly should never be ignored.
