WHY does huntsman John Holliday think he's hard done by because he might lose his job.

I was made redundant last October, I also live in rented accommodation, but I just had to go and find a new job. As for farriers, feed merchants etc losing business if there is a hunt ban, most rural people who go horse riding do not want to kill animals, so these businesses won't lose out.

As for hounds being destroyed, offers have been made to various hunts to re-home hounds.

As a vegan I am against livestock farming and I would think that to arable farmers foxes are friends as they keep down rabbit and pigeon populations.

So Mr Holliday, stop whinging, stop killing small animals and get a decent job instead.
