SIR – Every year we have to read reports in the Worcester News about the Boxing Day fox hunting meets.

I have written in anger about this before.

Your coverage sparks lengthy debates on either side of the argument via letters and online comments.

After being involved in such debates, the letters continue well into the late spring, or at least until the editor finally decides to draw a close to the subject.

There was an interesting article (Worcester News, January 4) about a convicted farmer who tried to stop illegal activities on his land (hare coursing and lamping) with force, which says it all in my eyes.

This sends out a message – if you physically stop someone who is indulging in illegal activities on your land; you (not they) will be judged. Where is the justice?

So much for all farmers welcoming hunting.

What a load of nonsense.
