It isn't really my motivation. I want to ban it not because I don't like the
huntsmen or because I don't like hunting but because I think it's wrong to
cause unnecessary pain to animals. I just took the opportunity to indulge in
a little spite and vengefulness against the 'countryside lobby' in my
posting.
Best wishes
Matthew
