Two Sides of Tony (T.S.) McPhee Review by Mike DeGagne

..The second half of the album is comprised of "The Hunt," which is just as esoteric and sagacious as it is long and opens up with the ARP 2600 synthesizer mimicking an eerie, echoed howl of a dog in the distance. McPhee bellows and rants in a penetrating manner about the unethical nature of war and humankind's inhumanity throughout the ages, switching ever so smoothly to his abstract philosophies about the corruption of power and the mystery of fate, life, and death. Not only is his poetry forceful, but the overlapping of the electric piano and drum synthesizer shroud the piece with an ornate progressive ambience, adding a deeper sense of intrigue to his words and creating a rather bizarre electronic climate...""

Earthling Ed made a short video about one of the most ridiculous "movements" by rich white people in the UK:

<💬>
Fox hunters in the UK are attempting to have themselves classified as an ethnic minority so that they can claim legal protections. Isn't that one of the most ludicrous statements you've ever read! Clearly something doesn't add up here, so in this video I discuss their arguments and analyse why fox hunters believe they should be a legally protected ethnic minority.

That's right. The core of conservatism. "Rules for thee, but not for me." They're trying to make it into an ethnic thing too, so that can only fit with traditionalist supremacist views bound tightly with monarchism and aristocracy.

Some good news

#Labour has blocked 11 hunts from riding on government land.

Licences for trail hunting on Ministry of Defence land have not been issued for the new season, which began on Sept 1.

Trail hunting is one of the remaining permitted forms of hunting on horseback with hounds since the banning of #foxhunting.

Ministers are understood to be reviewing “all options”, including the possibility of ending licences to deliver on their pledge to ban trail hunting before a decision is made.

The Dunston Harriers (aka #foxhunting bastards) meet every year at the market cross in Wymondham, Norfolk, an event dating back to at least the 1960s and attended by several thousand people.

But this year, Wymondham Town Council took the decision to ban them from meeting in what it called, "outdated practice"

They said they were trail hunting or whatever ...

@bhasic If I was to weigh-up #foxhunting then it would be from a practical point of view to ask if it scores any merit / reasoning?

(unfinished but making points)

☑️ Does it provide practical purpose to people ?

Example: Forests sometimes do need clearing of animals IF over-populated with tigers / foxes etc... hard to know this but locals usually do this caringly (having seen it in Europe taken foxes out to help forest) and to preserve feeding deer or wild pigs (which they propagate for food and keep them going too)

Problem would be putting a fox somewhere as a sport and not just local maintenance.

☑️ Does it provide nature / locals purpose ?

Example: Is it part of a larger subset of things which in a circle it provides. If not, then move on or consider it more artificial.
I like there are keeping horses alive for example, they look well taken care of and even horses / ponies can work as part of "old ways" as some hunting was part of living...

====================
DISCLAIMER
====================

Some reasons so it's not just emotional (the suffering of animals aside for a moment) because being alive is a kind of paradox we're in for other species to die but we can do it based on real needs and maybe not luxury sports)

A May 2024 article in the Northumberland Gazette reveals that xe isn't bringing a court case, but in fact has declared xyrself a legal expert and written a pre-prepared defence ("a mini-PhD") for *others* to use, if they are foolhardy enough to use Ed Swales as their solicitor in whatever case they face.

And some barrister has since said "I could certainly argue that, old chap. For a fee, of course."

Ed Swales is ex-Army and heretofore largely neutralized, with respect to the friendly fire damage to #foxhunting that xe could do, as little more than an obscure occasional contributor to Country Squire Magazine.

Xyr article about Rishi Sunak has to be read to be believed. (Including when you see what the magazine editor used in its URL instead of its headline.)
