Either that or he is off filling out his licence application while its still cheap.

 

I very much doubt he'll pass the stringent tests they perform on Certificate holders

Maybe not, but he'll be footing the bill, whether he likes it or not!

 

I bet he doesn't make a net contribution to society. So those who do are probably subsidising him

Chase up the millionaires who owe the country taxes and we can all have one :)

 

Who are these people? Why aren't the government chasing them?

No they arnt. The vast majority of Farmers hold shotgun licenses , and you dont get much more working class than Farmers.

 

Farmers are the same as any self employed people. Some are scraping a living but some are multi millionaires! You can't put them all in the working class bracket!

...reads the Guardian article.

 

Oh it's Monbiot, prepare for an incredible amount of lefty s****.....

 

...and I'm not disappointed. He really is a first class pillock.

 

but the vast majority are............

 

They are not mel - the largest holders of shotguns by far are arable farmers. Monbiot is very very very wrong on his characterisation

So why are firearms subsidised?

 

I agree with the point made further up. If it costs the police (the taxpayer) £196 to agree to the issue of a licence then that cost should be passed on to the person wanting the licence or the police should refuse to issue it.

 

Why should the taxpayer pick up the bill for someone who wants to shoot things? It's your hobby, you pay for it.

 

Why should we pay for the cost of issuing a driving licence?

 

If you want to drive a car and have fun it's your hobby you pay for it....

 

A shotgun is a tool, just like a car is. Just because you are narrowminded enough to assume that all shotgun users are people you don't like doesnt mean that everyone should be striped with that brush.

 

Shotguns are needed in society. Time for you and everyone else to pony up like a good little socialist.
