There also seems to be different levels of compassion for different racetracks. Aintree - widespread TV coverage, radio coverage etc. Sedgefield where two horses died in the same race in November 2022 - not a sausage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that I agree. I put them outside. Nicely edited to not show the differences. You compared these protestors to the Sufragettes when in reality their actions are nowhere near what the suffragettes were willing to do. Can you imagine a suffragette meeting Lizzie Baker - I left gunpowder at the side of the stage at the theatre and attempted to light it Mary leigh - I threw a hatchet axe at the PM but missed, its ok though i got the Irish MPJohn Redmond instead on his ear Tarquin from Just stop oil - I sat on a snooker table and played with powder paint. dont even compare these tossers to the suffragettes and their actions Why do i need a look at the site. I am fully aware that horses die in the name of sport. they also die not in the name of sport same as other animals do. Do you value different animals at different levels? Coudl i take a guess that you are vegan? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coudl i take a guess that you are vegan? I'm not following these unfocussed rants of yours, are you saying current high profile protestors should be killing people and blowing things up? That's not something I agree with I'm afraid Your other points seem to be non-sequiturs so I can't really answer them, but I value everything that's living and since working in a slaughterhouse I've never eaten meat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a set of bored rich kids and oldies with nothign better to do and no point to their actions. I dont see any racing stopped or curtailed by these idiots, should have just let the race go ahead, see how long Tarquin stayed on the course with 40 horses bearing down on him. So you think these protestors are not bad at all and just amateurs really compared to the suffragettes? I wonder why everybody else on your side is up in arms then. Do they know something that you don't. They wanted your attention along with everyone else's - they got your attention you are writing about them on here. Another win to them. Just give it time. It took the suffragettes quite a while but, they did it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This lot want to go back to the dark ages basically, whilst they brand the protesters as hooligans. They just don't see the irony of what they say, and what they like.

I just pointed out that this lot are amateurs and will be tomorrows chip shop paper. Anyone remember the massive impact Stumpy and his lot had? Whats happeend to Extinction Rebellion these days? Just Stop Oil will be remembered as the paint people in a couple of years and thats it they couldnt win a 1 horse race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To do something that is quite unique in their history " He makes it sound like these numbskulls are the SAS!! 😂😂😂😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
