why don't we try and get the tackle dealers and suppliers to fund any such organization that supports anglers as its our money that drives the industry, surely they would lose out if angling got banned.

good point - but i think we need to be organised true, but not hysterical - the media would jump on it and then give the anti anglers a platform

as i see it they are miniscuil at the moment - with very little support financially or mediawise

we just need to be PREPARED if they ever do so - so they cant take the jump on us

my two cents

Many hope the trial will answer the question that has become a chorus among animal lovers: Why would that organisation beginning with P kill animals, many of them healthy, and dump their bodies like trash?


i wonder will it get televised this end of the world??

Note membership numbers and budget. Consider how many supporters they have to raise that sort of dosh...and that they're organised.
