I guess you mean the|Countryside alliance rally.
It is a pity really, some of the marchers will and have genuine grievances.
affordable housing, shops, Public transport,
However the whole thing is going to be used by the Fox and Deer hunting
fraternity to say to the Government
"Look at the amount of people that support ripping the guts out of Deer and
Foxes whilst still alive in the name of sport"

Just a thought.
How many people on the March,complaining about affordable housing and the
closure of village shops
1) Totally support the village shop and never drive to the nearest
Supermarket.

2) When selling their propery, sell a local for £80.000 instead of putting
it on the market for someone to buy as a holiday home for say £120.000
At the end of the day The countryside as got to start helping itself.

You should have come. The various hunts -were- all there - they have
the organisation to set transport and publicity and they are in the direct
firing line after all, hunts made up the bulk of the organised parties
present. Most marchers were not hunters and not in organised parties.
Farming folk outnumbered the hunters and even then the two groups together
were probably less than half the marchers.

- and don't fall for that stupidly emotive language which even the anti's
don't believe (they merely trot it out to engage the squamish.)

Cheerio,

I would like to complain about the lack of adequate coverage on Radio 4's
Today programme of the Liberty and Livelihood march organised by the
countryside alliance.

On Monday morning's Today programme I was expecting an in depth analysis of
all sides of the debate on the issues raised by the march.

Given the march was the largest public protest this country has ever seen
and concerned Government policy on a wide range of rural issues, I would
like to know why the only coverage in the Today programme was only headline
reporting and a brief report of the coverage by the mornings papers. There
was no further analysis as one would usually expect on an issue that caused
so many people to take to the streets.

The political bias of the editor of the programme is a matter of public
record (see Tuesdays Guardian column by Today editor Rod Little) but it may
be the case that there are other within the corporation that share that the
sale bias but operate under a cloak of faceless anonymity.

Consequently I believe there should be an investigation of all the political
views of everyone who contributed to the editorial decision not to cover
this topic as I believe the political bias shown raises serious issues over
the impartiality of the BBC as a publicly funded organisation.
