In claiming that "townies" are the only people opposed to hunting, the Countryside Alliance seem a little two faced. I live in a small town in West Sussex. When the Countryside Alliance have support in the town they say this is because they are "country folk" and when they have opponents it is because they are "townies".
Whatever your views on hunting, if you live in the country you see the Countryside Alliance at close quarters and hear their views on racial minorities, asylum-seekers, trade unionists and various other people they would cheerfully set the dogs on.
