THE recent pro-Liberty/Livelihood march in London by the Countryside Alliance was impressive, but somewhat confusing.
What more freedom do the farmers want? To spray more pesticide, insecticide and other chemicals to produce greater crop yields?
More freedom to inject cows with steroids to produce milk way beyond their milk-producing life span?
Even more confusing and perhaps sad, is that Prince Charles feels so passionate about fox hunting that, if it is banned, he will leave the country. Do the public ever need greater evidence that Prince Charles is unfit to be king?
