        Please sign this petition to protect British Wildlife, the current (unelected) Coalition Government are pushing for a repeal of the hunting act assisted by the British Press and Media.This has become clear by the number of reports showing urban foxes in a negative light and alleged attacks on children, teenagers adults and pets. There were NO such reports before the ConDem Alliance came to power. Strange don't you think?

The Press and Media (and possibly the Police) are all seemingly in the pockets of the Countryside Alliance - a large affluent organization who think they own the countryside and believe that terrorizing and murdering foxes, deer, hares and otters is acceptable in the name of sport! They argue that is an English Tradition but so was bull baiting, wife beating, burning heretics at the stake and hanging witches. Even corporal punishment has been banned in the UK but some people still believe it is acceptable for a pack of hounds to rip another smaller animal to pieces whilst it is still alive. They never die from a "quick bite to the back of the neck" as Post mortem results show. The rest of Europe is waking up to animal cruelty issues - Spain is even phasing out bullfighting, you can't get any more traditional than that, isn't it time we "make cruelty history" too

A new post has been created in the Cabinet - a minister for Hunting, Shooting and Fishing (Murder, terrorism and killing) and has already been filled by a renowned farmer and wildlife hater James Paice. Even the Minister responsible  for the Police is a member of a hunt !

A Mori Poll last year has shown that 75% British public are against this including 72% of those who live in the Countryside, many of whom have lost pets to errant hounds (which are themselves mistreated by the hunts) and had boundaries and property damaged by trespassing hunts.  A farmer in the West Country has lost stock through stillbirths and the shock of baying hounds has led her goats milk to dry up. She is frequently intimidated and threatened by the local hunt as she refuses to allow them on her land - the local Police are useless and probably also  receiving back handers from the CA.

Despite this the Government - many of whom are hunters themselves and obviously have no  no comprehension of democracy and majority are shortly going to vote on a bill which could see the the return of this barbaric wildlife terrorism. Their basis for voting - should be the wishes of the majority of their constituents right? Wrong - it is to be their own personal choice. The Prime Monster wants to ask a bunch of people who go hunting or are receiving cash for votes from the CA are going to be asked to vote about whether it should be allowed again. Now how do you think they will be voting?

THE MONSTER

Sclerosis! From the greek word 'skleros' meaning hard,
Scars are born and develop around the nerves.
The body gives up, like a solid piece of ice...melting.
A relapse will then catch you off guard.

Harsh times you will suffer, wanting to be like another,
Drawn to a bed of pain, three quarters of the day.
Unable to move, yet wanting to,
As you question, when will you be ok?

You've still got so much to give,
Yet it's not over for you, and it never will.
Incurable as ever, it'll be there forever,
As you sit knowing you've too much pride to admit you're ill.

The many different regions are the 'Multiple'
The central nervous system relentlessly traumatised and unbalanced.
You may have damaged myelin, sitting there reminiscing,
About your cousins wedding..that day you danced.

The monster will always lie awaiting you,
Sucking in your strength and slurring your speech.
The monster lurks in dark confusion
As you tighten your eyes wishing to awake out of its reach.

Shedding as many as you can,
Till the tears have been wept.
Alas you rest all the hours of the day,
Until all sleep is slept.

A prisoner in your own body you will remain,
Loving yourself for yourself, for there is no more fun.
As it eats away at your body you scream, for this pain to go away,
Tears splash down your cheeks as your body tingles, the pins and needles have now begun.

Everay morning, noon, and night you'll remember and know,
When you sleep you'll remember and know.
And when you wake, you'll remember and know,
That Multiple Sclerosis will follow you wherever you go.

I love you MuM...

Hi, My name is Jenny Harrod and this is my "AutoBlography" No, I'm no-one special and my story is by no means unique. I'm not ever going to be famous or rich, nor a great explorer or inventor. I'm just another face in the crowd - my only outstanding features being my height at six foot one and a half (or five foot thirteen and a half as I used to say with a smile to elderly patients), the fact I have Multiple Sclerosis, I was unable to have children (life sucks!) and I had to take ill health retirement following a back injury just as I'd qualified as a District Nursing Sister - Family or career? someone somewhere didn't want me to have either!

I have not lived a particularly exciting life (yet!!) but if one person finds a little comfort or inspiration here then it has been worth it.

Enjoy your visit.
