There was some recent confusion among correspondents as to the exact targets of the Countryside Alliance.
However, regular readers can refer back to the lead letter of August 13, 2001 -"Watch out - they'll ban angling next" - for a precise definition.
The anonymous writer states: "As a campaigning organisation, the Countryside Alliance is pledged to combat the animal rights agenda. It has the mission to defend all country sports, including angling, with determination."
They must really hate the compassionate culture of Brighton, widely acknowledged as the vegetarian capital of Europe.
