How I agree with Peter Allen's comments (Letters, June 19). Through the democratic process, hunting will be banned. I am fed up with hunters crying crocodile tears for their loss of jobs, the numbers of which have been grossly inflated.

A more serious loss of employment will be at Sussex Police. What on earth will the dozens of officers who turn out every week for a handful of protesters at local hunts do with themselves?

May I suggest tackling the real crime suffered by real people, instead of being lackeys for the rich.
