Couple of clips of the Blackmore & Sparkford Vale foxhunt on Michael Eavis' land at Worthy Farm, Pilton, Somerset from a couple of seasons ago.

Doesn't show them actually hunting (there aren't many footpaths over his land to film from) but they did chase a fox over the main road outside the festival site causing a big traffic jam just after moving off from the meet at Sticklinch. Should they be causing these problems if they are trail hunting?

Eavis has allowed both fox and hare hunts to hunt all over his land before and after the 2005 hunting ban, so when he rattles on about peace and love and the hippy lifestyle, you know what a hunt supporting hypocrite he actually is.

Hunt Saboteur wins £5,500 pay out from Wiltshire Police

Payout follows wrongful arrest at pheasant shoot

A hunt saboteur today agreed to accept a settlement of £5,500 from Wiltshire Constabulary in respect of a claim for wrongful arrest and subsequent false imprisonment dating from October 2001.

The arrest took place at Ham, near Hungerford, and the saboteur was one of a group of 11 protestors who located a pheasant shoot and used non-violent direct action to prevent further shooting*. The remaining 10 protestors are currently in consultation with the solicitors, Irwin Mitchell of Sheffield, with respect to other possible claims. The settlement was reached on the day the case was due to be heard at Swindon County Court.
