BY JOHN NASH The ‘animal rights’ tin-rattler and lynx magicker, Eduardo Gonçalves, has a long history of dodgy antics. John Nash has been on top of them for years. Seems that Gonçalves is at it again. MPs take note. And others wielding useful authority. Eduardo Gonçalves is at it again, trying to sneak his nasty little willie into the nether regions of the Mother of … Continue reading Just Say No
BY JOHN NASH On 4th April, Channel 4 TV News Chief Correspondent, Alex Thomson, ran a tailpiece about the continuing attempts in the Westminster Asylum to ban hunting trophy imports into the UK, together with a short article on the C4 website. He pointed out that it is still legal to import “heads and body parts of species like buffalo, lion and giraffe despite promises … Continue reading Big Cats and Polecats
BY JOHN NASH I have now recovered enough to comment on the Hunting Trophy Import Ban Second Reading in the Westminster Asylum on March 24th. Whenever trophy hunting is about to be mentioned in the Commons, you can always read the script well beforehand – it is written in the Mirror by Eduardo Goncalves. This latest mystic Mirror message promised such excitement, Dear Reader, entitled, … Continue reading ‘Colonialist’ Anti Trophy Hunting MPs Ignore the Facts (Again)
BY JOHN NASH As the old year drew to a chilly close and the shadowy fingers of the dark half of the year took their last crepuscular grasp before the re-birth of the sun and the re-Birth of the Son, something very ominous began to stir. A tremble began upon the grave of that dead, addled Private Members Bill to Ban the Importation of Hunting … Continue reading The Dodgiest APPG Ever Resurfaces
BY JOHN NASH “AT XMAS…. SICK KILLING TRADE. Reindeer horror. A Scots firm has sparked fury by selling sick reindeer shooting hunts as Christmas approaches” fulminated the Mirror with a front-page spread together with some other rags on the 18th of December. Goodness gracious. For many people, this is the season of goodwill, so this is awful. Poor Rudolph shot dead at Christmas! Except that … Continue reading Reindeer Jingle Balls
BY JOHN NASH The simple navel-lint miners of the Westminster asylum have now voted to ban the import of hunting trophies. I will try to put this into context so that readers might understand the true horror of this crass demonstration of arrogant, neo-colonial folly. The “debate” on Friday 17th March was a predictable re-run of the kabuki theatre performances seen earlier in October … Continue reading Not So Black and White, My Lords
BY JOHN NASH The cerebral world of academia has given gas-and-air birth to another classical study for the world’s edification and delight, published a couple of months ago in People and Nature and in Popular Science. Four eminent researchers have postulated that rhino horns are becoming smaller and conclude that selective human hunting might be to blame, saying, “we found evidence of declining horn size … Continue reading Horns of a Dilemma
BY JOHN NASH I love this land, so it has taken a couple of days to calm down enough to write this piece. To the utter shame of our Parliament, some of our MPs met on the 25th of January to “discuss” a Private Members Bill to prohibit the importation of hunting trophies into the UK and move it on to the next stage. Even by … Continue reading Animal Rights Con Artists Infiltrate UK Parliament
BY JOHN NASH For those of you who may have missed it, Country Squire Magazine published my piece about the outrageous, unwarranted persecution and hate-mongering voided upon an innocent, law-abiding Mr Rizwan and his family by a fly-speck gutter reporter at the Mirror. You can see that Mr Rizwan is a decent family bloke in a short video (and rather more polite article than mine) … Continue reading Trophy Hunting is Not Killing Off A Single Species
BY JOHN NASH A Private Members Bill is coming up for another airing on the 25th January – the usual theatrical performance in Sleepy Hollow, the common class debating chamber inside the Westminster Asylum. To his shame, it is the “work” of the Conservative “member from Crawley”, Henry Smith. It is a thinly veiled anti-hunting extremist trope, disguised as the “Hunting Trophies (Import Prohibition) Bill … Continue reading The Burning of Mr Rizwan
BY JOHN NASH In 2005 BC (before Carrie), Boris Johnson illuminated what was the obvious bleedin’ truth to any Conservative (or anyone with an IQ higher than their age) by writing that the fox hunting ban was “Not about cruelty but a Marxian attack by the Labour government on the upper class”. By portraying fox hunting as a cruel, upper-class thing rather than a traditional … Continue reading Only Fools & Remorses
BY JOHN NASH There is a CITES meeting in Panama this month, ostensibly to discuss global wildlife protection and trade. Like many before it, it will be infested with top-table eco-parasites sucking a living out of the more serious adult matters, led by Animal Rights Extremists and Big International NGOs all busy buying poor delegates’ votes as usual. Suspiciously coincidental, on 25th November, there is yet … Continue reading Khama Chameleon
Rural industries and field sports in the UK are in constant danger from 3P (Pillocks, Parasites and Politics) whose noisy views are usually personal daydreams or sentimentality, making such objections mainly fictional – based on neither factual truth nor understanding. It is therefore important that rural politics are subject to some sort of oversight based on truth and understanding, otherwise you end up with laws and … Continue reading Abuse of Parliamentary Rules by Animal Rights Extremists
BY JOHN NASH A report of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Banning Trophy Hunting June 29, 2022: If you wander into a meeting of the All Party Parliamentary Group on Banning Trophy Hunting (APPGBTH), you may be forgiven for thinking you have wandered into the Mos Eisley cantina in Star Wars…it is a smug, tinfoil-hat group of cranks and zealots who suffer from a bizarre, … Continue reading Trophy Hunting & Britain: The Case for a Ban
BY JOHN NASH On 12th March, the Mirror online ran the “exclusive” and tragic news that “Boris Johnson has ditched the Animals Abroad Bill” – you know, that one that would have banned the importation of hunting trophies and saved more wild animals than Noah. Apart from the fact that Boris hasn’t personally ditched the cretinous proposal, the article was the usual Mirror fake-news eco-hate-speech, this … Continue reading Animals Abroad Bill Bites the Dust
BY JOHN NASH Dear CSM Reader, There was a brief flurry of snowflakes earlier in January, when Adam Hart appeared on BBC Countrybile, the Beeb’s fluffy programme for neurodivergent urban armchair-farmers. Apparently, Mr Hart did a relevant piece about a very real problem – the rising tide of wild deer in the UK. As erudite and intelligent readers of CSM understand perfectly well, deer are horny … Continue reading Land of Woke and Tory
BY JOHN NASH Humans have always been hunters (and many still are, for reasons of everyday subsistence, therapy, sport, field management, pest control and so on) and it is an unassailable fact that we were hunters long before we were humans. So, if I may, I would like to poke a word or two in edgeways through the waterfall of infantile, woke revisionism that cascades over … Continue reading Mere Role Play
BY JOHN NASH This week, being close to the warm and optimistic celebration of Christmas and the season of goodwill towards everyone, the Mail on Sunday (MOS) ran a piece of hate-speech about British hunters going to Iceland to kill reindeer for “fun”, and “sharing gruesome pictures online of slaughtered reindeer on a pre-Christmas trip”. By some amazing coincidence, the Daily Star discovered this very … Continue reading Killing Rudolf, Killing Democracy
BY JENS ULRICH HØGH Sir Ranulph Fiennes has once again embarked on a crusade against hunting. This time in an article in The Times on July 1st. As usual, he is not afraid of working creatively with the truth. He outrageously claims without further documentation that: “Half the animals shot by trophy hunters are wounded rather than instantly killed, say US studies.” My educated guess is … Continue reading Fact Checking Sir Ranulph
BY JOHN NASH Last week, the Mirror ran a typical piece of infantile nonsense about a Trophy hunting and Field sports website, Bookyourhunt. The article features quotes from Mr Goncalves and his faithful side-kick, Sir Ranulph Fiennes. The picture shows, back row from left to right, Eduardo Goncalves of the Campaign to Ban Trophy Hunting. (CBTH), Dr Mark Jones from the Born Free Foundation, thesp Peter … Continue reading Not Fiennes!
