I HAD the considerable displeasure of witnessing an act of great cruelty on a visit to a popular fishing spot near your office on Saturday.
A group of people were engaged in a fishing contest. I could not believe that this hideous and grotesquely cruel practice is still permitted under British Law.
The poor fish were being dragged through the water with an evil barbed hook in their mouth and then having their cold blooded flesh scalded by being handled by warm blooded men and women.
We must ban this evil practice as soon as possible. I shall be returning to your area at the end of the month and looking for people who will support a ban on fishing.
