How much??

Fox-hunting yet again.  I am an occasional contributor to the RSPCA - or perhaps that should be "have been", for I am appalled that the Society should have spent some £300,000 on the prosecution of a hunt for breaking the law.  Whether the defendants were guilty or not is to my mind immaterial (where was the DPP?  It's his job to prosecute law-breakers).  Surely the job of the Society is to spend its money wisely over the whole field of cruelty to animals.  This smacks very much of macho political posturing - was it just coincidence that this was the Prime Minister's local hunt?  I don't think I shall be putting any more money into their envelopes.
