Please Act Now - General Election 2024

- Start date
This begs the obvious question , why the heck spend time posting on a forum about stalking ?
Funny enough I wrote to my local MP and got an automatic email reply saying that parliament was closed but my email may get read?? Whats that all about?
Hope they put more effort in than that or my vote will be going elsewhere. Trouble is, who is standing up for shooting and the country way of life?

A non contactable candidate? That alone would be enough to strike them off my list of potentials to vote for.Well what a waste of time. Went through your page only to find that none of the candidates in my constituency are contactable. Well done BASC

Whether we are a minority or not, should make no difference in a country that is supposed to be based on freedom of choice and activity within the laws of the land. I for one am fed up with the major parties talking absolute B////cks 99.9% of the time.
There hollow promises mean nothing to me, and many others, I assume. The conservatives have done nothing for the countryside and shooting communities. Labour will never do anything to support us, and would probably ban shooting given half the chance.
I didn't vote for anyone last time, Boris the buffon and complete half wit, stuck up ponce was always a liar, and continues to be so. Therefore my vote this time is for reform.

Then why do you remain on here then?
We get it that you are not interested in stalking deer anymore. However you do put a smirk on my face when you claim to have stalked for SOOOOOOOO long. 20 odd years?
Christ I was taking deer when you were still in nappies. We get it that your packing in, the whole bloody world knows it. So can we just leave it now, PLEASE.

I think the judicial hammer of banning is required....
The ReformUK manifesto is a very clear undertaking to restore a type of democratic governance that makes sense to most of us. In particular, the emphasis on productive farming and rural life. Excerpts:
Scrap Net Zero and Related Subsidies.
The UK cost of Net Zero has been estimated by the National Grid and others at some £2
trillion or more. It is so big that no one really knows. The public sector is spending billions
each year with no accountability or transparency. Ditching Net Zero would save the public
sector some £20 billion per year for the next 25 years, possibly more.
Hate Crime
The CPS and police definition of a hate crime has led to systemic bias. Members of the
British public must not be investigated because ‘any’ person ‘perceives’ that a hate crime
has been committed. Proper evidence must be required.
Instigate “Veterans First” priority Status.
For healthcare, housing, training and education, together with support for dependents.
Scrap climate-related farming subsidies.
Productive land must be farmed, not be used for solar farms or rewilding. Replace current subsidies with direct payments. Stop Natural England from taking action that damages farmers.
Future technology & fertiliser supplies.
Farmers must have access to new technology to boost production and cut costs. UK food security also depends on fertiliser supply and production.
Encourage young people into farming.
Offer subsidised courses at Agricultural Colleges and apprenticeships to help young people learn farming ‘craft’ and business management.
Excess Deaths and Vaccine Harms Public Inquiry.
Excess deaths are nearly as high as they were during the Covid pandemic. Young people are overrepresented.

Im sure you really do know your stuff Lee - more than i ever will for sure - but share it with people on here and just stop being daft with stuff - we have enough of that in everyday life dont we ?
Fair enough, but our local currently serving MP is standing again and being very 'vocal ' about it on social media, however they don't appear on the list of candidates??

Nominations close on Friday 7th June after which all candidate details should be available on the BASC website but feel free meanwhile to get in touch directly with your MP asking if they will support BASC manifesto and forward any reply to politics@basc.org.uk
Conor do you guys have a template for a letter - or is it sort of as simple as ....... please advise if you support .... and please can you confirm you support this ....
I know my candidates so can easily send them this but other people may be a little unsure

When you put in your constituency name into the box on the BASC general election campaign webpage a template text will come up which you can adapt as need be and then click send to email candidates currently available to contact:
The template text is:
I am emailing you as a general election candidate for my constituency to ask for your views on sustainable shooting and conservation.
Shooting and conservation play a key role in the economy and management of the countryside. The Value of Shooting Report 2024 shows that:
• Shooting supports the equivalent of 67,000 full time jobs.
• Shooting is worth £3.3 billion to the economy (GVA).
• Shooting generates £9.3 billion of wider economic activity.
• Habitat management and conservation work is carried out on 18.87 million acres as a result of shooting.
• 620,000 people are actively involved in shooting related activities.
• Those involved in shooting provide 14 million conservation workdays, the equivalent of 26,000 full time conservation jobs.
For further information on the benefits of shooting please visit: Capturing the economic, environmental and social value of shooting in the UK - The Value of Shooting
Given this, I would be grateful if you could approve our manifesto: BASC election manifesto 2024
You can do this by emailing me your approval.
I will be informing BASC of your reply. They represent 150,000 members and will be letting them and others know where candidates stand.
Thank you in advance for replying to my email.
