Prince William went on a deer and wild boar hunting trip in Spain a day before he launched a high-profile appeal to stop the illegal hunting of wildlife, it has emerged.
There is no suggestion the hunting trip was in any way illegal, but critics have suggested that the timing of the holiday was poor, coming before an appeal close to the prince's heart.
Time for a republic?

Any royal involved in an animal charity is like giving a paedo a job in a nursery

My take on this, yes it wasn't the best move by him, bit silly really. Was bound to cause controversy.
Do you only buy free range eggs Andy ?
Do you eat meat ?
-
Yes to both. Eat a lot of veggie meals and ought to eat more but a lot of it contains mushrooms which I am intolerant to.
-
So you eat meat that people produce or culture for eating.
Some land owners breed pheasants ,for shooting and eating.
What's the difference ?
-
The difference is he's a typical politician. It's sound bites rather than ethics
-
I have more of an issue with people who hunt solely for sport or those who kill elephants for ivory or rhino for horn. As for shooting birds, what happens to the ones that are not killed instantly and die a lingering painful death?
Jon, that's the sort of remark I expect from "the other place", what's politics got to do with it? I have been opposed to hunting many years longer than I have been interested in party politics.
-
Opposed to hunting but still prepared to eat meat kept solely for the purpose. Same as the ukip Renault joke. No debate on taffy one I notice?

On what?
