Alliance must learn the rules

I see that the Countryside Alliance has been accused by the League of Cruel Sports of inciting violence towards anti-hunt protesters in its handbook, Hunting without Harrassment. It advises hunts and supporters to physically escort hunt monitors and saboteurs off private land and, if necessary, make a citizen's arrest.

The handbook has been passed and advised by top lawyers.

Does the LACS realise that they should not take photos of children without the parent's consent?

It is a shame that they have nothing better to do with their lives. I take hundreds of photos of hunts out exercising the hounds and don't have any hassle like the hunt protesters do on private ground because I have had permission from the landowner, not like the protesters who just walk on any ground without permission.
