D-Day approaching...

Is D Day for Hare Coursing Authority upon us?

I notice that Friday, March 4th, is pencilled in for Judgment Day in the long running case in the Commercial Court involving the Irish Coursing Club and a property developer...The Legal Diary on the Courts.ie website lists the case for this date. Everone concerned about the welfare of animals, and the preservation of Ireland's gentle hare will be keeping fingers crossed and hoping for a good result. Even the athiests among us are praying to God or whoever or whatever might be out there that hare coursing is dealt a ferocious blow in the Commercial Court. If the ICC goes down, the plight of Ireland's persecuted hares will be eased, as there be less money to fork out on prizes at the festivals of cruelty known as "coursing meetings", and the major national hare-baiting venue may have to sold off.

We hope too that the United Left Alliance will take a stand againt live hare coursing and press the government on the issue.
