For those of you who remember Piers Morgan on your TV screens in the USA, we have re-imported hi and he now has a slot on ITV 'Good Morning Britain'. Last week I was invited to discuss the merits of hunting as part of a conservation plan, following on from comments made by Prince William supporting hunting. You can see the six minute interview here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xyQ5-Zjrl84 if you are interested. You can also see it by typing Hadoke Piers Morgan into Google and you should get a youtube clip of the full interview. Very best regards to all, Diggory Hadoke

Very good interview. It always amazes me how easy it is for people like Morgan to deny the science of Conservation and Management and replace it with a strictly unscientific emotion-based belief. Hunting in America is also under assault, event though hunters have traditionally paid for the game conservation through taxes, a program that goes back to TR. The only reason we have so much game is that hunters have paid for it, but anti-hunters never seem to understand that. It's part of the "Captain Planet" syndrome, where Mankind is portrayed as the "Rapist of the Planet", and should be prohibited from interaction with the Natrual Earth". A preposterous, but typical Leftist view.

Piers is not so thrilled with rich Americans either.
So many guns, so little time!

Diggory: Excellent job standing up to him and making reasoned points. They should give the show to the lady and fire Piers.

Poor Lorain is no better informed, but gets the last word. Typical rude interjection from an unsupportable argument. Piers knows he has no hope of winning any other way. That, I am afraid is all he knows. Tabloid language = severed heads. Sensation speak. I hope that you washed your hand Dig. O.M

It would have been great if the interviewers would shut up long enough for a reasonable response to be made. You showed great poise. Good job!
Dodging lions and wasting time.....
