PIPPA Middleton's participation in a boar hunt in France will have no implications this side of the channel.

That is according to Scott Passmore, founder of the UK Wild Boar Trust in the Forest of Dean.

He believes the actions of the Duchess of Cambridge's sister, who travelled to Gerpinnes for the event, will go unnoticed by many. He said: "There have been a few high profile examples of late, what with David Cameron and the Heythrop hunt, but I'm not sure if Pippa Middleton is high profile enough for her actions to have an effect."

    “Lordigaga, boar hunting in Europe is not the preserve of the upper classes. In Poland, Hungary, Germany etc many people shoot WILD boar regardless of their social background.
    Hunting for pleasure could be described as cruel, but if you eat your kill then it isn't.
    How does it differ from eating pork from a super market? The recent 'horseburgergate' scandal proves that you have no idea what you are scoffing even if the food comes from a reputable source- if you shoot it in a forest in Poland then you certainly do.
    The French didn't get rid of the upper classes, they merely murdered thousands of aristocrats, thousands of middle class and thousands of peasants... then topped it off by the leaders of the 'revolution' installing themselves as the new aristocrats.
    Pippa Middleton is not really 'upper class' anyhow, even if she or you think she is.
    Still, never mind the fact eh? You can't beat a good bit of outrage can you?
    Viva la revolution!”

    “it should have an effect, it shows how cruel the upper class people are, the French had the right idea, lets get rid of them all”
