As a poor Notherner.. is it normal for posh, southern types to run around in their partners kimonos bashing foxes to death with baseball bats? #JolyonTheFoxKiller

When I hear about a fox being bludgeoned to death by a QC in a kimono using a baseball bat, why do I assume amyl nitrate laced oranges and masturbation were also involved #JolyonTheFoxKiller

You know things have gone badly wrong with your life when the Sunday Sport thinks you’ve gone too far.

Twatting a fox and then boasting about it on social media is perhaps evidence of an unsound mind. And that's from the people who bring you stories of sex dwarfs shitting on carpets.

Of course, the whole sorry saga needn’t have happened at all.
Just read thread. Grim. Anyone keeping chickens should ensure the fencing is strong enough to keep the chickens safe and the foxes unable to get entangled. If you keep fox snacks in your garden the fox has the right to try for a meal. More than you have a right to kill it.

Best-selling author, James Felton, pointed out a certain irony in the report of the incident from one paper.
Adorable! This child is helping packs of dogs tear foxes to fucking shreds!
[literally underneath it with no shred of irony]

All I’m saying is if he’d twatted the fox whilst atop a horse in front of a braying mob of poshos then everything would have been a-ok.

The smart money is on one type of fox-killing activity being legal by the end of 2020, but probably not the kimono and bat method.
