It's time for a good shakeup and a proper spring cleaning!

Five animal rights activists, who intimidated companies linked to Huntingdon Life Sciences in an attempt to close down their animal testing lab, were, today and rightly so, sentenced up to six years in prison.

The Crown Court heard the horrific tales of intimidation and the intense psychological war they waged against a number of supply companies to force their closure.

It is this type of deluded righteousness and bullying that gives the ‘anti something or another campaigners’ a bad name, and tags them with violence, thus making it difficult to objectively listen to the coherent ones and almost impossible for many law obeying citizens to sympathize with any of them.

And unless that negative tag is removed and the extremist groups and members are openly shunned and segregated from the genuine activist, the innocent, will unfortunately continue to be tarred by the same brush.

Nevertheless, today’s sentencing is prove, that there is no room for extremism in Britain!
