You may remember me telling you back in April that Otis Ferry – the pro-hunt ‘extremist’ son of Roxy Music’s Bryan Ferry – was charged with attacking hunt saboteurs. Well, the fox killer has since landed himself in HMP Gloucester, where he is currently on remand for allegedly perverting the course of justice. And doesn’t he half bang on about it? In a letter to hunt mag, Horse & Hound, he rattles on about his “mind numbingly boring” incarceration and “namby pamby” prison life. But wait for ‘la pièce de la résistance’:

His profound knowledge and respect for animals really shines through here. What a gem. I wonder if his bed is directly below his fellow inmates’ beds, with their excrement trickling through the slats all day? Of course, that’s when he’s not wandering around the yard, just like battery hens do. For all his talk of ‘keeping to the books’, he’s not a very smart fellow, is he?

Let’s play a game! It’s called Spot the Difference, and you can leave comments below with your answers.

The son of Roxy Music’s Bryan Ferry, and notorious pro-hunting stalwart Otis Ferry, has been charged with attacking and robbing two female anti-hunt activists. The hunt saboteurs were filming the fox hunt in Gloucestershire to ensure the hunters weren’t breaking any laws (which prohibit hunting with dogs), when Otis allegedly tried to wrestle the cameras from their hands. The girls were treated for bruises and shock, and another man is reported to have broken a car window and hit one of the activists with a radio antenna he had snapped off the car roof.

Dear oh dear, Otis. Not doing your cause much good, are you? Let the courts decide what to do with him on May 7th when he’ll appear before Cheltenham magistrates. We at PETA believe fox hunting is a vile sport, with dogs or without – see one of our amazing activists below in a previous run-in with Otis on a Burberry catwalk over his choice of associations.
