Untenable promises

Seemingly undecided whether to simply address the issue of hunting illegalities or to end spring hunting and amend animal welfare legislation to also apply to hunting, since, according to Alternattiva Demokratika (AD), “it amounts to another form of animal cruelty”. AD in a bid to lure votes from what it perceives to be a potentially large anti-hunting lobby has included all these issues as part of a definite anti hunting stand in its electoral manifesto.  

 Unlike other political parties AD are definitely not trying to please the hunting lobby with untenable promises. As a matter of fact after many years they are still aspiring to please someone since considering their track record in the political field all their promises are untenable and all have been nothing but dreams.
