Total support for finally ending the use of animals on the streets. Electric carriages are the way to go. To facilitate this change the council should buy all the horses at a fair market price, then make sure they go to good homes or a decent retirement location. They should offer free charging points for the electric carriages as an extra incentive. It appears that this trade is controlled by the gypsies. Make it worth their while and they will change . Appeal to their sense of what is right and you will get nowhere.
Why is it so difficult to do the right thing and stop this once and for all. Everyone wants it gone.
