(Content Warning // No blood, just fucking awful)
A hunt supporter deliberately runs down a hunt sab.

Supporting footage shows the driver (who was under no duress) take off at speed and aim directly for the sabs. The driver is the owner and host of the Ladywood Estate wedding venue and had was a child in the front seat at the time.

Sab has been released from hospital, very lucky to have come away from that without broken bones (or worst!) but she's left in a state of shock.

The hunt community has, rather typically, responded with laughter and derision.

On this day, in 1970, Chile's Salvador Allende became the world's first-ever democratically elected Marxist president.

Against the west and his own right-wing-controlled congress, in just his first year in office, Allende:

- Nationalized copper, carbon, iron, saltpeter and steel.
- GDP grew by 2.7%. The industrial sector grew 12%, the mining sector 10% and the agricultural sector 5%.
- Lowered unemployment from 8.3% to 4.8%.
- Reforested 60.000 hectares of land.
- Expropriated 90% of Chile’s private banking (16 banks).
- Created a social security system for low-income workers and housewives.
- Expropriated, requisitioned or nationalized more than 70 monopolies and strategic companies.
- Fixed prices of rent and mortgages to end speculation.
- Made hospital tests and medicines free for all.
- Reduced medicines prices drastically by lowering their taxes.
- Set the universal retirement age to 60 years old.
- And much more.
