Is this the end of the Huntin', Shootin' and Fishin' Party?

In news that will bring sorrow to many, the leader of Chasse Pêche Nature Traditions, Frédéric Nihous, is in discussion with Sarko's lot about folding itself into the Gaullist UMP:

"CPNT is ready to become a partner of the UMP on the basis of a win / win deal. We will not be going to Canossa".

Current sticking points include the opening date for the waterfowl season and forestry in the south west. A rather more interesting set of ideological problems than those posed by most party mergers.

Given that CNPT aimed to serve chasseurs of left and right, I am hoping that there will be a split and a continuity CNPT of a reddish hue will arise.

Julia, not for the first time, has nailed it. A left wing field sports party would be royally amusing, wouldn't it?
