The WPCS must reassert the standards that the members and the public expect from a breed society. The repeated turning a blind eye to poor breeding practices and appalling welfare issues surrounding certain semi feral herds is unacceptable. We expect the Society to set the example on how to behave and not to endorse by inaction the desperately poor and criminal practices of some members of their group.

Well said.  The WPCS repeatedly asserts that it has no powers of intervention in welfare cases, but it does have the power to alert the relevant welfare authorities, to suspend membership until standards are improved, and to refuse to register stock from studs that do not uphold its values.  Inaction by the WPCS is exactly the same as condoning what goes on.
