Luke Tucker: Too lardy to leg it

Lardy lad Luke Tucker and his Northants Hunt Sabs pulled over by police, and try to leg it
Luke Tucker, ringleader of the Northants Hunt Sabs, was back in the spotlight last Saturday after reports of aggressive behaviour towards locals in Gunby village, Lincolnshire. The notorious group had descended on the area in a bid to disrupt a legal trail hunt by the Cottesmore Hunt, and in typical fashion, things quickly turned ugly. An elderly lady was reportedly nearly knocked over by sabs scrambling to keep up with the hunt.
Police were called, and upon arrival, ordered the group out of their vehicle before apprehending the driver. But in a move that will surprise absolutely nobody familiar with hunt saboteurs, some of the group tried to make a run for it.
We can’t confirm exactly which sabs decided to make a run for it, though we'd be surprised if Tucker was among them. Let's just say he's not exactly built for a sprint.
Our local source describes the gang as "visibly angry," with the situation escalating to the point where police had to call for two additional support vehicles. Tucker was reportedly the person of interest.
Luke Tucker: A Repeat Offender
Tucker can't seem to get enough of meeting the boys in blue.
On Wednesday 18th December 2024, he was slapped with a £1,000 fine at Northampton Magistrates' Court for aggravated trespass while bothering the Pytchley Hunt. He initially entered a plea of 'not guilty' before being found bang to rights - and was hit with a further £2,800 for wasting the time of the Crown Prosecution Service.
That's £3,800 down the drain. But clearly, a fine like that means nothing to someone like Tucker, who continues terrorising local communities with impunity.
The Friendship Circle
Tucker is a stalwart of the virulent Northants Hunt Sabs group, which has at various points welcomed into its ranks some truly colourful characters: vaccine conspiracy theorist Neal Buckoke, death-threat-hurling Marc Shaw, criminal trespasser Agnieszka Grabowicz, and Grand National disrupter Bernadette Green.
Tucker has also been close to ageing sab leader Clive Richardson. However, the two reportedly fell out a few years ago over differing views on sabbing techniques. And let’s not forget Tucker's continued friendship with Mel Broughton, a longtime ringleader of the Northants Sabs who in 2010 was jailed for placing firebomb devices under a portable cabin at Green Templeton College and near a cricket pavilion at Queen’s College in Oxford. The explosion at the cricket pavilion caused an estimated £14,000 worth of damage, though fortunately no one was hurt. Broughton was jailed for ten years for conspiracy to commit arson.
Like birds of a feather.
