Modern politicians often make use of this ancient technique to hammer home a point. The repetition can have a empathic, powerful, confident, effect.
Tony Blair used it in his 'Education, education, education? speech, Julius Caesar used it in 'I came, I saw, I conquered', and Winston Churchill rallied the country with '...We shall fight them on the beaches, we shall fight on the ladning grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills...'
"Foxhunting is cruel, it is barbaric and it encourages mindless bloodlust.
Foxes are the victims of this mindless 'sport', their cubs are the victims of this thuggish 'sport', and the countryside, its people, its fields and its wildlife, the countryside, as a whole, is the true victim of this thuggish, mindless, and murderous 'sport'."
