Fox hunting

[banannabreadforme]

Yesterday Theresa May stated she wanted to hold a vote to overturn the ban on fox hunting. What?! Surely this is out of date animal torture? Doesn't she have more important things to do? She has hugely gone down in my opinion now. What are your thoughts on her plans on this matter?

I am shocked this hasn't been more widely reported, not a sniff on the bbc. utterly disgusting and it tells you all you need to know about the tories.

Doesn't matter what you think about foxes no civilised society needs to chase them around on a horse just to kill them. Plus, it has nothing to do with pest control as the foxes are bred to be hunted.

Wankers.

Dame. Can you give more details and evidence please.

" Plus, it has nothing to do with pest control as the foxes are bred to be hunted."

I am in fox hunting country and I know that it goes on, I know someone who used to do it. Do you think it's a good way to control foxes?

Totally agree OP. Of course this is just what the Tories were going to do straight after the last election too and they backed out of that when Nicola Sturgeon stepped in.

Bugger all to do with Sturgeon fox hunting in Scotland is devolved.

So no real proof of fixes being bred to hunt then mmmmm

If its about saving the foxes do you approve of councils poisoning urban foxes?

Quite a long thread about it here;
