Funnily enough they kinda do just that, it's the pack leader that delivers the kill

Actually, I wasn't talking specifically about hunting in that post, more culling in general. I do accept that we do need to control the fox population.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Hmm I dont think Doug should be encouraged by this interview...
David Cameron described himself yesterday as a "country boy" who loved hunting and shooting, hinting that if he was elected Prime Minister the ban on fox hunting would come to an end.
But opponents of hunting seized on the somewhat nonchalant way in which the Tory leader answered questions as a sign that he knows public opinion is against bringing back hunting and other blood sports, which were banned in 2004.
Mr Cameron stressed five times over in an interview lasting only a couple of minutes that MPs would get a free vote on the issue, and speculated that some Tories would vote against bringing back hunting.
Douglas Batchelor, chief executive of the League Against Cruel Sports, said: "The tone of his interview was much more nonchalant than it was a year ago. We're very encouraged by this. They are trying to make it a non-issue."

There wont be as many prejudiced Labour back benchers this time I'd imagine and it didn't get passed by much IIRC + Dave's position is seeminly backed up by the governments attempts to get compromise amendments added and the fact the Parliment Act had to be used to force it through The Lords.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Has anybody here been fox hunting or just read stuff ?
I really wouldnt believe most the stuff the anti blood sports lobby come up with.
A bit off topic but simlar, I drive a 4x4 and like to go green laning, the anti 4x4 lobby say we leave 3ft deep rutts on the lanes, mmmmm I would need tyres 7ft tall to do that as the axle sort of gets in the way.
As for foxes killing chickens, did you know a fox can bite through wire mesh and dig very fast? once it is in it will kill every chicken it can catch and maybe take one home.
People can lose 50,60,70+ in one night to a fox.
If the same happened to your animals would you want revenge?
E.G If a local dog was breaking into childrens rabbit hutches and killing them all over the estate then one of two things would happen (legally) the dog would be destroyed or the owner fined and made to confine the dog.
The first one would be mine.
Seeing that foxes are wild then the only option is to hunt them and kill them.
If people think hounds are bad they should see just one fox in action.

Of course not, if Cameron wins this "free vote" it will be dominated by prejudiced shire tory MP's instead.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Why - have they increased the number of shire MPs?
btw, this may cause some confusion amongst the black/white/no shades of gray amongst us...

Conservatives Against Fox Hunting
If the Conservatives win the General Election and there is a free vote on repeal of the Hunting Act we want all Conservative MPs to take the correct moral stance and VOTE TO KEEP THE HUNTING ACT
There are more Conservative supporters than there are Labour supporters who oppose a repeal of the Hunting Act

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Nice link
I sit on the more 'Conservative' side of the fence but see no need for repeal of the Act. Contrary to apparently popular belief some people who want smaller government and lower taxes don't want to spend their weekends on horse back! I'm far happier smacking people with a sabre

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
i wonder if anyone has thought of horse hunting ,i mean what use is a horse ? since the invention of the engine there pretty redundant in the uk ,they could be chased across country by a pack of chavdogs followed by towns folk in Isuzu troopers ,blowing trumpets and shouting tally ho ,then at the end of the hunt after a glorious but grisly death there's a BBQ -HORSE RIBS N BURGERS,no wast unlike fox hunting ,and all the leftovers go to the glue factory .
