have seen the carnage that a fox can cause to livestock and the time and money that is wasted by their actions.fox hunting just for the sake of it is wrong but humane trapping and eradication is sometimes necessary if you are to have any measure of control,i am not pro or anti foxhunting just trying to use some common sense to see the farmers point of view.

Don't give a damn whether a fox meets its demise at the hands of a yahoo on horseback or, as happens round here, under the wheels of a bus, it's still dead either way. What I did object to was the amount of parliamentary time was wasted discussing the matter, like our country's in such great shape we can afford to spend weeks debating foxhunting!!

Actually I am not sure that fox hunting is cruel and in the wild foxes would be hunted by packs of dogs. Having said that I don't understand how anyone could enjoy indulging in an exercise that ends in the death of such a beautiful animal.

I think it should be reinstated.
The people in the town nearest to where I live are being ravaged by, what is now termed, the urban fox. It is ripping open refuse bags and strewing garbage all over the street.
Now the council are employing foxkillers to irradicate the problem and to pay for these guys they are putting up the council tax. (another government con trick).

do in basic terms not get me all started i do no longer hunt yet i comprehend an excellent style of those who do. i comprehend the effect the ban has had on rural organization etc and that i comprehend the strategies that there are of having round it. i comprehend what the farmers imagine of it and that i comprehend what the "townies" imagine. that is one section the position me and OH have agreed to variety - he might want to save each and everything ( and be conscious us all overrun) he might want to pass veggie if the alternative meant easily killing something - me, on the different hand....... there is no excuse for harming the horses or dogs, no excuse for threatening human beings or causing damage to resources. regardless of they imagine of what is going on there is no excuse. that is thuggery disguised as an ethical marketing campaign. this isn't Basil Brush we are speaking about - that is a organic born predator which will kill for the relaxing of doing it. edit> Blair become currying favour and brown-nosing for votes at the same time as he banned it. It had no longer something by any skill to do with animal welfare - it become all about attempting to instruct the operating type those that he might want to p.c.. on the moneyed ones. organic political BS.

I am against it....Have no use for it whatsoever. Only very stupid people enjoy hunting with a pack of hounds only to watch the fox being torn apart> Wonder if they would ebnjoy being hunted by a fox pack only to be ripped apart at the end.

Don't really agree with the actual chase/hunt but then don't really agree with the ban either. Especially as it was done on the back of a 'Class' issue by the current lefties.

I'm against it, you would have to a lot of work that tearing up the countryside, chasing a fox with a pack of dogs and men on horses is sporting.
