Can I remind members that if one of the team asks you to stay on topic it doesn't mean that you can comment and then go back on topic.

One post deleted, next time it may be an infraction

Indeed every hunt was different and it was an evolving process for both sides when i used to get involved. It cannot be much different these days other than i hear it can be more violent between those for and against if they get too close to each other :(

Then get off your backside and go and help the people at each hunt that try to stop them.

Did i say trespass, i don't think so. Also the amount of hunts that go tally hooing across land they don't have permission to hunt on is ok then is it. Trust me there are farmers who dont want hunts on there land and the hunt heavies ether threatens him or the hunt just crosses it anyway.??? ;) :D

So is hunting foxes legal now ???

My understanding is that hunting foxes with dogs is still legal. Killing them with dogs is not.

How else do they stop them without going on the land the hunt has permission to be on and yes hunting foxes is legal, never has not been so.

Very fine line on the law . I have not seen a hunt where the fox if cornered is not ripped apart by the dogs.

The magistrate or the judge are probably members of the hunt anyway so any case before them will always swing in favour of the hunt, just like the magistrate i faced when i broke the nose of a **** who attacked me with his riding crop. The punishment was well worth the knowledge that his nose would be bent for the rest of his life :LOL:

it's an age old british tradition

bring it back!


upwards of 750,000 animals get slaughtered in the UK each day that no one wants to think about and then tuck into meat dishes - it's all bar code stuff in the supermarket


its like the mentality in the Vietnam war


"cut them in half with a machine gun and then give them a band aid"


interestingly germany's national socialist party was the first European party to ban the practice largely associacted with toffery

slightly off topic but they also banned the gotterdamerung component of Wagners ring cycle


As it implied a fall of the Reich
