I have stated my case that this was not a ban to save the poor fox, it was just an affront by the so called working class Labour party (which they are far from being) against the assumed rich country toffs.

That's just your opinion ,but whatever the reason for the ban it is a good thing.

And if fox hunting is banned, there are many other bloodsports and forms of hunting that should be banned also, but aren't. It's not equitable.

Yes it is .All hunting with dogs is banned ,including mink ,hares, deer and anything else you can think of .

I think you'll find a lot of the "city idiots" are much more informed than you give them credit for .

I eat fish line caught, trawled and farmed - First two of which are not a nice way for fish to end its life and the last not a nice way for fish to live, But neither do I campaign against that.

That's just an ignorant statement to make .Everything you just mentioned is food ,when was the last time you had a bit of fried fox
.Hunting is meant to be a means of getting food as in fishing or deer stalking .Hunting is not leaving the prey in a field to rot after dogs have ripped it apart ,that is just mans abuse of animals
