How about snaring them, nothing inhumane about gnawing your own foot of or slowly being strangled to death.

Your cat population might be even larger without the foxes.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Hardly humane snaring is as bad as shooting I'm no fan of the social side that went with hunting but it did have a practical benefit.

That just leaves setting your eagle owl on them then, doesn't sound massively humane either does it (btw there was a heavy hint of sarcasm in my last post, gnawing your own foot of because it's caught in a snare is truly horrific, as is a slow lingering death riddled with pellets)

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Another child attacked
"I felt sick, I had phoned RSPCA twice. It killed a cat the night before.
"If it was a dog, that dog would be put down. I don't see no difference in a fox, OK it's wildlife.
"It's attacked a child and they're still not taking it."

And still morons feed them...

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Jeremy Hunt is going to repeal the ban if he can get a majority he claims, I doubt he'll get that majority but it's outrageous more time in parliament is going ti be wasted on this

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
The ban was only introduced because of over £1m in donations to Labour from the Political Animal Lobby.

The Labour Party has come under further attack after admitting receiving an extra payment from an anti-hunting group.

The party said the Political Animal Lobby (PAL), which made a £1m donation to Labour before the general election in 1997, donated an additional £100,000 last year.

Cash for Answers and not the only case.
A lot of Parliamentary time was wasted on it.
There was a case, where before the ban, a local hunt stopped hunting in a certain area after a request by the RSPB. The result was that the fox population increased dramatically and decimated the nesting birds on the coastal area.

Soya has to be imported and so should have a "green" tax applied to it. It's not environmentally friendly shipping it across the Atlantic.

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Making socks compulsory for anyone who dares to wear sandals? I'd vote for that and so would the Tory faithful

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
I'd simply tax socks. But our climate isn't suited to sandals or barefoot through the year - most uncivilised.

Pure unadulterated populism*. He knows that the majority of the country is against the repeal of the current ban on fox hunting.
*in this case, a corrupted form of populism where the "populace" is small in number and have very strange views ..
