So much for the ban on fox hunting. Even though the legislation is not due to become law until February, I found out today that the Country side alliance or someone are launching a legal fight to overturn the law. But get this.....they can continue to hunt until the matter is settled (could be 5 years).
Now imagine this, what if an individual launched a legal fight not to recognise the law on say armed robbery. Does this mean that person could continue robbing until the matter was settled? I think not.
This government has bowed under pressure, from a few toffs and upper class ninnies. What messages are you sending Blair.....why bother with laws when the rich and powerful just choose to ignore them anyway??? You muppet

I can't tell you that. If I had all the answers to life, I would be Richard Whitely and therefore would not be talking to you on an Internet forum.
So English bloke
As you agree that it needs regulating...how would you suggest it be done?

It is not irrelevant.....The point I was making is that the new law is a farce, which is just taking up police time and resources.... If they are gunna ban hunting, they should do it completly. But the government knows that they would shoot themselves in the foot,with an election coming up because 70% of the population either agree to it or have no particular view. It is a token gesture.

It's hard to say. Now that we've stuck our size 12 boots in it may indeed need to be regulated. But had we not in the first place I'm sure we would not now be bowing to our mighty fox over-lords. I'm sure nature would have found it's own balence.

Do you suggest that the fox is totally left alone, and that there is no need to regulate its population?

If they didn't bring in so many ridiculous laws such as fining people for dropping cigarette butts or skulking around bushes with their pathetic little laser guns, maybe there'd be more of the boys in blue available to stop barry the butt-rapist bludgeoning sweet old martha outside the bingo hall.

But all this law has done is take the police off the street, where they fight real crime. Because the law is un-enforceable.

English, lass. English.
Anyway, I know that Thumper will indeed have a rabbit-pips moment when chased by the fox, but that is the natural order. The fox kills for sustenance whereas most hunts that I know of don’t then go home and eat the fox.
Look at the wild animals of Africa or some place that has other things then just moles and mice. Do they kill for fun? No they don’t. They kill for food and then when full they sit down and have a chat with their loved ones. Fox-hunting as far as I know is for the tradition and the sport, not to feed ones family.
