Heard through the grapevine the Back bench Tories are pushing the front bench regarding trying to get it legal again, thoughts?

Good question, I believe there have been 2 or 3 at the very most prosecutions, so in reality it probably never stopped, that said it is still illegal lol.Not sure it will make a difference. Did the practice actually ever stop ?

So if hunting with dogs is re-legalised then why not badger or bear baiting? Dog and cock fighting?
They're all equally as abhorrent to me but there's very little difference in them. In all examples an animal ends up being ripped apart.
As far as I'm aware hunting an animal with dogs is illegal so I'm not sure what you mean by that but the second part of your post is ridiculousThe key question here is why didn't Tony Blair ban it all together.............
and countless foxes die every day, through road accidents...... should we ban all vehicles from the road....
I don't really have a problem with you hunting with a gun Damian and as far as I'm aware that isn't illegal. I'm guessing you're a good enough shot to get a clean kill with a minimum of suffering for the animal. One second it's awake, aware and enjoying it's life, the next second it isn't.My last post was made in jest Trev, I don't really want to see it legalised.
We have to be careful though as often pressure groups will use bans like this to press forward with other forms of hunting. A clear distinction has to be made between cruelty to animals and hunting for purpose.
I very much want to retain my right to shoot and eat rabbit and pigeon without fear of getting my head kicked in by a bunch of balaclava wearing thugs masquerading as animal rights activists!
that reminds me of the anti-whalers.My last post was made in jest Trev, I don't really want to see it legalised.
