They've wanted to do this since 2010 really.
It was tucked away in the 2015 manifesto, however an only 12 overall majority would not ensure success as there are Con MPs still opposed.

The point is the foxhunting lobby in the main support the Conservatives,they wouldnt get this from any other respectable political party.

She like Cameron before her,don't think voters will care enough to make it an issue that will decide their way of voting.
They believe foxes don't come high on most voters agendas.

So when she gets that bigger majority that voters appear to be heading to give her,that will mean,under a subtle freevote, she will be ensured victory to bring it back.

Satisfying that bloodthirsty foxhunting huntsmen/women element that donate to and support the Cons,plus the fact Mrs May is a very strong supporter of this barbaric hunting with packs of hounds.
That is what matters to Mrs May and those in the Cons who have always wanted this made legal again.

She really doesn't believe,and is not in my view likely to take notice of any opposition either,that any or many voters will really not vote Con,because of foxhunting.

Polls state probably 84% of respondents are against foxhunting,if she can even ignore that, really that says all about her own warped,in my view, fixed thinking on the issue
