I'd have looked for more than 5 years.
However certainly a step in the right direction. For me, causing suffering to animals or wilfully killing them is the same as doing so to other humans. |

It's about time cruelty to animals was taken more seriously. Like I always say when these kinds of threads arise, animal wardens in the USA are trained to look for signs of child abuse because there is often a connection between animal and child cruelty.

The for me despicable, Kate Hoey, of Labour certainly supports it.
How any Labour voters vote for her is beyond me, I wouldn't. The Conservatives however are the only Party that wanted to bring it back, and had Theresa May or David Cameron gained big majorities. They'd have presented legislation to do so too. After Labour made it illegal after coming to power in 1997. |

Dominic Raab is a patron. I think everyone would be surprised to learn how many Tories don't want hunting reintroduced. It's barbaric and has no place in the 21st century. I understand that foxes have to be controlled. I don't think the best way to do that is to chase an animal until it's terrified and exhausted and then have a pack of dogs rip it apart. If they have to control numbers, employ a marksman. |

All slaughter is cruel, you should just admit that instead of acting like the meat you eat died a lovely peaceful death

They should be replaced with more ethical methods.
No-one's saying that. We eat meat. No need to include ritualistic torture in the process. |
