He will do it this time if he got an overall majority and if he succeeded,especially with the media backing him on it too,which most of them would, there would be cries of outrage at it being done by even those who will have supported him.

For me, the very sad fact is that he has this even in mind.which says a lot more about him again too and how he will easily cave in to pressure from the more 'elite' sources.

Oscar Wilde I believe said as to foxhunting,'it was the unspeakable in pursuit of the uneatable'
For me it should be an unspeakable policy from anyone,never mind have a Prime Minister that would want to even try to make it legal again.

As I said ages ago, as a child I saw a fox hunted down by the hounds and once exhausted it just had to stop and wait to be torn to pieces alive,then these toby jugs on horseback laughing and drinking, celebrating the barabaric event afterwards,made me really physically sick.
I actually think he could swing a vote behind it this time in parliament if he had an overall majority.
It isn't something he ever seems to want to abandon for sure.
Even if he does hold a vote on it I can't see it passing though, not enough Tory MPs will support it I don't think even if they have a majority. It's not really a new thing from Cameron though - he's always been a big supporter of the traditional rural lifestyle and countryside groups however incomprehensible they are to a lot of people.
