Oh gosh yes I forgot them blowing the horns too.
They make you feel physically sick.

It's going.to be done if she wins on June 8th,that's certain and it will get passed
The foxhunting lobby are strong supporters of the Conservatives.

She will for sure stick to this for them and their donations.
Plus of course the fact she strongly supports this barbaric form of hunting herself too.

Well I wont be voting Joey,there is no need in this day and age to use cruelty to animals as a sport,plus they look ridiculous,i don't even like horse racing tbh,anything using animals is not sport in my book,so she has just lost a voter and I am sure there are many more like me,she needs to be careful.

I don't think the majority of Tory voters would really care much if they brought back the hunt. Though they'd probably get more votes for it if they suggested hunting immigrants and the disabled instead of foxes.

I've always felt strongly about this as I said earlier after seeing the end of a hunt as a child.
The memory haunts me still.

No matter what Party it was,I could never support it if it had this awful plan to bring this back.
I just cannot understand the thinking of people who support it.

To use power to bring it back is even less understandable to me.
I just hate all it is and I look with contempt as to those who take part in or support it.

Not quite sure who May is trying to attract with this since 84% of the British public are against fox hunting. It's simply a barbaric sport which belongs in the past.

[Cal.]

Ugh what an old skank.

[Jake.]

Of course she would. She's honestly a ****ing disgrace

There must be humane ways of controling the fox population.I'm sure there is.Fox hunting is just cruelty.

[jaxie]

Fox hunting is cruel. I will lobbying my local Tory MP about it.

[Kizzy]

Everything they do is cruel, I can't think of one policy that isn't. They are the nasty party.

In roman times slaves would of been fed to lion's and made to fight to the death.
A fox does what it does to survive a human does what it does for a entertainment.

The tories are self harming with this vote and running around like a headless chicken, problem is Corbin ain't got the teeth for the job.

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

My thoughts too. I know plenty of Tories - country people - who would be horrified at the prospect of a return to hunting with dogs.

[Niamh.]

Jeez, bring it back? It really feels like politics and world is going backwards in time these days
