In my opinion the countryside should be left to those best qualified to manage it, not the minority of people who live in the urban sprawls and the do-gooders in Parliament (who appear to know nothing of countryside management). The only people this pleases is the anti hunt organisations that are minuscule in comparison to the population in the rural areas.



This government will be making a grave mistake in implementing this ban as it will open the floodgates for other forms of country sports being targeted by the so called anti brigade such as rough shooting, managed shoots, Angling and pest control.



I would like to see how this Government would try and implement this ban, most dogs, whether pets or hunters, have a natural instinct to hunt when in the countryside, does this mean we will have a nation of dog owners with fat, obese animals because they won’t be allowed to exercise them properly in open areas?



I think this will be a vote loser for Blair and his Cronies who should be directing their energies into sorting out issues closer to home such as the NHS, poverty and not using Hunting as smoke screen every time they want to distract the public.



It’s about time the MP’s started earning their wages and stop dealing with trivia, get on with the job of sorting the welfare of the Human beings of the UK and not the welfare of vermin.
