VOTE ON FOX HUNTING

Motion Text

That this House notes the settled view of the country and of hon. Members that the tormenting and killing of defenceless animals for fun is not acceptable; believes it was an act of cowardice by the Government to deny a democratic vote on fox hunting, just because the "nasty party", which is in favour of blood sports, has become too nasty even for many of its own hon. Members; and looks forward to an early opportunity to debate this barbaric and uncivilised practice.
