Thread Name: BS: Hunting With Dogs. New Legislation? (UK)
Subject: BS: Hunting With Dogs. New Legislation?
I've heard that there's a bill currently going through parliament, which deals with various aspects of civil liberties. If my info is correct, there is a section of this bill, aimed at repealing The Hunting Act 2004, which outlawed hunting with dogs.
If this is true, I regard it as an extremely retrograde step and, quite possibly, a sneaky way of getting the Hunting Act off the statute books.
