Hunting Bill

[juliet]

Just back from holiday, which was fun - update to follow.

In the meantime: the Hunting Bill has finally been reintroduced to the Commons, & the debate is on Wednesday 15th. Please email your MP to ask them to be present on Wednesday to vote in favour of the Bill and against any delay in implementation. Further details on the League website at that link.

NB I am really not terribly interested in any debate on here as to whether hunting should be banned or not. I believe, very strongly, that it should - if you agree with me, *please* email your MP. Even if you know they're pro-ban, it's still vital that you email them to make sure they attend the debate on Wednesday.

Excellent. With a bit of luck the Lords will then throw it back at the Commons, wasting more Parliamentary time and pushing far, far more insidious Bills like the odious Blunkett's ID Card Bill further down the order.

Blunkett's great. According to the Sunday Telegraph (yes, I know, the Tory Party on crack) he's planning to enforce the hunt ban by putting CCTV in trees! He's rock hard.
