What do LabourHome folk feel about the Hunting Act?

Re: Hunting Act (#1)

The Act does what it says it does: it bans the use of hounds to chase live animals and to rip them apart. Unnecessary abuse, and for human entertainment.

The real question is: where or how much hunts are obeying the law. Five convictions so far and more cases coming to court in the next few months.

Re: Hunting Act (#6)

Anyone who breaks this law should be prosecuted. And once the police start taking this seriously and more law-breaking hunters go to jail, the more likely it is that they will give up.
