If you did not see a fox, how can they be fox hunting?

Is it not a little cruel to tear a fox to pieces for the sake of sport? Evening BTW.

Even if the pro choice subject (fox hunting) is not wanted by the majority of the public. I fully agree with your sentiments about silly over legislature that is unworkable and unenforcable.

The media, spin doctors and big business tell the masses what to think. They represent but a few.
As Winston Churchill put it:
"Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those others that have been tried from time to time."
Additionally, should minorities not have a voice?

Important difference.
Often under a Three Line Whip.
As someone once said, if democracy really worked they'd have to ban it.

Is that not the apathy of the public to be so gullible? Perhaps we need to better educate the public.

Something along the lines of anarchical libertarianism.
Well, something without so called "leaders".
