IF John Haigh and his hunting pals across the country do not want to abide by the law of the land, jail the lot of them!

If the likes of them have their way they would probably bring back bear-baiting, dog fights and even cock-fighting.

Everything gets banned for a reason; the number one reason being that fox hunting is outdated and barbaric and soon to be outlawed.

It just goes to show what kind of caring people they are.

As soon as the hounds are past their usage (approximately six years) they get a bullet in the head, no retirement home for them.

If these "people" like the chase as they prefer to call it, why do they not do the drag chase?

They still get the thrill of the chase, the only thing they don't get is the horrific killing of the fox.
