Letter: Repealing fox hunting ban would be wrong

I note the Countryside Alliance is trying to get the law against fox hunting reversed, reasoning that it is a difficult law to maintain as there have been few prosecutions.

I note the Countryside Alliance is trying to get the law against fox hunting reversed, reasoning that it is a difficult law to maintain as there have been few prosecutions.

So are we to understand that any law that proves difficult to maintain is simply remedied by making it legal?

Let's face it, the tally ho set ride rough shod over this law and through the simple act of releasing hounds they are creating an opportunity for law breaking.

We can't change laws just because it doesn't suit a minority of the population.
