It's one of the slogans currently being used by the CA; an organisation I support wholly in all the efforts they make for the countryside. The point of it is that we can keep hunting, and legally too, & if we show solidarity by continuing to hunt (without breaking the law) we are fighting the ban by showing people that we can, and will, carry on hunting virtually as we were before. The CA does not advocate anyone breaking the law & have produced booklets advising packs how they can continue to hunt within the law. I am not advocating breaking the law atl all; on the contrary, the slogan goes to show that hunting will remain virtually unchanged.

I am sure that you are well aware of the reasons behind the ban being politically motivated rather than any worry over the welfare of the fox. By carrying on almost as normal & within the law in my view we have pretty much won the battle as the majority of people who want hunting banned are the ones who are of the mindset that people who hunt are "arrogant toffs" and who incorrectly make it into a class issue.
