    you'll find she's in favour off a lot of things with the election coming up fast.
    got to get those pesky UKIP voters back into the Tory ranks.

    A Tory in favour of rich yahoos being allowed to ride around the countryside brutally killing animals while dressed up as a ploughman's lunch and having a jolly good time. There's a shocker.

    Fox hunting is a disgusting practice.

    Trying to find extra funding for her campaign?

    fox hunting, * barbaric practice...the * would probably bring in some sort of purge type set up if they could.

    That was my initial thought. Can't be that many votes in it I wouldn't have thought.

    I would love to see a Fox try to hunt a cow. Cow would be like, * off straw baws, before sticking the nut on it.

    Seriously though, I would love to see a Fox hunting Theresa May. That is one cow where I would be rooting for the Fox.

    It makes her look regressive and will likely alienate many who flirted with the idea of voting Tory.

    Big no no for me. She should concentrate on issues that matter, not trying to repeal a bill that stops the killing of defenceless animals.

    You beat me to it!

    And I agree with pretty much everyone - fox hunting is a horrible practice. I get the need for pest control but getting a kick out of chasing animals and watching them get ripped apart is messed up.

    It's a class thing, people don't give a * about a manky fox, it's just a chance to have a go at some upper class twats.

    Quite surprised at this. From a political standpoint I can't imagine opposing fox hunting would lose her many supporters (where else would they go?) but supporting it will certainly damage her support numbers, even if it's not significantly.

    From a moral standpoint it's horrific. We're rightly quick to condemn dog fighting, bull fighting and the like but seem ok with a more upper class version of these barbaric blood sports in fox hunting. I genuinely don't think I could bring myself to vote for someone who supports this practice irrespective of their other policies. I don't really see it as being that different from just torturing stray dogs for the * of it.
