UK opposition party Labour has pledged to eliminate fox hunting “within its first term” in power.
Currently, hunting with dogs is illegal in the UK. However, the practice continues under the cover of “trail hunting,” where hounds follow a pre-laid scent.
Reports have shown how, despite the ban, illegal fox hunting continues to have devastating impacts across the UK.
Last year, Scotland introduced new legislation to crack down on illegal fox hunting.
Fine and normal - but I hope they are also planning more foundational policies to address the cost of living crisis.
