Interesting reading.

This paragraph is a nugget of pure common sense:

"There is no difficulty in constructing a sensible compromise. We could strengthen the laws that outlaw unnecessary animal cruelty, and force hunting to justify itself in relation to them. The Lords would approve it, the hunters would have to put up with it, most people would find it satisfactory, and a small advance for civilisation would have been made. "

It will be fascinating to follow this up on the Guardian letters page in the coming days...

I have just emailed Tony Wright (wrightt@parliament.uk) to commend him on his common sense. :b
