Conservatives Against Fox Hunting Breakfast Briefing Fringe Event At The Conservative Conference In Birmingham, October 2010
Speakers Include Dominic Raab MP, Andrew Rosindell MP and Douglas Batchelor, Chief Executive Of The League Against Cruel Sports. We will be discussing the New Hunting Report; ‘Hunting with dogs: Past, Present but No Future
The report includes a great deal of recent research, together with detail on the impact of the Hunting Act on farming, wildlife populations, predation, and agriculture. It also includes up to date information on the current level of convictions under the Act.
The Foreword to the report has been provided by Geoffrey Scarre, Professor of Philosphy at Durham University and an acclaimed expert on the liberal philospher John Stuart Mill. Proff Scarre’s excellent Foreword brilliantly rebutts the argument that a ban on hunting is an infringement of civil liberties.
