Is fox hunting laws a party-political issue?

MPs will vote on changes to the laws on fox hunting in England and Wales on Wednesday, the government has said.

Discussing the issue on Daily Politics, Tom Quinn from the League Against Cruel Sports said changes are "a big ruse" to fool MPs and the public, and would make the law unenforceable.

However, Tim Bonner from the Countryside Alliance says at the moment the law is "completely impractical" for farmers who want to carry out fox control, and that the changes proposed are limited to bringing the law in line with Scotland.
