Tom Brake MP reports on fox hunting debate being postponed in the House of Commons….

Dear Hamish,

Good news – the vote on fox hunting has been postponed.

This is because the SNP signaled that they will vote to uphold the ban. It is however disappointing that it required the intervention of the SNP which had pledged not to vote on matters that did not affect Scotland.

The Tories should never have attempted to scrap the ban in the first place.

We must keep up the pressure to uphold the ban. Don’t let the Conservatives get away with what amounts to political trickery to allow this cruel sport back into our country.

They intend bringing the vote back when they have introduced English Votes for English Laws. If you haven’t already please sign my petition to keep fox hunting illegal today here.

And if you are able to donate to help fund Fox Hunting postcards please donate here.

Best wishes,

Tom Brake
Liberal Democrat MP for Carshalton & Wallington

P.S. Can you help deliver these postcards in your area? If so please reply with your name and address and I’ll get a bundle dropped of with you.
