Foxhunting and the Tories
"Hunt masters are rallying the troops in a bid for Tory victory after David Cameron pledged to hold a free vote on foxhunting if he gets into Downing Street"
It looks like East Kent Hunt is calling for its members to vote tory. No surprise there but it does highlight, once again, just how out of touch the Tory views on hunting really are. They continue to support this cruel and barbaric sport that deserves no place in a civilised society.
Plenty of letters in the local press recently against hunting with dogs, seems there is no appetite for it in Maidstone.
Unlike the Tories, Greens are passionate about animal rights and we oppose killing and harming animals for fun.

Maidstone's Lush attacked by fox hunters
According to the Independent today, Lush in Maidstone was one of the stores tha
t were attacked by people supporting fox hunting.
"In Maidstone, Kent, a kebab was smeared over the shop front and the words 'Fuck You' scratched into the glass, while in Taunton, Somerset, an anonymous caller told staff to "watch their backs". Promotional campaign blackboards were also covered with "Keep Hunting" stickers, photos of which appeared on the online forum of the magazine Horse & Hound."
I will be writing a letter of support to the local Lush store. Lush are an excellent company and deserve our support.
