Although I care about animal welfare since I see how we treat animals as a glimpse into how caring our society is, animal welfare is not top of my list for voting for a political party during the 2010 general election.
That being said I agree with 90%+ of what Labour has achieved since it came into power, hunting down a fox with a packs of dogs is barbaric, there are far more humane ways to deal with foxes that are killing farm animals IF that is the reason for hunting them.
