I have recently received a number of e-mails asking me about my position on the hunting ban introduced by Labour in the Hunting Act 2004. The e-mails have sought assurances that I would not support repeal of the ban. I can confirm that I support the ban on hunting and would not support repeal of this legislation. I have also pledged support along with the Lib Dem candidate for the cruelty free campaign. Voters can check which candidates support the cruelty free campaign at: http://www.votecrueltyfree.org/
