Please vote on the English fox hunting ban ammendments
On Thursday the 16th July, the Conservative party will hold a free vote to try to amend/repeal the fox hunting bill in England. With such a narrow majority, the only way they are likely to get it passed is if the SNP abstain from the vote due to it being an English matter.
Please vote against this bill which is not only inhumane but is also going against the wishes of 80% of the population of the UK.

Why is this important?
Traditionally, the SNP have abstained from voting on policies that do not directly affect Scotland. The changes to the fox hunting bill that are to be voted on in a free vote in Westminster next Thursday whilst not directly impacting on Scotland do go against the wishes of 80% of the UK population. The SNP should make a stand on this breach of democracy as their vote is likely to be the deciding vote.
