The history of CHILDREN BRUTALIZING CHILDREN normally starts with them brutalizing animals,which poses a question David Cameron MUST answer;
HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN TO A CHILD, IT'S ALRIGHT TO TORMENT AND KILL A WILD ANIMAL FOR FUN, BUT IT'S NOT ALRIGHT FOR A CHILD TO TORMENT AND EVEN KILL A CAT FOR FUN?
There is of course a difference between the two blood activities, one is conducted by DYSFUNCTIONAL CHILDREN WHO KNOW NO BETTER, and the other is conducted by ADULTS WHO SHOULD KNOW BETTER.
There is a simple message for both brutalizers, and because David Cameron is bound to parley with semantics, let's put it this way so that even David Cameron can't evade.
YOU DON'T KILL A LIVING CREATURE FOR SPORT,FUN,RECREATION,AMUSEMENT OR FOR ANY OTHER REASON THAT SUGGESTS GIVING PLEASURE
Before David Cameron takes the high ground in condemning cases of CHILDREN BRUTALIZING CHILDREN, whenever they occur. he should first look in the mirror and ask himself what influences mold the children into the monsters they are, and if he is really honest, he'll conclude he's looking at one of those influences.

Page 7;POLICY ONE continued. RED HERRINGS
Debating the justification for the banning of fox hunting on the grounds of economy or degree of cruelty are two red herrings in a bottomless sea of loopholes the Country Alliance love to swim in.
The economic value of fox hunting,although small,is beyond dispute,and will continue in rude health unless it is possible to prove it's activities cause pain to wild animals,and there's the rub.
It is difficult, if not impossible, to measure the degree of pain an animal experiences when it is being hunted to a violent death,and that's why the country alliance have been able to continue the controversy in the fox hunting debate to their advantage.
Hunters could argue their method of dispatching a fox is no more cruel than dispatching cattle in the abattoir,which,by-the-way, practices the most human method of killing.Now let's imagine an abattoir was to introduce a sporting element into the slaughtering process,then that abattoir would be closed down, and that is the point, it's just plain wrong to kill an animal for fun and nothing to do with the degree of pain.
The only way we can judge fox hunting is on PRINCIPLE.A sport can only be principled or unprincipled.It can't be a little bit principled or a little bit unprincipled, which makes the case against fox hunting very simple because, by any measure,it is unprincipled,AND NOTHING IN A COMPASSIONATE SOCIETY WILL MAKE IT ANYTHING ELSE
UNTIL DAVID CAMERON UNDERSTANDS A BLOOD SPORT IS QUITE SIMPLY UNPRINCIPLED THEN HE WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO PERSUADE THE MAJORITY OF VOTERS THAT HE IS A COMPASSIONATE MAN.

Page 9;POLICY ONE continued. IS CAMERON JUST THE MESSENGER AND NOT THE MASTER
Instead of repealing the Hunting Laws David Cameron might consider strengthening the laws against Fox Hunting.
Before dismissing the above advice he might just consider persuading one of his fox hunting friends to fix it for him to witness the ritualistic killing of the fox by hounds...assuming he hasn't already...then he might,if he's a man with an ounce of compassion, think twice about repealing the fox hunting laws.
Drafting another bill might be the wrong approach to stop fox-hunting once and for all as it would be given the lowest priority,and beside, formulating a loophole proof bill would be time consuming and would not survive the upper classes in the House of Lords.
.
A better way might be to set-up a council with the remit to issue licenses for culling wildlife on the condition proof is given that the intended pursuit of wildlife is not perceived as a sport and does not disturb other wildlife. We could have a council established by parliament and at the same time distant from parliament where it's performance for policing blood sports can be scrutinized by those committed to ending the abomination.
But perhaps David Cameron is just the messenger and not the master. David Cameron thinks he can show commitment to the REPEAL OF THE HUNTING LAW and at the same time putting it on the back burner,however,the Country Alliance might have something to say about that.

Page 11;POLICY ONE continued. IS OUR CLASS SYSTEM THE BARRIER TO REFORM?
The British Class system is famous round the world for it's divisive influence on society, and FOX HUNTING is one of many examples of the Class System on display.
David Cameron is another example of the Class System on display. You may think he's "ONE OF US" when he says," WE'RE ALL IN IT TOGETHER!". What he wont tell us is, whatever train "WE'RE IN TOGETHER", he'll be traveling in the first class department.
If David Cameron is serious about wanting to be seen as "ONE OF US" and not just another upper class OLD ETONIAN on a mission to remind us who are the RULING CLASS ,the best start he could make is by condemning the abomination of blood sports, but it has got to be a true conversion,as was Paul's conversion on the road to Damascus, and not just another exercise in ticking a box.
Of course David Cameron will never drop his support for blood sports, but that doesn't mean he wont find a way of TICKING THE BOX,especially if there's a vote in it,and he'll do with so much spin we wont notice he'll have a foot in both camps.
And sincerity will have nothing to do with, just like all the other boxes he's ticked
