All of your posts on this subject have this ridiculous subtext centred around those that live in 'rural areas', and those that don't; it seems that you understand only that the two groups are mutually exclusive, and that non-rural dwellers in particular have a particular ignorance of rural affairs.
A bit like supposing that all "cyclists" are completely ignorant of the world of driving and motor vehicle ownership.
You might be surprised/enlightened to learn that huge numbers of urban dwellers are deeply familiar and deeply involved in 'rural' matters, and might even be more deeply rooted there than you're prepared to understand - but don't let that stop you from categorising them accordingly.

I lived in London for 25 years. I currently live in both London and the Cotswolds. I understand both sides. 4 days ago I suggested that fox hunting was a big deal in rural areas and the Tories would campaign on it. This may or may not be true.
I think you have misunderstood me but thanks for your input.

I was referring to the local hunt (Heythrop) at the estate where I live. There are hundreds of people involved in that hunt. I can't speak for all people. Also have gone to a lot of events where the Conservatives campaign on the promise to repeal the ban
It turns out now that it is not only a legit campaign issue for rural voters but also I see there is now a thread on here about fox hunting, which seems to be not all haters, and an interesting discussion, particularly for those who don't live in rural areas and might find it useful
So the debate is relevant. You are welcome
