Show your support for hunting

    How to show your support for hunting in the run up to the government debate on Monday, 18 March

    The Countryside Alliance has stated that in the build-up to the vote on Monday, 18 March all MPs should be made aware of the strength of support there is for the continuation of hunting.

    Four things you can do:

    1. Invite your MP to visit kennels, a farm, a farrier, hireling stables or a point-to-point.
    2. Visit his weekly surgery to explain the impact a hunting ban would have on rural people.
    3. Write him a short, handwritten letter at House of Commons, London SW1A 0AA.
    4. Write a letter to your local paper – letters pages are always pleased to receive readers’ views and you have a strong chance of getting your letter printed.

    To find out who your local MP is and the contact details, contact the Houses of Parliament (tel: 020 7219 3000) or visit website www.locata.co.uk/commons/

    For further advice, contact your CA regional director or the CA political department (tel: 020 7840 9260).
