Tory fox hunt ‘caring’ claim

A TORY peer who backs fox-hunting has claimed last night he cares more for foxes than supporters of the ban on bloodsports do.

Lord Mancroft said he was chair of the Council of the Hunting Associations and of the Master of Fox Hounds Association.

And he added they were “the only two organisations which have any interest in the welfare for the animals concerned”.

Philippa King of the League Against Cruel Sports said he must be after a “job in comedy”.
