Besides, what business is it of government to stop killing foxes for fun?
It is the buisness of the governement to enact the will of the people they represent, and it is the will of the people that fox hunting be brought to an end.

To expand a little further, it is the duty of the government to enact the policies which were on their election manifesto's, the policies which they promised to fulfill. The labour party manifesto's have, since 1997 consistantly promised to conclude the issue of fox hunting.

That is one of the promises which they made prior to election, and as they are in power, it is unquestionably not just their buisness but it is their responcibility.

Does that answer your question?
