Re: "I got a straight answer from a politician" – John Crole, Street.

Yes, I too have been wanting a straight answer from Tessa Munt regarding her views on repealing the Hunting Act – like John Crole of Street I could not vote for the sitting MP who not only seems to think persecuting and cruelty towards our wildlife is OK, but I also understand he owns a large chunk of Scotland for shooting purposes.

I was pleased to note Tessa's answer to Mr Crole – that she would not vote to repeal the Hunting Act. I expect I too shall receive her assurances on this.
