Charles should tell the old crone that he'll give up hunting when she gives up the throne (at death).

Getting spanked in humiliating public fashion like this by "dear old mum" makes him look a lot worse than continuing to hunt. He must be counting the days....

The Queen believes that continuing to hunt when the majority of MPs and the nation at large abhor it, is a step too far," the Daily Mirror Friday quoted a a senior courtier as saying. "But the Queen believes that even if there is only a partial ban, Charles would court disaster for his future reputation if he over-rode the will of the people."
I wonder if he agrees with the queen? I mean, I'm sure that the majority of MPs and the nation at large abhorred that extra-marital affair he had awhile ago, and might have also felt that it was step too far in the way of hurting the Royal Reputation. If memory serves me correct, ..that wasn't enough to stop him then.

Hmmmm..... in our family the rule is "if you aren't going to eat it, then don't kill it". Hunting should never be for the sheer pleasure of killing. Hunting is food gathering. I know someone is going to say, "but since you can buy food in the grocery store, then why hunt?".... my husband tells his sons that food may be available in the stores, but men should never forget how to hunt it on their own.
Perhaps the pampered princes should be told they can fox hunt if they are willing to eat the fox afterwards.

Most of the countryside in the UK happens to disagree with the Queen here, not Charles.

Yet more evidence that the BRITISH gene-pool has been irreparably polluted by WOOSES!!!

I previously thought the monarchy needed to be kept due to history and tradition. But maybe its time for the British to actually write their Constitution down on paper and go republican.

In a few years Brittan will be up to their you know what in foxes.

Let's face it: fox hunting is pretty purely cruel and useless. The fox is run to death, terrified for hours, attacked by dogs, and then shot. After its death it is useless as food. Quite a different activity than stalking an animal on foot for a quick kill.

Time for him to start hunting MPs.

Granted, the Queen has a point and I expect she is right. Hunting is a great sport, drag or live. When the multiplying fox population eats enough cats (the preferred pet in jolly ‘ol England)...perhaps a compromise can be reached. Raise and release more foxes and resume the Hunt!
Tally Ho, Press on...........!
The Brits are also claiming the cats have decimated the Song Bird population.
Tea time is not endangered...yet.

He could always do drag hunts, which we sometimes used to have in Massachusetts in the old days. Someone drags a scent over an interesting course, and the dogs follow that instead of a fox. There's just as much opportunity to jump ditches and fences and risk killing yourself, which is the main point of fox hunting anyway.

Seeing as the Queen herself is a hunter, I doubt that this story is accurate.

Why is it okay for British SAS to hunt down Iraqi soldiers but not for the British subjects to hunt fox?
Simply outrageous.
