Stop hunting of Foxes

United Against Hunting this general election

Dear John,

The general election is underway, and we at the League are busy preparing for a national campaign to ask candidates to stand United Against Hunting.

In 2017, our Votes for Vinny campaign succeeded in forcing the government to drop its pledge to have a free vote on repealing the Hunting Act. This led to the Labour party to call for a strengthening of the ban.

This election year, Vinny the fox is back!

You can follow Vinny on Twitter @VoiceforVinny. If you don’t have Twitter, don’t worry, a dedicated website will go live next week.

The United Against Hunting campaign is a vital opportunity to change the political landscape in favour of Britain’s wildlife. A successful campaign will help us bring hunting to an end – for good.

We did it in 2017, we can do it again.Vinny's Twitter avatar #UnitedAgainstHunting

Vinny will be asking the public to contact their election candidates to put their views on hunting with hounds on the record. We will share this information far and wide so everyone can make informed decisions on voting for animal welfare.

We will be running Election Roadshows up and down the country (dates TBC) throughout the campaign.

Most importantly, we need your help to run local events in your area. We have a range of campaign materials to help you: new t-shirts, flags, leaflets, placards and specially branded tablecloths, all the tools you’ll need to support the campaign. Or, if you just fancy handing out leaflets in your local area, we can also provide you with the materials you need.

The campaign materials are being manufactured as you read this. To make sure we print enough we need to know you are able to stand United Against Hunting and take part in the campaign.

If you can help, please reply to this email, or contact supportercare@league.org.uk with the below details:
