This new poll is an all time high in public opposition to Fox hunting. This is on the back of an earlier poll done this year, in July, by the BBC, who found that 74% of people asked, said that they opposed legalising Fox hunting/were against Fox hunting. That means, that in just under half a year, public opinion has shifted dramatically in support for the hunting ban.
The mainstream media will often say that Fox hunting is a ''controversial'' issue, that ''divideds'' people. Clearly this is not the case, as there is pretty much a large consensus that Fox hunting should be illegal, and remain so - there is no division - only a tiny minority support hunting with dogs.
There is no future for Fox hunting in modern day Britain, and most people agree with that.
