More details
Kate Hoey is Labour MP for inner city Vauxhall and is Chair of the Countryside Alliance, an overwhelmingly Tory dominated organisation of bloodsports enthusiasts.
At the last election the CA tried to oust Labour MPs, who were against hunting, from their seats, they did this by campaining for pro hunt Tories.
Kate Hoey should face sanction from the Labour Party Executive for heading up an organisation that seeks to bring down the Labour government in its pursuit of the restoration of bloodsports.

Comments on this pledge

  • there is no place for cruelty in the countryside - or anywhere else for that matter.
    the world is a beautiful place - being destroyed by some mindless humans.
    kate hoey mp fits the above description, by fronting an organisation like countryside alliance.
    this organisation used to be the british field sports society - and their idea of 'sport' was to see defenceless animals and birds tortured, chased and killed.
    typical supporters are the over rich conservative types - but beware, some of the most cruel are the ordinary working man - who 'enjoys' watching his dogs 'work'. in other words, the terriermen - who dig out fox cubs and badgers for ritual torture.
    make the world a better place - and get rid of this scum once and for all - and those who support and lead them.
    keep writing to your mp's - and make labour honour their promises on animal welfare - help end animal cruelty once and for all!

  • Kate Hoey MP, as Chair of the 'so-called' Countryside Alliance, a Tory dominated bloodsports organization, formerly known as the British Field Sports Society, has no place in the Labour Party and should be asked for her resignation. The aim of all bloodsports enthusiasts is to bring down the Government and elect a government pledged to bring back the cruelty of hunting with dogs. Helen Weeks

  • I absolutely despise anyone who is associated with cruelty to animals whether wild or domesiticated. My experience of the blood sport supporters confirms that they are the lowest of the low, and I flatly refuse to have any dealings with them on a personal or commercial basis. I even refuse to shake hands - and that would apply to the low IQ terriermen and even HRH. The higher up the blood lust tree they are the worse they are, and since Kate Hoey is at the top, I have a strong feeling of revulsion whenever she appears on TV. She has no right in the House of Commons, or to be a member of the Labour Party following her earlier attempts to oust her fellow MP's.
