The link you give doesnt explain much about loop holes.. it seems that the law is just basically being ignored!
I really dont know much about the sport.. other than the TV stereotypes we are fed over here (in the colonies ).. you know people wearing red suits speaking with overly posh accents making cavalry charges against some terrified little beast. Is this actually cruel? is there more to the "hunt"? i.e. are they using howitzers once the beast is cornered? do these foxes have ties to Al Queda?
If the only thing that really happens is the fox gets chased about, why not form the BSAFO! (British Society Against Fox Obesity).
