Anti-hunt campaigners also brought a town council motion to try and stop an event in the town square in Tiverton, Devon, which was rejected.However, the Countryside Alliance said: ‘It will be going ahead normally, with organisers taking extra precautions to protect spectators from a suspected protest.’
Fox hunting was banned in England and Wales following the introduction of the Hunting Act 2004, which came into force a year later.
