"An effort to ban fox hunting will be voted down in the Dáil later today, despite accusations from a number of opposition TDs that the three largest parties are "defending the indefensible"."
"Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and Sinn Féin are among those who will oppose the bill to ban fox hunting when it comes to a vote this evening."
An effort to ban fox hunting will be voted down in the Dáil later today. Opposition TDs have accused the three largest parties of "defending the indefensible" by opposing the ban. Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and Sinn Féin are among those who will vote against the bill. The opposition characterizes the parties' stance as defending practices that campaigners seek to outlaw. The scheduled vote this evening is expected to result in the bill's defeat because of opposition from the major parties. Passage of a ban is therefore unlikely.
