Horse manure was pushed through the letterbox

Members of the Colne Valley Beagles gathered outside Kali Mountford's office in Slaithwaite on Friday calling on her to oppose the Bill.

Manure was pushed through the office letterbox during the demonstration.

The Labour MP confirmed she has received 4,500 letters urging her to change her mind on the subject.

Ms Mountford was at home during the protest, but two members of her staff were inside the Carr Lane office during the demonstration.

She said: "My views on hunting have been clear through two elections and I have met representatives of the Colne Valley Beagles many times and told them how I would vote.
