Experts say it causes fish pain. Is it because many Labour MPs fish? I don't hunt by the way.

Don't know their involvement with Labour but I would imagine Labour would be keen on their ideas. They are a Animal Rights group and I would imagine are involved with AR terrorism. They are working towards the new Animal Welfare Bill in which an Early Day Motion (which to be honest I do not have a clue on, it's named EDM 1777) is currently being fed to MPs in an attempt to ban animal fairs. The majority of those who have currently signed appear to be Labour MPs.

Thats a link to the EDM 1777 if you are interested. A brief note on their claims upon most exotics coming from wild, that although this may be different with birds, a very high majority of Reptiles at shows are actually captive bred.
