Stop the Tory persecution of foxes!!

Not satisfied with a planned UK badger cull, it has been reported today that Boris Johnson Tory MP & Lord Mayor of London is calling for an urban fox cull. This follows media reports of a fox entering an East London house through open patio doors to a room where the child's parents were sat watching TV & found it's way to an upstairs bedroom where it simultaneously "mauled" 9 month old twin girls sleeping in separate cots, thus acting in every way against the natural instinct of foxes.
Media coverage to this incident have been biased inconsistent & intent on creating public hysteria towards a wild species that has coexisted peacefully alongside us in towns & cities since records on urban fox populations were made in 1930. Far from being an urban pest their main diet source is the rats that ARE considered a real problem in inner-city areas.
Wildlife experts including Terry Nutkins, Bill Oddie John Bryant & the RSPCA are speaking out in defence of foxes but it is well known that the Tory Party led by (hunter) David Cameron are happy to demonise foxes as part of their plan to repeal the Hunting with Dogs Act, & will take advantage of & fuel the ongoing media witch hunt.
Just a week ago a licensed gun owner shot & killed 12 people & injured 24 others in Cumbria. Just a day later David Cameron released a statement saying there would be "no knee-jerk reaction to ban shot guns" so it is quite ironic that after just one instance of a (yet to be adequately proven) fox attack a Tory MP is calling for a nationwide cull.
Conveniently by making a larger issue of fox populations this will act as an opening for the Conservatives to bring the pledged repeal of the ban to the House of Commons. It's a lame attempt to appear as though they are acting in the interests of the British public (75% of the population are currently against repeal) whilst the real issue & motive is their support of bloodsports!!

Please note, I have started this petition independently of Save Me. Org but I believe I speak for a large proportion of Save Me supporters & anti-hunt campaigners.  My purpose is to send a link of this petition to the  Conservatives, Lib Dems & also to the Nations media who's demonisation of foxes & unbalanced coverage of this story is leading to the extermination of foxes.
