TWO emotive subjects in the news at the moment - foxhunting and full pints in the pub - both have a very common theme.

The foxhunting issue comes up again and again with arguments on both sides.

The solution is this - the powers held by RSPCA at the moment allows prosecution for cruelty to animals, so why are these powers not used? If foxes are so cruelly treated, then the hunts should be prosecuted.

On the full-pint issue, the solution is also simple. Trading standards have the power to prosecute offenders, so why are these powers not used? If the customer isn't happy, then the pub should be prosecuted
