THE continuing saga of the fox still holds Parliament in its grip. The obvious solution would be to muzzle the hounds, thus eliminating any serious harm.

Or, have the hounds fitted with false teeth - I'm sure this could be arranged cheaply through a fox-friendly dentist - and the day of the hunt, to remove them. And, tally ho! - problem solved.
