Why did the SNP vote on english hunting laws?

Constituentially there is nothing preventing them and most of their supporters are lefties who would be outraged if they didn't. That's why basically.

has nothing to do with foxes

conservatives are just trying to win over english voters by proving a point

but no one in england cares that scotland votes on english matters, why do the Conservatives think they do ?

Why would they adhere to principles when there's potential advantage to be found? Why would you expect the SNP, of all parties, to have principles? In short, why do you find this remotely surprising?

None of their supporters care about what they have pledged in the past. They don't even care about foxes - the Government's proposals are largely to change the law in England to the same as it has been in Scotland, where the SNP has had the power to change it for eight years.

Because leftists are notorious for sticking their hands in someone else's business.

I didn't think they had. I thought the threat of the SNP's vote against the proposal forced the Conservatives to pull tomorrow's vote.

Ah boohoo, those horrible leftists won't let us kill foxes.

like I said in the opening post - I completely disagree with hunting
however, there are some things I disagree with more in society, and that's one country telling another country what to do when it's not their electoral business. it's entirely undemocratic given the circumstances and the SNP are dictating to the institutions which give england political/democratic representation. we don't have very democratic institutions, but the SNP are stepping all over the constitutional-legitimacy of their MPs if these MPs are trying to dictate to the english when the english didn't vote for them.

No such thing as 'constitutional legitimacy'. As members of the HoC they can vote on all measures in the house.
In the same way the tories of England can impose austerity on Scotland.

english MPs have committed to *not* voting on scottish matters, and for a long time, the scottish MPs agreed to not vote on english matters. however, they're turning their backs on this rule/convention of basic fairness now. this is why I *completely* agree with the principle of EVEL (english votes for english laws), because obviously and clearly, the scottish (or at least the SNP) can't be trusted in politics to be fair for ****

after some research that would seem to be true - a threat to vote against it, as opposed to already doing it. but it's basically the same effect seeing as they wouldn't mostly go back on their word seeing as it's not going to make scottish voters change their opinion

English MPs can vote on matters for Scotland such as budget cuts, don't see why the can't do the same.
I would say voting against fox hunting is a great thing - stop complaining.
