You are using taxpayer money to close a street when 80% of the public is against hunting (both rural and town dwellers. In light of he recent aggression shown to members of the public being stabbed you should not continue to support this unpopular activity.

The former Chief Inspector of the CPS stated in an official report to the government last year that hunts around the country are engaging in "WIDESPREAD AND PUBLIC DISREGARD FOR THE LAW". Why is Lewes District Council enabling the promotion of this tiny lawless minority when 80% of the public support the ban on hunting?

i and my family have had to stop having our boxing day walk because of the sheer terror and sadness of encountering spectacles as this... why should we have to return home in tears because of these disgusting people who enjoy torture and death for fun.

The hunt are people who need to terrorise, hurt and kill animals for their pleasure and they have reportedly attacked humans as well. I do not think a council should support such a violent organisation.

this is disgraceful as you are supporting an illegal activity that is involved is savage barbarism. Is this the message you want to send out to children, that it's ok to break the Law? The Fox Hunting Ban 2004 prohibits this illegal activity and 80% of this country's population are against any repeals or amendments to the Fox Hunting Ban and if you allow this you are encouraging others to break the Law.

A despicable and disgusting "sport" that has no place in a modern, compassionate society. This behaviour is bordering on psychopathic, what other reason is there for such depravity?

Why are the Council supporting illegal activities? Perhaps its time to sack councillors who act with illegal intent.

Hunting with dogs is banned in the UK. It would appear that peaceful protests against hunting is being met with escalating violence by hunt supporters. It is alleged that police from the area are supporting these illegal hunts and harassing the saboteurs. STOP hunting in the UK

Why do you support an illegal activity, do you not know that they have always ignored the hunt ban.

Hunting and the traditional boxing day meets should be relegated to the history books. Hunting belongs in the medieval era not the environmentally aware 21st Century. Please do not allow the closure of Lewes High Street for the parading of this very unpopular 'sport'. Thank you

Hunting causes completely unnecessary suffering to completely innocent animals. Just stop it.

Hideously cruel so called sport should not be condoned by Lewes Council. Hunts are breaking the law and bragging about it online. Please do not allow hunting on council land.
