UK Ban on Fox Hunting

For obvious reasons, I'm conflicted on this issue. As a sort of an honorary fox myself, I sympathize with the little beasties being hunted. On the other hand, as a lover of things traditional, I hate to see a piece of Old Britain wiped out by House-of-Commons fiat.

Regardless of the merits of the policy, though, doesn't the Fourth Commandment oblige us to obey the commands of lawful authority unless they contravene the moral law? And, while the moral law may permit the use of dogs to hunt foxes (then again, it may not...I dunno) it certainly doesn't require us to do so.
