My thanks to one commenter who drew my attention to the 2009 Mori Poll the results of which show among other things that:

Among the general public as a whole, 75% support the ban on fox hunting remaining, while 21% want it repealed. In rural communities, 72% want to see fox hunting remain illegal. Among potential Conservative supporters, 62% say that fox hunting should not be made legal again, with 33% saying it should. 83% of Labour supporters are against fox hunting being legalised, compared to 13% in favour. 77% of Liberal Democrat voters are against repeal, versus 19% in favour.
