The relatively simple expedient of organising referenda in the hunting
regions would have settled the issue beyond any doubt at all, and, hopefully
would have lead to wider acceptance of the results, and a swifter return to
normality.

An interesting solution. First you have to decide who is in a hunting
region and who is not. Then what about those 'townies' who have moved
out to the country? Should they have a vote? Carry the logic a bit
further and perhaps only those who are directly affected, ie those who
hunt, should have a vote.
