Speaker 2
It's a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship.  I'd like to move that this House has discussed hunting trophy imports. 

For anyone watching this debate who's unsure of what we are debating today, hunting trophies are taken from animals that are murdered by huntsmen, usually big game, in what is the most despicable form of hunting which remains today.  In the words of Sir David Attenborough, "Trophy hunting is what people did in the 19th century.  One would have thought people would have gotten over that."  In order to bring their trophies or bits of mutilated animals, hunting trophies back to the UK, the hunters need to obtain an import license.  The UK is among a diminishing number of countries that still license the import of hunting trophies.
