Following calls to outlaw the hunting of foxes, pro-hunt supporters converged on Brighton during the Labour Party Conference to voice their opinion to the Labour Government. As part of the protests, a van pulled up near the train station, the rear doors were opened, a rope was tied to a lamppost before the van moved away, dragging the body of a horse onto the road. The driver then pushed a placard through the animals ribcage before driving away.

The stunt caused a huge divide of opinion in the people passing by with hunt supporters laughing, joking and taking pictures while shoppers and children looked on in shock and disgust
