Mr Barrington is consultant to The Parliamentary Middle Way Group, a cross-party body that campaigns for a workable compromise on hunting, and will continue in that role while working for the CA.
Mr Barrington commented: “Working with the Countryside Alliance seems like a logical progression, as the Hunting Act has been revealed as pointless and damaging to animal welfare.”
