In addition the article is taken from the newspaper "The Guardian" which is a highly respected newspaper in England.

For example, the paragraph  “However, a number of police officers appear to support hunts, and some–even including the occasional wildlife crime officer–ride with them, it is claimed.” The word “claimed” suggests that the motivation by the reporters is to create uncertainty whether some police support fox hunting and are ignoring the law. Further reading of the report that police are turning a blind eye and reports are going uninvestigated also seems to add to the motivation of the reporter.

I believe this news article is reliable as it is based upon a detailed document created by investigators that have followed the illegal hunting of foxes.
