Daft Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 For sale: all of our forests. Not some of them, nor most of them – the whole lot We now know, thanks to the junior environment minister Jim Paice's frank evidence to a recent House of Lords select committee, that the government is considering the sale of not just "some", or even "substantial", amounts of woodland as the public was originally led to believe, but of all state-owned English trees across the commission's 635,000-acre Forestry Commission estate. This includes many royal forests, state-owned ancient woodlands, sites of special scientific interest, heathland, campsites, farms and sporting estates. More... Unbelievable, really.

The Bard Posted December 23, 2010 Share Posted December 23, 2010 Ok, I didn't go to the student demonstrations, but I will full on riot if this is the case. The reasons to live in this country are diminishing one by one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
