Stop Woodland Sell-off
38 Degrees are running a petition to stop the sale by UK government of publicly owned woodland. FFR's editor urges you to go sign it!
OK, I know this is a fly-fishers' website, but I'm so incensed by this issue I'm compelled to make this post. For any number of reasons the sell-off of publicly owned woodland into private hands is a bad idea. I'm not going to write a lengthy piece outlining those reasons - I'll leave you to figure them out for yourself. If and when you do come back here and click through to 38 Degrees and sign their petition!
If you want to read a bit about the woodland sell-off, the BBC ran this article. Also Hands off our Forest gives some perspective...
