'Rewilding' for arsehole landowners like him are purely so they can restrict public access to their land. Get him in the sea. Well wide of the mark. I do forestry work in one of his estates that's undergoing alot of work just now, all access kept open. He also is an advocate of non use of pesticides on his land, and is heavy into minimising the use of plastics too. The sheer amount of work for joiners, stonemasons, roofers etc and forestry and arb work is immense, your man's providing work for a shit ton of people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but did he ever w**k off a dug? And, if so, was that before or after your appraisal of him? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Highland clearances 2.0 he's after, replacing people with wolves instead of sheep. Looking at the article posted by @sophiaThe one in Shetland looks a better option. People can stay. Far too many sheep though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No reason why they both can't go ahead though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all sounds a heartwarming tale but does nothing to refute the original point. At the moment people can access the estate because he has no choice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
