our common lands

This is happening all over Britain, and the common denominator is the body calling itself Natural "England". They have desicrated the unique and ancient landscape of the Penwith Moors in West Cornwall; also The Lizard and the Isles of Scilly at  this end of Britain. Fences, gates and grids have gone in where none have ever been before. Grazing by absurdly large stock is serially damaging valuable archaeological sites. Visitor numbers have dwindled by 75% in just 2 years, with detrimental effect on the local economy. Like everywhere else ths has happened, the public was faced with a fait accompli, with no consultation and in direct breach of the Aarhus Convention. There are benign alternatives to the draconian forms of "management" being imposed, and we should not take this bureaucratic rape of our landscape and heritage lying down.
