Very much part of the same issue - the Peak District National Park has put the Roaches up for sale. Was discussed in yesterday's edition of Countryfile with Matt Baker sounding the alarm for a place he clearly loves.

That is a magnificent environment and such a shame. It's disgraceful. The Tories have never had any appreciation of the environment, or culture. The cutbacks in Somerset alone are appaling, libraries and recycling centres being closed, rural bus routes axed (get the bus to find work eh , IBS you over priviledged out of touch pillock ?) and yes, the wildlife is under threat.

Somerset have cut their arts budget by 100%. I know some people will think arts aren't as important as health and schools and wildlife and so on. But what does that tell you about somerset council when they can cut it out completely 100%. It's that price of everything value of nothing thing again. This country has gone to the dogs. And Clegg, saying that student protests are putting people off going to university?? It is like (as I read somewhere) saying rustling leaves cause the winds. Sigh.
