You said...Can't see anyone being bothered enough to go and purchase one with the sole purpose of cutting down a particular tree... I said I bought one to cut my conifer down. Perhaps I mistakenly gave you credit for being able to understand the context then?

He was a fat fucking turboMong and I was glad to see the back of him. Trivia: he kept a supply of 12 Carrs Pasties under his desk, and every day he’d eat 11 and fuck the 12th one with his tiny widgie.

Apart from Carr's run out of pasties less frequently.

September 29, 20232 yr Family used to be sheep farmers. I spent a few years joining in. Thick as utter fuck they are, sheep, but the countryside would be shit without them.

Decimating trees and wildflowers everywhere. And we wonder why we're in the midst of a biodiversity and mass extinction crisis? I'm under no illusion though, these kind of posts are still laughed at and seen and ridiculous. We still think we're above nature and don't understand that healthy ecosystems are intrinsic to our survival. It's why we're fucked.

We still think we're above nature and don't understand that healthy ecosystems are intrinsic to our survival. It's why we're fucked. Disingenuous that. If it wasn't sheep, it would be some other farmed product. Given that a lot of sheep are grazed high up, the land there isn't suitable for arable crops neither. It's all very well adopting an idealistic approach, but it doesn't put food on the table. Which is compounded by the push to move farming towards a less intensive, more diverse approach to production. Also a need to create much greater proportion of woodland, as well as build hundreds of thousands of new houses. They're not completely compatible, so something has to give. But bollocks to all of the above, let's keep expanding the size of the nation by allowing hundreds of thousands of folk in, in an unsustainable manner.

Idealistic 🤣 There's plenty of evidence that it is detrimental to biodiversity and native woodland growth. Upland sheep grazing impacts biodiversity and will take decades to recover - News - University of Liverpool You only need to take a walk on one of the endless sheep farms to see how fckn barren and terrible for wildlife it is. Got nothing to with other types of farming. Given that so much of it is exported, and that the farmers have more wool than anyone could ever possibly need, it's disingenuous claiming we need the current 30 million plus sheep to put food on the table. I'll not bother with your immigration rant, bit irrelevant to my point to be honest. Save it for your UKIP and Lee Anderson loving pals. x Edited September 30, 20232 yr by London Wanderer

October 1, 20232 yr 6 hours ago, gonzo said: People wouldnt miss lamb if it disappeared off our menus. It doesn’t need to disappear. As with many other farming methods, the practices need a massive rethink. But everyone just wants to crack on as normal and leave the change to another industry 🙉 Anyone but us. It’s incredible when you go to an area where deer & sheep are sustainably managed. It truly takes your breath away. Glen Feshie estate in the Cairngorms would be the perfect example, well worth a visit. The surrounding grouse moors & sheep grazing hills host a tiny fraction of the plants and wildlife. TMJ will be along shortly blaming the fckn dinghies 😂
October 1, 20232 yr What the fuck is wrong with sheep??? And don’t say “they’re not native” because neither are we.
