[QUOTE="DeeGee, post: 7265828, member: 6695"] I know it’s totally politically incorrect, and I really do mean no offence. But why employ someone in a wheelchair if you need to travel across acres of rough land just to arrive there and prove that the occupant can plant a tree on perfectly good farmland that will henceforth be totally unproductive for food? By all means plant trees in any areas that are suitable for them, and never exclude those who may be in any way disadvantaged. Let them plant trees in field corners, wasteland, brown field sites etc. But surely not on prime farmland? But this of course is the BBC. So of course we must always toe that all inclusive liberal line. It brings to mind the apposite adage that ‘A well fed man has many problems. A starving man has only one.’ [/QUOTE]
