It’s not just subsidised sheep. There’s plenty of grain grown on crap land propped up by subs, that would probably be better with sheep on!Haha! Well I was actually with you on most of that, as a upland farmer using a reasonable bit of electric fencing.
Where you went wrong was the insinuation that moorland/ common could be subdivided.
Practically, at a very push maybe.
Politically, absolutely not- open access and SSSI regs.
I hate to say it but your "subsidised sheep" mantra has been said on quite a few threads now.... i notice these things! ?
