[QUOTE="toquark, post: 7712559, member: 72428"] I’m no fan of the SNP, but I thought their rural policy was actually reasonably functional and sensible. Proportionally rural economics are much more important to Scotland than the UK as a whole. However, I strongly suspect that this chink of light of competence will now be extinguished in the name of a much more extreme agenda. My predictions for the next five years: Grouse shooting will be banned. Its low hanging fruit for both parties. Fieldsports in general will come under a lot of pressure. The red meat industry is going to come under a lot of pressure. Greening/rewilding will be turbocharged. Not directly ag related but it affects us all, the social justice fruitbats now have their hands firmly on the levers of power and will continue to force through their extreme ideology via schools, universities and the civil service. Does anyone have a more optimistic outlook? Or will I sell my guns, disperse the flock and home school the kids?! [/QUOTE]
