I think it would be a great shame and something we shall live to regret.Re: Selling the Family Silver? Or Prudent Move?
I too woud vote against sale of public owned lands Claire. We are very lucky to have a lot of open space and protected areas around us, much of it National Trust - but not all of it is Goverment owned, although much of it is accessible.Re: Selling the Family Silver? Or Prudent Move?
Don`t you think it`s a bit pathetic that a bit of woodland is all that we have left for sale? Having to sell assets is a sure sign of failed management, and all recent governments are guilty of this. I am against all and any sale of national assets. They are not the government`s to sell, they are ours!Re: Selling the Family Silver? Or Prudent Move?

I live in the Pacific Northwest in the United States. We have more trees than any state in the country. Years ago the logging indistry started to "clear cut" huge areas of Oregon for profit, leaving the land barren and vulnerable to erosion and waste. Wildlife habitats were not even a consideration. Then conservationalists got involved and got legislation passed to require logging companies to plant one tree for every one they cut down. It was landmark legislation that is saving our environment and way of life. I can see no more important issue for future generations than preserving our planet.

As the last goverments have nearly sold off everything British then it comes as no surprise to see more of our heritage going for auction.Re: Selling the Family Silver? Or Prudent Move?
