I do like honest and "to the point" talking!!!!
But as has been said it no doubt fell on deaf ears!

Apparently one of the effects of Packham's kind of mental health issue is an inability to empathise with others, little Greta apparently has the same illness.

I believe it’s neurodiversity as opposed to mental health issues. Such is the way of extemists, they know they’re right and everyone else is wrong
See also Mr Mat Cole, a Dartmoor sheep farmer's response via the NFU and the Deputy President's remarks:-
The one certainty in this is that Packham is not operating constructively, but is grandstanding in a confrontational manner for his own personal gain. His article was ill-informed, quite likely spurious and frankly silly. His argument for Dartmoor being overstocked consisted of noting that grazing densities were lower in the Lake District, a region both much further north and much higher than Dartmoor. There is no reason to suppose that the productivity of the two areas are equivalent. He blamed the state of bogs on peat extraction, which is either very, very out of date or wrong. He made no mention of the increasing erosion and other damages caused by ramblers and other plastic shedding lefties all over the moor, nor by open public access, poor policy from the park authority and so on.
Dartmoor National Park is badly managed and sheep are a small part of the problem, people are a large part - particularly activists.
The fact is that people like Packham neither like nor understand moors and particularly dislike the traditional ways of managing them and would much prefer them to be re-engineered into boreal forests.

So they are a woman then
I keep saying to our organisations its time to call some of these "conservationists" out
The other day hew was promoting loo roll - made from Bamboo and made in Spain
When it was pointed out the bamboo was grown in China - shipped to Spain to be made into loo roll - then shipped here - it was suddenly taken down !
Its like hes the president or whatever of the RSPB who cull birds and animals - a gemekeeper does it and they are satan !

It's all about the money, if everyone ignored him his profile would fall and his income would drop. You are never going to win an argument, he moans about global warming yet sells long haul holidays and breakfast cereal made in Thailand so clearly doesn't give a toss. Maybe one day the media will listen to the likes of Davie Scott.
