Like I've said before environmentalism makes us all worse off.. Orders from Brussels in order to fight climate change, create diversity and all the other eco mumbo jumbo has meant that we were under strict instructions to not only encourage but to deliberately flood thousands of acres of farmland to meet targets so we were, once again, at one with nature.
The same thing is happening, to some extent, in the States as they face severe water shortages but batty mad eco laws were passed giving fish greater priority over mankind.
Chris Smith's hands are effectively tied as he is merely following orders.
