Keep Eating beef. Keep the British uplands alive, do not waste valuable
grazing land and generations of local knowledge and a largely organic
low tech lifestyle that has been going on for millennia.
Trouble is I don't think Mr Blackburn knows the difference between
arable land (veg, cereals etc) and grazing land (hills, dales and all
that people love about Britain). If so, why does he want to kill it off?
Pity, really. Still, why let the facts get in the way?
