I just cant get enough of this English guy Jack Hargreaves. It was my Irish Catholic grandmother that made me watch his programmes on TV "Out of Town" from the early 70's while I was at primary school and something virtuous and pure and genuine rubbed off onto me and I follow now religiously. And so should you!!

I visited (West) Sussex for the first time a couple of summers ago, and I could see what a stunningly beautiful county it must have been before the post WW2 agricultural intensification. Even now, there are a lot more trees than in my native North Yorkshire, but so much less space. It seems that wherever you are, there is an A road within earshot. I know towns and villages have to grow (apparently so, especially with the recent relaxation of planning restrictions), but it seems that they have carved up the counties of the south east far too much; just so many roads.

Sadly, 30 years on and environmentalists are often the worst enemy of the countryside. You can’t go to University, do an environmental science degree and pretend to understand the countryside, you have to live it, work it and observe it to understand it; sadly the trend now is to blame humanity for everything, even though it is humanity that has created the variety of landscapes and habitats that we once enjoyed. As the man hints at in the interview, the vast diversity of the British countryside is a direct result of the management practices of land owners and stewards over millennia. Farming, forestry, fisheries, hunting have all played their role in creating a balanced and healthy countryside. Humans wiped out many of the large predators like wolves as they were a direct threat to the domesticated stock, necessary to build civilisation as humans became the new top predator in the land. Humanity had to fill this void or the prey animals would overpopulate, starve in poor years and become diseased without the constant thinning and dispersal of the wild herd. Over the past few years we have seen the introduction and or protection of many top predators, this is having a dramatic impact on smaller herbivores and fish stocks. Controlled burning of heather moorland has now been discontinued in many areas (for environmental reasons!), which has led to the massive dieback and senescence of the heather, a huge increase in the fire loading (causing more intense and deep burning fires should they occur (Saddleworth Moor for example)) and many more examples of mismanagement and trendy, idealistic conservation that has led to a degradation of the countryside. Yer man also hinted at the shortcomings of the Common Agricultural Policy, with milk quotas. Fortunately we may be able to reverse some of the misguided, grant driven legislation and policy now we are leaving the ‘one size fits all’ EU. On the plus side, I do feel privileged to live in Dorset:-)
