CPRE Forest sale updateCampaign update

Thanks to Liz P for the following:

CPRE's President, Bill Bryson, was one of around 100 public figures who signed a recent letter to the Sunday Telegraph raising serious questions about the proposed sale of Forestry Commission land, and calling for full consultation before any changes are made. Bill has also supported CPRE’s Gloucestershire branch in questioning proposals to sell land in the Forest of Dean, and in calling for the forest to be protected as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

The Government are now inviting the public to have their say through a consultation.

Thanks for the link. Interesting to read the at this has become such a national cause celebre, but I thought it a rather wet lazy opinion piece on the whole.
