Woodland Trust's misleading advert
The Woodland Trust says:
"Britain's ancient woodland is disappearing" "Will you give £2.75 a month to protect half an acre forever?" What garbage! 1. Nothing can be protected "forever". 2. There is no guarantee they can protect ancient wioodland from development. 3. The advert implies certainty; where there is none. More fake conservation?

Perhaps Angus should have declared an interest, firstly that he has been in legal dispute with the Woodland Trust, who took him to court and won, and secondly that he is a property developer :-( Doen't alter the content. At least I'm not a fake conservationist. Angus Macmillan www.roots-of-blood.org.uk www.killhunting.org www.con-servation.org.uk |

Do you Have a URL or address for the Woodland Trust? I'm sure you can find it in Google However, try www.woodland-trust.org for an alternative view :-) Angus Macmillan www.roots-of-blood.org.uk www.killhunting.org www.con-servation.org.uk |

I'm sure you can find it in Google However, try www.woodland-trust.org for an alternative view :-) Or try www.woodland-trust.org.uk for an honest view. I'd imagine a fair number of people looking for the WT site might visit Angus' web page by mistake. It must be a source of confusion to have a WT detractor own that particular domain name. I've seen it rumoured that WT offered to accept the domain in lieu of costs following their successful legal action against Angus which prevented him using words like slaughter to describe some of the Trust's deer management activities. If I remember right they did but I told them to stuff it. I did offer it to them for £100,000 which I would donate to AR movements or for free if they stopped sl oops, killing deer. Incidentally, I mentioned recently that Angus had published the case report on one of his web-sites (I'm pretty sure he did) but I don't see it there now. I had it on for a short time as a link Angus Macmillan www.roots-of-blood.org.uk www.killhunting.org www.con-servation.org.uk |
