Just to rub salt in the wound, it's effective immediately!!!

In response to the case, the Labour party has vowed that if it wins power, it will expand the right to roam and wild camp across England.

Hits home quite hard, currently reading 'The book of Trespass' about how the law of trespass came to be, and was hoping to bikepack on Dartmoor this year.

Donated to the Right To Roam campaign, all of us losing this right because of the whims of one grotesquely-overpaid **** is just not right.

Awful news. This is like the Kinder trespass in reverse.
