Britain's Heart of Oaks to be sold

The UK Government plans to sell-off public forests. Protest campaigns are growing all over the country. Billy Bragg's version of the classic Woody Guthrie folk song seems the ideal soundtrack.

Heard over the weekend that the Tory MP for the Forest of Dean, Mark Harper, held a meeting on the planned sell-off of the forest on Friday night. Given only 24 hours notice, the protesters packed the hall with as many again locked out. They sang my British version of 'This Land Is Your Land' and, after being confronted with nothing but opposition to the govt plans, police had to escort the Tory out of the back door.
