If anyone needed an example of how things are in the lived working countryside, how risky it is to speak up, & those old, stupid tropes ('the eternal & under-acknowledged truth..is the preachy & intrusive paternalism of city dwellers') check the comments under yesterday's Guardian Country Diary 1/4

Posting this as an antidote to a brutal comment under the article! There is risk in me writing pieces on this topic, having tried to change things from deep within for a long time. One day, perhaps, I’ll be able to write a lot more. Article above reply, in case of interest @wildjustice.bsky.social
