Right to roam... Freedom!

[roXXo]

Finally, after nearly a century of endeavours, this current government has granted freedom of the people to wander over hitherto forbidden land.

cctv will be installed later

[derek kelly]

Anybody wanders over my land, will get a nasty shock.

 

[ianrobbo1]

thats made "Madonna's" day then!! and like at Derek's you get to walk over my property at your own risk!!
so the Queen isn't going to be overly amused to find the "riff's and the raff's" of this country wandering all over her places, or is that me being "silly" and assuming the law applies to her likes, as well as us!! :dunno:

 

[derek kelly]

No Ian, anybody walking over my land WILL get a nasty shock, I've got electric fencing all the way round.

Just like barbed wire was outlawed 15 years ago.

So what comes next then?

Roamers will go roaming over hitherto unroamable land. Actual landowner will be going about his/her lawful business on his crosser. Roamer will say oh God, I cant have this noise ruining my new found roaming land, I need to get this banned to. So landowner cant use a vehicle on his own land.

Think it could'nt happen?

Would'nt bet on it.

Derek it's an offence to have a electric fence that adjoins a public area or right of way.
The barbed wire is OK (I am led to believe) over a certain hight.

Does that mean DK will go to prison then! :}

when I bought my property I put the electric fence all the way round the paddock there are properties to two sides and fields to the other two sides we put the electric fence to our side of a wooden post and rail fence on one of the sides with properties, and on wooden and plastic stakes to our side of our 6' brambles seperating us from what at the time was one other property, however a property developer bought this one other property and built four more houses in the garden, and chopped my brambles from 6' down to about 2' so until they grow back the electric fence is all that is keeping the horses from straying onto these properties.
regarding the legalities of leccy fencing our solicitor informed us that it is legal adjoining a public area or right of way providing there are adequate warning signs explaining that the fence is electrified.

regarding barbed wire, several years ago I was taking my dog for a walk one dark evening when I nearly had my eye ripped out by a piece of barbed wire hanging from a fence, I went back the next morning to have a look, and found that the owner had coiled a roll of barbed wire to the top of his fence which was about 6' but he had not chopped the end off he just left it trailing about 3' across a public footpath.

I think you might have been miss-informed there, blind people can not see signs,
''Braille is NOT the way to overcome it, by the way'' 8l1nd

I'll check it out at work, we got a book somewhere

 

[Jaws]

Well thats fooked Blunket as well then !
I think he must use the blind excuse to get away with the blatant illigal activities he has repeatedly been caught involved in...

But surely (and I don't mean this in a derogatory or patronising way) a blind person would have someone with them if they were roaming the country side, a guide dog wouldn't be able to guide them round every hidden rabbit warren, it can be easy for a sighted person to lose their way in the open countryside let alone a blind person.

This goes back a long way

back to the Enclosure Act even before my time when the "Nobles" fenced off common land and claimed it as there own. They then sold off some of this land to others for profit so if my reckoning is correct just as if I buy a bike off some scrote who has stolen it the bike is returned to the legal owner when it all comes out and I have lost my money then Derek will have to take down his dyseclic fence and return his land to the good people of the Republic of Barnsley. :neenaw:
