					<description><![CDATA[I ended last week&#8217;s piece on the purchase by Tir Natur of land in the Elenydd, the beautiful &#8216;wilderness&#8217; between Lampeter and Llanwrtyd, by saying that I was waiting for further information on what was planned to have been the second part of that offering.

Because there&#8217;s usually big money involved with &#8216;environmental&#8217; schemes nowadays. ◊ TIR NATUR: WHO&#8217;S WHO? I&#8217;ve written about this outfit a few times in recent years.

We&#8217;ll meet again that Nazi-origined, anti-humanity crew of Globalist schemers in WWF, but also some interesting new faces.

Local farmers and others up against those with more money and political clout, with the twist being the environmental angle. The Crown Estate is involved, and we also encounter that ultimate expression of the environmental scam &#8211; &#8216;natural capital&#8217;, which puts &#8230; <p><a href="https://jacothenorth.net/blog/commoners-toffs-envirogrifters/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">Commoners, Toffs, Envirogrifters</span></a></p>]]></description>
