From the London Times:

Ministers quietly abandon ‘green crap’ as focus shifts to food security
Boris Johnson has scaled back plans to rewild the country as the government retreats from the green agenda to focus on the cost-of-living crisis.

Ministers last year announced a post-Brexit scheme that would pay farmers up to £800 million a year — a third of the farming budget — to transform agricultural land into nature-rich forests, coastal wetlands, peatlands and wildflower meadows.

But the fund, called the landscape recovery scheme, has been quietly slashed to just £50 million over three years, less than 1 per cent of the budget.

The policy change is a significant victory for the farming lobby, which had opposed diverting money from food production.

The rest of the article is behind a paywall.  Love the 'green crap' line - that is all that it is.  Cultural Marxism gussied up as science.  Glad to see them starting to focus on what is important.
