In the podcast thread, I claimed that climbers were typically "of a type". That was about how perhaps few American climbers were MAGMA pro-Trump folk.

That brought me to mind of how I was taken aback by how a ukc thread seemed very much of the view that no quarter should be given to GRT people continuing to try and live nomadically as they ancestrally have done. Thread sentiment seemed a fairly "robust" Daily Mail type view point to me. It gave me pause for thought that I may be mistaken in imagining that climbers were typically fluffy-liberal types. https://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/off_belay/height_barriers_-_a_rant-773790?v=1#x9948014
 
Wasn't that how Horseshoe was bought off tarmac for a pound? Under the agreement that the BMC could deal with the travellers squatting there?
