    crude imitation of the old gentrified English idea of “you look rich and successful if you have carefully maintained grass instead of edible crops on your property”

    American lawn culture makes gardens that look awful. A country estate’s garden is supposed to be a work of art. this is what it’s supposed to look like

    My local aristocrat would be embarresed if his sheep were seen on a garden that looks like this

        not to praise this aristocrat you understand, the EU gives him all the rural support money because he owns all the land and he spends it all on his Hitler painting collection. Well gave he shall have to find some other way of paying for Hitler paintings now

        which is a big part of why I think the EU’s rural areas support didn’t really work in Britain as it was designed for countries where more rural people actually own land
