| Abstract: | An unseasonably cold summer breeze is blowing through the bracken on Dartmoor as a pony foal gets shakily to its feet. Nearby, its mother grazes peacefully, twisting and pulling at clumps of grass. Both seem blissfully unaware that they are at the centre of a row that has seen the beleaguered Prime Minister labelled "Keir Starmer Pony Harmer", has led to calls for the quango Natural England to be "culled", and has forged an unlikely allegiance between the Tories, Reform and the Liberal Democrats.
