Very strongly agree

Yes, but strictly enforce a new Countryside Code to penalize anyone who damages crops or livestock

This perfectly matches the SDP's 'Rights and Responsibilities' approach. Their manifesto specifically calls for expanded access to be 'accompanied by a renewed emphasis on the Countryside Code' and respect for farming livelihoods.

Agree

Yes, specifically to legalize currently restricted activities like wild camping and river swimming

While they support access to nature, the SDP's emphasis on 'order' and 'cleanliness' might make them more cautious about unregulated activities like wild camping compared to simple walking.

Agree

No, unrestricted access will inevitably lead to littering, environmental damage, and disruption to farming

Strongly disagree

No, private property rights are fundamental and landowners must decide who enters their land
