It was Sydney Carter and he would have written it around then. If no one else can find it, I could probably chase it down.

It's based on a real headline - the people in charge of Epping Forest said they were tryi g to cull a white deer that had been spotted in the Forest, because it would screw up the genetic purity of the herd. Sydney used it as a dig at racism.

I don't know what happened in the end to the deer. I was driving home last night through Epping Forest and I saw a deer standing by the side of the road, and it looked brown enough.
