Eel smuggling was in the news again yesterday, and I got some questions. Like: "WFT?" & "Why? & "How?" So let's take a look. Eel smuggling is maybe the biggest wildlife crime going. It's a c. 4 billion a year black market industry. Interpol has called it "Europe's ivory trade." 1/7

We tracked down the superyacht owned by the world’s sixth richest man. Larry Ellison won’t like what we did to it 🛥️🏴‍☠️

This may be the most powerful 85 seconds I've ever seen on television.

Palantir is burrowing into the heart of the UK's institutions - our health, our defence, our finances. Join me in telling the govt to send this dangerous company packing: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

Countless Iranians have died. UK bases being targeted. Energy bills will skyrocket. The British people are against the UK involvement in this war. A vote in Parliament is needed now and it's what Starmer promised when running for leader and pretending he was progressive.

The aurora at Embleton Quarry Nature Reserve this morning. Lying on the pond dipping platform looking up at the stars is the most relaxing thing I've done in a long time ! Such a peaceful place, with lovely dark skies. ✨ #AuroraBorealis #NorthernLights #DarkSkies

BREAKING: Green leader Zack Polanski says the war in Iran is 'illegal' '18 days ago the US and Israel launched an illegal bombing campaign in Iran' 'This was not a war of self-defence. There was no imminent threat'

The future of UK Astronomy & Particle Physics is at risk from proposed 30% funding cuts that, if implemented, will be "genuinely catastrophic". Great to see this detailed BBC report on the issue by @pallabg.bsky.social 🔭🧪⚛️ #STFCcuts #SaveUKAstronomy 🗞️: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

King Charles is set to meet Trump next month to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the US. Trump is conducting an illegal war on Iran – the King’s visit would serve as a statement of support for this illegal war. It must not go ahead. stoptrump.org.uk/petition-no-...

Got to love a gannet. Beautiful birds and Bempton is a wonderful place to see them up close.

Palantir has no place in our NHS. The Labour government must get this Mandelson and Trump backed company out now. Listen to what health workers are saying. news.sky.com/story/nhs-ho...

Ossoff: "The WH put out a video depicting this war as a video game. When service members are returning in flag-draped coffins, & even more have lost limbs or suffered brain injuries or are fighting for their lives, this WH treats war like a game. It's a disgrace. And it speaks to a moral rot."

NEW MoD sources warn Palantir’s role at heart of government is threat to UK’s security. One said: "Ministers clearly have a lack of understanding of Palantir’s technology" Investigation by Charlie Young @charlienotold.bsky.social Report by Charlie Young and @carolecadwalla.bsky.social 🧵 1/7

US bombers loading up on UK airstrips before raining down bombs on Iran. Parliament wasn't consulted - and polling shows huge numbers oppose it. When do MPs get a say over our involvement in this war? www.forbes.com/sites/peters...

There's a story every day trying to talk about why the Green Party is no longer "Green." Protecting our environment means lower bills, warmer homes, unionised jobs. Every day our membership rises & we're winning. People are increasingly connecting the dots. Join.greenparty.org.uk

It's looking increasingly like these guys thought that if they could wreak more death and destruction than the other side then they would be respected as strong powerful men and they would "win" and that would make them big important heroes. Very possibly they had no rationale deeper than that.

New in PN: The bombing of Iranian children is an unforgivable crime "American disinterest in the lives of people abroad is a resource politicians use to justify cynical wars. It's hard to see on what moral grounds we claim a right to decide the fate of those about whom we clearly care so little."

Over 1000 civilians dead, and we're letting Trump use UK bases to further his war. Britain should stand firm against Trump's illegal warmongering, and stop these bombers landing on UK soil.

Dear Shabana, Let's clear some things up around migration and remember we're talking about people's lives.

A lobbyist who worked directly for Peter Mandelson, on the Palantir board, and on the board of *four* NHS trusts. Lobbying the NHS to hand over even more patient data to Palantir. This absolutely stinks. Get Palantir out of the NHS. Sign my petition: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/st...

The world is going to hell in a handbasket, but stop scrolling for a min. You need to learn about the fish event horizon and eels and stuff.

Many MPs claim to care about nature. Tomorrow afternoon will be the test. On Tuesday 3rd March there will be a debate in Parliament on red lines for nature. We’ll be watching to see who shows up. Empty seats will say a lot. Tell us who you expect to see there tomorrow. 👇

In case you’re just waking up, the U.S. has teamed up with Israel overnight to start an illegal war of regime change, apparently on a presidential whim with no involvement of Congress, and they are already committing horrific atrocities.

The Green Party are also big trouble for Nigel Farage. 👇🏼 youtu.be/heQUwN3jvbA?...

Switched the BBC news on and they're doing a vox pop with an ex Labour now Reform voter. Switched off.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "Once again Reform are spreading misinformation & smears, and the press & the media seem to repeat them.. its really important that the media.. take responsibility so when Reform or Farage says something they don't just keep repeating it"👏👏👏

MASSIVE CONGRATS TO HANNAH SPENCER! Greens win Gorton & Denton by-election. 💚

It's Reform Vs the Green Party. Vote for the Green Party. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

In a few hours in Gorton and Denton - you have the opportunity to transform our politics. A vote for Hannah Spencer & the Green Party will entirely change our national conversation. And Hannah will be brilliant for Manchester. Check her out 👇🏼 youtu.be/uCy0VdHTVvs?...

The Labour government object to us talking about Gaza. Genocide is serious and they should hang their heads in shame for arming it, not complaining to journalists. Not surprised they're distracting from their other failures - like addressing the cost of energy bills and rent.
