in which case, we won't return you to parliament. get lost. byeeee

Everyone: "HS2 is awful because it's destroying so much ancient woodland!" Rhododendron: <cough> "Hold my beer, would you?"

Selling Spanish bluebells is messed up and must be banned, but for the Brits this article is a reminder that it’s illegal to sell rhododendron ponticum in Ireland but still perfectly legal to sell in U.K. It’s destroying 822x more ancient woodland than HS2 in full. www.rte.ie/news/2026/05...

Some of you lot shat your pants when @zackpolanski.bsky.social suggested considering alternatives to NATO post US withdrawal, going on about how ridiculous that was. Months into the increasing US withdrawal I’d invite @labouruk.bsky.social & Co to wash those pants out and get back to the discussion.

This is completely unnecessary. It’s a silly trip hazard and just causes more difficulty navigating public space. I’ve kept my EVs charged for four years despite not living anywhere and traveling thousands of miles for work some months. Charge whilst you do stuff. It’s fine. I promise you it’s fine.

I’ve been pulling out ticks all weekend and we’re up to about five now. Not my PB (18 at once) and no sign of last year’s Lyme disease symptoms back, but the rule is £100/tick. That means this crowdfunder needs to hit ~£9,000 or there will be ramifications. www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/warleigh-n...

Hey @carolinelucas.bsky.social do you have a response?

Rachel Reeves can’t be forcing all taxpayers to subsidise fossil fuel drivers fossil fuels during a fuel crisis. I am certain she’ll also knock 5p/kWh off public electric chargers, make cheap bus fares, make inner tubes free, and offer discounted carrots for horses.

Amateurs too. No gob cuts, just all back cut. Hope they get fined heavily for criminal damage and public nuisance, and get their chainsaws confiscated.

Alright time for another round of: How Many Ticks You Pulled Out Your Hole This Weekend For Zero Money! If the answer is LESS THAN FIVE, you get to put £20 in this crowdfunder. www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/warleigh-n...

It’s gonna get expensive to be lazy.

Immigration make Britain brilliant

Working my ass off today with a bunch of volunteers. Just looked at my inbox to see if we got any new donors, and nope, we LOST one monthly subscriber. Warleigh Nature Reserve will bankrupt Protect Earth if we don’t get this crowdfunder. Get involved.

This is such a lovely thing to watch in the midst of <waves arms at world in general>, and it's so affirming to know that there are people working so hard to protect and restore areas like this.

Another big weekend on Warleigh Nature Reserve guarding a few hundred trees and strimming trails for the ecology tours starting next week. Want a quick tour of what we’ve done so far? Feast your eyes on this.👇🏼 #rewilding #wetlandrestoration youtube.com/watch?v=9i4B...

Had a rough night sleep in the woods, crawled out of bed and pulled two ticks out (yet to do enough yoga to find the rest) and I’m desperately nailing coffees before volunteers get here in 1.5hrs. At least our new solar horsebox is working and charging my phone as we speak!

Fucked around. Found out. Still wish there was a fine on top because that restocking is only going to cost £7,360 in stuff, and maybe £1,766 in labour if they don’t feel like being on the spade themselves for a few days. www.forestryjournal.co.uk/news/2610956...

Breaking: Baby duckling separated from family yesterday near Bath has been found. Mother and siblings happy.

Greens literally the only party trying to get you Proportional Representation before the next general election so we can finally be done with FPTP.

Now hang on this was meant to be for a mobile anti-milkshake defence system now it’s a reward for Brexit? 🤔

3GW is absolutely massive. 🥳

A guy made an app that analyzes pictures of its users' poop ostensibly for health reasons. He is then turning those photos into a tagged database for AI training that he has been advertising for sale on Reddit: www.404media.co/ai-poop-anal...

How much is Trump's political theater at Guantanamo going to cost? $73 MILLION from taxpayers. That's what the Trump administration told me—up from previous estimates of $40 million. Talk about waste, fraud, and abuse.

Y’all seem really confused about the concept of an advert. If an advert wasn’t there to increase sales, companies wouldn’t spend the money. That definitively means that banning the ads will reduce sales of those items. That’s the whole point. It’s not banning the product, just reducing sales.

“If the global population had emissions as large as the wealthiest 0.1%, temperatures would have risen by 12.2C.” Good thing we’re all broke I guess. www.carbonbrief.org/two-thirds-o...

You want to get rid of speed cameras so that you can speed without getting fined. I want to get rid of speed cameras and instead fill up the road lanes with so much impedimenta that it's impossible to get up a lick of speed and speed cameras would be redundant. We are not the same.

We were told our data would stay under NHS control. But an internal document just revealed the truth: Palantir staff are being granted “unlimited access”. Join us demanding this spy-tech firm gets out of our NHS 👇 goodlaw.social/658abc

Red tape exists for a fucking reason, and as we know in the U.K. from having insanely polluted rivers: destroying nature for a quick quid doesn’t actually improve the economy, it just makes rich twats richer and everyone else worse off. www.politico.eu/article/eu-c...

The Greens won a ward in Birmingham with less than 21% of the vote

A straight swap, Labour for Greens. Brilliant work!

Multiple Anglo countries need proportional representation—it would make elections fairer and block the far-right from winning majorities with far less than a majority of votes. Unlike in the US where the right has many veto points, UK Labour could enact PR with a simple majority if they wanted to

Yesterday was mostly a wood fired sauna at Warleigh Weir and herding some amazing goats. Today was more brush hooks clearing overgrow paths, pulling out ticks, taking a long nap, then still being so tired I tried to pay for an egg sandwich by bonking it with my phone.

First Ever Green Senedd member 🎉 Anthony Slaughter has been elected to the Senedd in Caerdydd Penarth – huge congratulations!

Delighted to be re-elected to St Mary’s in Oxford. Thanks to everyone who voted for me & hope. Also thrilled Oxford has rejected the divisive rhetoric of Reform: 0 Reform Councillors.

When there’s a fuel shortage they tell you to turn down your radiators and boilers. Those with cash don’t. People in poverty have no choice and leave them low forever. Prolonged underheating causes mold and awful health complications. Being able to turn it back up is not a mistake IT’S THE POINT.

Important data point here: “A sharp fall in Labour's performance is accompanied more often by an above average Green performance than it is by a strong Reform performance”. The Greens have already hurt Labour even before any direct gains.

We tried to warn you about Anthropic. Now they're using xAI's ultra-polluting community-killing nightmare data centre to power your toxic claude relationship All the new paid subs from @rutgerbregman.com and @quitgpt.bsky.social's campaign, now powered by Musk 🫠 www.anthropic.com/news/higher-...

Progressive voters abandoned him the moment he said we could not fix decades of austerity defunding the entire public realm by reinstating any funding and we instead had to hope the hallucinating wizard would fix everything. We’ve just been working on replacing him and his goons one at a time since.

The Green Party has complained to the Times newspaper after it published a cartoon "depicting leader Zack Polanski using anti-semitic tropes." The cartoon shows Polanski with a visibly hooked nose, "widely recognised as an element of anti-semitic imagery of Jewish people". They've engaged lawyers.

“Labour will always back you” says man who has already demonstrated the contempt & hatred in which he holds you, your disabled child, your trans sibling, your migrant partner, your Palestinian friends, your nan & your job-seeking parent. Fuck off.

Had a quick look, and despite the stock imagery this does look like it’s native woodland creation on degraded land, not just monoculture for logging replacing previous clear felled or wildfire burned logging. This was honestly surprising and refreshing.

Obviously a good idea and more stadiums should do this.

Car crashes cause 2.4% of all deaths. Bike crashes cause scuffed knees.

As people get ready to vote in the Scottish Parliament election please be careful of the spoiler operation which is 'Independent Green Voice'. They are listed second on the regional ballot paper in South of Scotland with the Green Party further down. IGV is a right-wing spoiler operation.

It’s not a pyramid scheme if it’s a circle.

Enjoyed a brief visit to High Wood, Liskeard, today and met this friendly fellow, Shane, who gave us an impromptu tour! Tasted some English bush tucker along the way. Protect Earth is saving woodlands for future generations thanks to tireless work of @philsturgeon.com and his many volunteers.

Cycling is a lot safer when wearing headphones, because if I can’t hear all the vile (and weirdly often homophobic) abuse being screamed at me I can’t get distracted into a ditch.
