Let's stop pretending that the billionaire media, endlessly attacking the BBC, has the slightest interest in balance, impartiality and accuracy. They won't be happy until the BBC is more rightwing than Vlad the Impaler. And then it still won't be enough.

www.bbc.co.uk/news/article... Guess what? Sewage spread on land for fertiliser is not being tested properly for contaminants, including forever chemicals and plastics. Previous ministers failed to tackle this. Light or no touch approach to regulation has put health and environment at serious risk.

A tiny wealth tax on the super-rich would raise billions and boost the economy. Billions we could spend investing in our public services and reducing inequality. It really is that simple.

Cutting edge - creating features in trees for bats with Notts Bat Group @nottswildlife.bsky.social www.sustainablegarden.co.uk/blog-posts/f...

Reminder - it is the longtime policy of @TheGreenParty to abolish Ofsted. We need education for life, not schools forced to become #ExamFactories www.theguardian.com/education/20...

'Our Nature Restoration Fund will speed up the building of the new infrastructure and homes across the country' How about some nature restoration to...er...restore #nature? We are a seriously nature depleted country in a nature depleting world. Your dept is #environment.

Succinct and cogent. New runways are a big mistake.

It’s hardly hypocrisy to call for system reform…:) www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

The worst offenders are big US firms that turn over billions here and pay peanuts in tax, like Amazon - undercutting the high street, partly because they can avoid paying tax - it’s a loophole Labour needs to close. We need an online retail tax based on turnover to avoid the accounting games.

This is what we need more of, @teamlabouruk.bsky.social, not development!

Whereas the commercial abuse of farmers by supermarkets is a much tougher nut to crack. I call on supermarkets to put their money where their warm words are - pay farmers a decent rate for the food they produce.

A truly awful response from government to the petition to ban driven grouse shooting. It reads like it was written by the shooting estates themselves - full of unsupported guff and non-sequiturs. The power of landed interests in this country seems unbreakable.

Why is our taxpayer's money going to the Royals in so many ways? Empty Dartmoor prison pays Prince William’s Duchy £1.5m a year & has another 24 years left on its lease Charities which the Royals are patrons of also pay millions to them in rent Make it make sense www.thetimes.com/article/ddf3...

Great to see this extensive coverage in The Mirror on my #BiocidesBill - addressing #AMR, #Microbiotoxicity and environmental damage

Today in my coastal biology class, we listened to this beautiful climate change song calling to protect our oceans from the Greenpeace Artic stage. Seeing the students mesmerized and moved by this performance gives me hope for a healthier planet! youtu.be/4N-fqm2YLAU?...

Monty Don’s fascination with posh gardening and privilege is evidenced once again, this time in his series about British gardens… 🙈

River Trent,Nottinghamshire this morning with a “bit of water on” on you’d say if you were a fisherman.

Tonight, a vigil outside HMP Eastwood Park marks Gaie Delap’s 78th birthday. A grandmother and climate campaigner, unfairly imprisoned for her activism. She should be celebrating at home, not imprisoned for standing up for a liveable planet.

As deadly wildfires rage in LA, news comes that the world has breached the 1.5 degree limit on warming - the limit that would have prevented the most deadly effects of the climate crisis UK needs to show leadership by ending ALL new fossil fuel drilling www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

'2024 first year to pass 1.5C global warming limit' So more of the extreme #wildfires as in #LosAngles, more extreme storms, floods, droughts, heatwaves...are set to come, with more #climatechaos and #climatebreakdown. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
