In today's Budget, the Chancellor spoke about building the economy “brick by brick” but left out the very foundation that underpins it all: nature. The same Government that promised to restore our natural world appears instead to have wiped it from their agenda.

@alanstricklandmp.bsky.social @annaturley.bsky.social Labour /Starmer continue to disgust and horrify, probably the worst government in my lifetime. What really matters to the future, a stable climate, environmental improvement, increasing biodiversity. We would be better off in the EU, we need
