Flamingos in Spain

View from Mama Spencer’s house in Spain -I haven’t been for a while. The road up there is a bastard.

Crispin Blunt is a multimillionaire who was an MP for 27 years this fine is like a £50 fine for you. An absolute joke. On top of this he was the Justice Minister, an example should have been made. Clearly it was the usual one, crime doesn't exist for the rich.

⚡️☀️ UK renewable power just hit record levels, with our solar & wind fleet producing 34 gigawatts around midday yesterday! At the same time, gas-fired output dropped to just over a gigawatt 🔽 1/4 eciu.net/media/press-...

If you were caught with a class A drug, one of the rarest and most dangerous in the UK. You wouldn't just get a fine.

Hope this big bastard doesn’t chime every hour. I’ll never get to sleep.

Seriously loud air noise wanging around above my house -none of it on the radar -it’s making me feel nervous. Saw 3 strato tankers on the radar earlier on -made a huge noise flying together.

Im going to enjoy watching Reforms dodgy funding streams coming to an abrupt halt.

In just over a decade, Chile went from no utility-scale wind or solar at all to having more electricity from these sources than from all fossil fuels combined: In 2000, wind+solar provided 0% of Chile's electricity, fossil fuels 45%.By 2025, wind+solar had risen to 36%, fossil fuels fallen to 28%.

I highly recommend this documentary which highlights how seriously endangered European eels are still being fished in the R. Severn and exported for food involving criminal gangs.

Spring is here -a few snaps from my phone this week

The Human Rights Activists News Agency, an Iran-focused human rights monitoring organisation operating outside Iran, has documented at least 1,394 civilians killed in Iran by the US–Israel illegal War of Aggression, including 210 children, 15% of the casualties.

Perhaps there's a silver lining to the current war. The US has been living off Hollywood-fuelled exceptionalism since WWII - "Go, go, USA", "America is Number 1", etc. - but thanks to a failed reality TV star, its citizens are now catching a glimpse of reality: the American dream is not universal.

I’ve started to love going to training sessions at the gym. It’s addictive. I felt like the 45 min sessions went on forever before now I’m a bit sad when they end. I’m still a bit overweight but I feel I’m getting stronger. I want a strong core and after hitting 60 It’s become important to me.

Bring back smoking & lets torture wildlife. See Reform for what they are.

Chesil Beach in Dorset, the sea and beautiful cloud formations. 18 miles long and part of the Jurassic Coast. This is the Portland end where the pebbles are largest. They reduce in size gradually as they go further west. #AlphabetChallenge #WeekLforLayers #Dorset #Coastal #Landscape #Photography

Lock up anyone who aided, or covered up for, Epstein. (That should rid the world of most of the Republican party.)

Who uses crypto to donate to political parties? Russia as it’s anonymous. Who opposes legislation to ban crypto donations? Reform.

Badenoch and Farage are bought and owned by the fossil fuel industry, protecting the planet swept away by the desire to protect their own pockets. bsky.app/profile/writ...

Trump said that if Kamala Harris wins, she’ll start a war in six months. Trump started six wars in six weeks.

Morning all. Just read a pre-emptive post about fuel rationing at the pump due to Trump's war. Typically, the squabbles over who deserves to get petrol the most had already begun. It was like fighting over supermarket bog roll during COVID. The human race never fails to amaze me 🤭

Crispin Odey denies trying to ‘manipulate into silence’ victim of sexual assault ft.trib.al/Tm79V4M

I’m fascinated by random rules different religions force on their followers -rules made up by men in the past that have no relevance to the way we live today.

Two Democrats flipped seats in Florida, while the Trump-endorsed North Carolina Senate leader conceded defeat in his primary race.

About time too!

To make buildings net zero doesn't mean demolition or new builds. It's about harnessing technology and design to retrofit what's already here.

‘Seriously wrong’: flood-hit Lincolnshire residents at odds with Reform MP over climate

Landmark polling suggests the NHS is finally on the long road to recovery.

trump is bragging that Iran sent him a big gift and he won't say what. If true, Iran figured him out. Bribes work for him. Policies, morality, or what is best for America do not work.

Same.

You could write this….

It's not like anything's happening overseas at the moment, is it?

Contrary to what anti vax people say parents did not hold measles parties etc - they dreaded diseases

Just installing our new Dino 🦕 exhibition.

Can farage take us anymore backwards...... Next week it'll be hanging. The week after he'll scrap the 'woke' ban on burning witches. Ffs.

It's not been a good few days for the right wing parties in Europe, the extreme right in France did not make the gains they expected and now Meloni with the referendum defeat of her policies now looks vulnerable. www.politico.eu/article/ital...

I just watched about 12 minutes of the Melania movie thing and it was mainly about a coat. 🥱 Life is too short. I need a coffee because I’m going into a coma. *switches off* -I think I’ll do a bit of painting instead.

Pakistan joins a growing list of countries acting as go-betweens for the U.S. and Iran, four sources tell NBC News, with two of those sources saying an in-person meeting could be held in the coming days in Islamabad, the Pakistani capital.

Cold and Mizzle blowing up the estuary today -some big old gusts -I put the heating on a bit earlier because I couldn’t get warm. 🥶 🌧️

After complaining to South West Water about a weirdly massive water bill and having a new meter put in my monthly payment has dropped by almost £40. Deeply suspicious. Daughter had same issue at her house.

The Take Back Water campaign has seen thousands of people vow they will not pay their water bill until the government returns water to public ownership.

About 70% of the U.S. economy runs on consumer spending. But as wealth concentrates at the top, the richest 10% can’t spend enough to sustain it — while everyone else can’t afford to. Reminder that trickle-down economics simply doesn’t make sense. It’s a hoax.

The estate has been the seat of the Lascelles family since 1738.

Trump's coalition in tatters as new poll shows huge Dem gains with key groups

The corruption and insider trading is just blatant.

At least 100,000 Israeli forces have amassed at Lebanon's southern border. They destroyed the Qasimiyah Bridge over the Litani River as President Joseph Aoun warns it is a prelude to a ground invasion.

Iran denies that they've spoken to Trump and said he stopped attacking them due to their threats, and Israel is angry at Trump because he stopped the attacks on Iran.
