Look at those eyes!

It is almost like you lot have missed the point. Don't you understand? The Minister for Homelessness was going to make a much larger profit from evicting her tenants and charging her new tenants a much higher rent.

Labour were elected to protect the environment actually PricedOut. “We will protect and enhance our precious green spaces and natural environment, supporting biodiversity recovery and climate resilience.” Is a direct quote from the manifesto

An extraordinary underestimate of the catastrophic impact of #climate breakdown by 2050 Forget food being a bit more expensive, increasing analysis suggests we will be very lucky to still have a functioning global society and economy www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Only a matter of time before a wildfire wipes a major city from the face of the planet Will people sit up and take notice then? Will governments and fossil fuel corporations act to slash emissions? Will they hell www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

There are already 3 new housing dev along this road - people objected to this as it encroached on farmland adjacent to Battle Abbey site but they promised affordable housing🤔 @explorerdale.bsky.social BBC News - Developer freed of affordable housing commitment www.bbc.com/news/article...

so why is this Government not doing more to protect our dwindling natural resourses but instead threatening with more destruction with their planning policy? @danicapriest.bsky.social @explorerdale.bsky.social BBC News - NHS using nature to treat poor mental health www.bbc.com/news/article...

You may recall I collected my 88 yr old neighbour from hospital at 10.00 PM last night. We were assured that a carer would visit today. Yeah right! The only person to visit was my wife and a good thing she did too. The Govt has to get a grip.

And this is the party that claims to be on the side of nature Utter bollox - as usual - from Starmer & Co. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

A close-up of hedge woundwort to brighten your day. Bees and other pollinators love this wildflower, native to Europe and western Asia. Rewilding gives 1,000s of wild species – and, equally importantly, all the connections between them – the chance to thrive. 🌍

"Between January and May, China added 198 GW of solar and 46 GW of wind, enough to generate as much electricity as Indonesia or Turkey" Just astonishing Shows what can be done when the will is there www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

I think the way Dems should play this is genuinely to make Hegseth apologize for denigrating Operation Overlord

Here's that bit in "Love Actually" where the plucky British PM stands up to the bullying POTUS. Can we please clone a few Hugh Grants and install them as the Leaders of Australia, the UK and Canada. This would be most helpful. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. #FuckTheUSA

Left: David Lammy announces that British Israelis are being evacuated from Israel because of the threat from Iran Right: That time British Palestinians were abandoned by the UK under Rishi Sunak, unable to leave Gaza, because Israel which was (and is still bombing Gaza) wouldn't let them leave

I have no words to express my utter disgust at the shit that’s just spewed out of Starmer’s mouth.

Very sorry to see I was right on this. We're in extremely dangerous, unknown territory now, with two nuclear-armed terrorist militaries attacking another sovereign nation unprovoked. Their message to the world? Might is right.

Labour pledged to ban trail hunting in their 2024 manifesto. Now, campaigners await action — calling for tougher laws & urgent timelines.

"If it is warm in the days after the solstice, they will produce more flower buds the following spring, leading to a bumper crop of beech nuts in the autumn. If it’s cool they might produce none – a phenomenon known as masting" Miraculous nature Marvellous 😊 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

They're really going to do it. After murdering millions of people in Iraq based on lies, The same people are gearing up to murder god only knows how many more people in Iran based on lies.

Absolutely despicable In addition to being incompetent, in thrall to the rich and powerful, and politically inept, this woman has now been caught making deals with foreign oil corporations She has to go www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

"A large part of what I do in my actual dayjob is cut waste in spending... So when politicians claim to be hunting waste while refusing to show their working, when they make dramatic claims without providing evidence, when they turn efficiency into entertainment – that’s not reform."

Netanyahu complaining Iran has hit a hospital in Israel where there are children and babies. Did he think of the Palestinians when saying this?

🚨🚨God, in pure hysterical delusional 'Telegraph' style Sean Thomas has mastered the craft of writing one of the worst columns of the week. Needless to say, 1) No, #bluesky is far from dying, 2) #Twitter/X is nastier than everything on social media (excluding the porn sites).

Imagine: a wealthy newcomer with Taco’s🌮 $5M Gold Card💳 casually buys up what used to be your National Forest🌲—now carved into luxury plots, thanks to the land sale💲 mandate buried in his Big Beautiful Bill. No history, no roots, just money and permission to claim what once belonged to everyone.

This makes sense: Israel is very unlikely to have launched a war on Iran without Trump's backing. Extremely worrying, since it increases the probability that the US will also start bombing Iran. Mad times.

Banks pledge almost a trillion £ in fossil fuel investment Everyone involved in these deals is complicit in murder As I have mentioned a few times, the world is now going backwards, as corporations and governments turn away from #climate action Desperate times www.theguardian.com/business/202...

“If you become disabled before next April, you'll get £13.85 a day to pay for someone to help. If you become disabled on May 1, you'll get £7.14 a day. What was insufficient will become farcical” @fleetstreetfox.bsky.social www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

I doubt anyone will see me post, but this needs to be known... if you have a visible following please repost 💙🔥💙 Admitting he wants "his people... aka US " to behave like north Korea for Kim Jong Un.🤬

Quite unbelievable What is this government thinking of? Complicit doesn't even begin to cover it

June 14, 2025 Happy Obama Appreciation Day to all who celebrate! Here is a lovely family picture. They are all so attractive, intelligent, and wholesome. I miss Barack as president. He did an excellent job as leader of the U.S. and the free world. I invite you to repost this.

Today is the 810th anniversary of the Magna Carta. We're proud to care for the place that many see as the birthplace of modern democracy.

Indeed!! #BanSnaresNOW

I grew up on an Irish dairy farm a long time ago. Even then, many farmers suspected that TB outbreaks were mainly caused by illegal cattle movements. But I guess it’s easier to try to pin blame on badgers!

similar, pointless (and cruel) badger culling has been happening in Ireland for many years, and it rarely reaches the news media. www.thejournal.ie/badger-culli...

📽️Here's a film @aoifey.bsky.social and I have been working on for a while. About a slightly off piste topic (for me) - but one that matters. It's about what happened to Leicester in the wake of all those "fast fashion" scandals a few years ago. In short: not good www.youtube.com/watch?v=ArF1...

Why is the state pension triple lock questioned so much? Without it the UK would fall right to the bottom in Europe!

Sizewell C is a waste of public money - £40 billion of it. Nukes are always late and over budget - and make the most expensive electricity we’ve ever known. If we want to get our energy bills down - we have a faster, cheaper, cleaner option - power from the wind and the sun….:)
