We're told one of these land uses is 'productive', while the other is not. But in terms of photosynthetic levels, as well as the production of clean air, water, no flooding, a stable climate, etc, etc, the natural ecosystem wins hands down. As for biodiversity, let's not even go there.

Farage is a man of very little of anything, bar BS. This is a guy whose business (literally) is to ween as much as possible from state funds and extremists. He cares not of how, where or what the repercussions are of his greed. Read this little article… Link! www.euractiv.com/news/belgian...

Yes: there is change in the air, I can smell it People had enough of decades of stagnation and wealth inequality while crooked politicians and their shadowy masters take advantage of ordinary people and the lies of right wing corrupt demagogues are being exposed Brighter days are a'comming! 💚🌈✌️

Just your average Isreali army rapist, the "Most Moral Army In The World", beloved by Sir Keith Genocide Nothing to see here. Move along now.

Wow. The Greens are not just SECOND in this poll. They're now 3 points ahead of Labour - who are fourth. Time for Labour to stand down to stop splitting the anti-Reform vote!

Keir Starmer has just told COP30 in the Amazon: "The Amazon rainforest helps to regulate the climate for every person on earth" So why has the UK Govt refused to invest in Brazil's fund to save tropical rainforests? & why no mention of Britain's temperate rainforests? www.gov.uk/government/s...

Its a psyop weapon to steer people toward right wing extremism.

Pope Leo XIV has condemned Washington's aggressive actions towards Venezuela, stating that "no one wins with violence." The American-born leader of the Catholic Church stated that the US has the right to “defend peace." "But in this case it seems a little different. It increases tensions,” he said.

Starmer is very weak & exposed youtu.be/1MMUT5Z2yYw He will not survive the May elections. We need to be prepared to demand an election and be ready to take to the streets with our time and our efforts to get @greenparty.org.uk & @zackpolanski.bsky.social elected. Cc @greensorganise.bsky.social

Farage 🇷🇺 was savaged in the Commons for lining his pockets with £1m from second jobs while sneering at young workers’ right to a fair wage, a display of hypocrisy so brazen it practically reeked through the chamber. #ukpolitics

Wherever Farage sets his foot, you find fraud.

I'm sorry, but this is straw-grasping bollox Back in the real world, governments are rowing back on green measures and fossil fuel corporations are planning expansion I, and many others expect 2C to be exceeded by 2050 - perhaps even well before www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Reform/Tories hate the Employment Rights Bill as it gives workers a bit more control over their lives. They also moan about how many people are off work, sick and Farage says NMW is too high “being pro-worker is not a barrier to success, but a launchpad to it.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"Pope Leo said Scripture emphasizes the question that will be posed at the end of the world: 'How did you receive the foreigner, did you receive him and welcome him, or not? I think there is a deep reflection that needs to be made about what is happening'..." chicago.suntimes.com/pope-leo-xiv...

Mone firm owes £39 million in back taxes www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Court convicts two donors for illegally diverting £100k to Eurosceptic think tank run by Nigel Farage's girlfriend. She definitely doesn't sound like the sort of person who would get involved with tax fraud on a house purchase.

Zohran Mamdani focused on childcare costs to win the race for New York Mayor, and the UK needs to have the same conversation about how no-cost childcare could help more than just parents. Me for @glamouruk.bsky.social: www.glamourmagazine.co.uk/article/zohr...

Farage, Tice and Reform have made a fortune for themselves as opposition over the last decade. But now the grifters want to make even more cash in government, just like Trump. Problem is, they have no policies beyond hate, division and constant scapegoating. Their corruption will be PPE on steroids!

Stop. Policing. Poppies. That's. Not. What. Remembrance. Is. About.

Honest answers. Authenticity and principles. Unwavering focus on the many. Reclaiming our rights from the 1%. Meeting people where they are. Fighting inequality in all its forms. Offering hope and unity over fear and division. This is how we win. It’s happening 🚀

This is deeply disappointing from Starmer. The UK *helped design* this 'TFFF' fund, designed to stop deforestation, and supposedly 'continues to back the fund' (in theory). But now isn't putting any money into it 🤯 How embarrassing for the UK. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Did you know you pay more fuel tax on a single car journey than a billionaire does on a private jet flight? Right now the gov is subsidising tax breaks, when they could be using that tax to generate billions for public services. Help us change this: https://bit.ly/43NAeFN

Salmon farming - as unacceptable on animal welfare and environmental terms as all other types of #FactoryFarming www.telegraph.co.uk/business/202...

Today in Parliament, I asked the Secretary of State why food & farming are barely covered in the National Curriculum in schools. Young people need to understand where their food comes from & be inspired to consider careers in farming, the environment & food production.

Nigel Farage’s supporters don’t like it when you point out that he’s talking about cutting the minimum wage for young workers. Or that he’s pocketed over £1 MILLION from outside "work” since the election. Because it exposes the truth about this self-styled “man of the people”.

These abominations have nothing to do with farming They are simply industrial-scale torture and death chambers Every single facility should be scrapped and no new ones built www.theguardian.com/environment/...

BBC News bulletins leading on the story of an Algerian man being mistakenly released by the prison service. Funnily enough I don't remember these cases ever leading the bulletins when an average of ten prisoners were mistakenly released a month in the final year of the last Government

Can’t quite believe the Chancellor is seriously considering slashing support for home energy efficiency as a way to cut fuel bills 👀. Locking people into cold & leaky homes which will cost them more to heat & decimating the insulation industry at same time. Total madness 👇
