Any chance of extending to a bit older? Say another 60 years or so? theguardian.com/politics/2024/…

55 Tufton Street home of tax dodging, fake charity billionaires, who bought you Liz Truss, crashed the economy and profited from it.

They shouldn't even exist, but you pay for them with Gift Aid they claim from Government on donations.

Shut them DOWN.

Shrill in name, but its path to British extinction is quiet and typical of the slow death of Britain's nature. Yet, defra and National Farmers' Union continue with a mad intensification of agriculture (e.g. 'emergency' derogation for banned neonictinoid). theguardian.com/environment/20…

National Park Authorities have no statutory mechanism to restore nature. Instead, agriculture has destroyed them. These are paper parks not National Parks.

It's new role day today! Starting a secondment as Biodiversity Net Gain Manager, still with Northumberland Wildlife Trust. Got the daunting task of setting up our BNG offer, will be learning lots of new things 🤯

For climate resilience, nature recovery and ecosystem health, we need beavers back in our rivers - and soon! Happy #InternationalBeaverDay

My instinct is to work alongside the good people managing moors. But ... the evidence is so damming. Grouse moors must be licensed. Any evidence of illegal persecution on a grouse moor should lead to licence revocation for that grouse moor. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Can I have a basic income too? We’ve all struggled after #brexit - cost of living crisis is huge. Outrageous proposal from some farmers. theguardian.com/environment/20…

It's not about idealogy - privatising public monopolies makes no sense and has been a disaster. The sewage scandal is the tip of the iceberg. Witness the daily train cancellations; NHS collapse (which is now largely privatised); HS2 lunacy and on and on....theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Time for a clear indication from Government that licence applications for free-living beavers will be favourably received Defra UK Natural England. Beaver Trust The Wildlife Trusts gov.uk/government/new…

Enough! Time for a radical review of the water industry. Not convinced the ⁦Conservatives⁩ can deal with this. ⁦The Labour Party⁩? theguardian.com/business/2024/…

HUGE NEWS!! This is THE moment Scotland banned snares, licensed grouse moors and muirburn and implemented restrictions on brutal wildlife traps. By doing so, the government has taken a stand against wildlife crime.

A huge congratulations to all involved. Feeling quite emotional…

What better way to celebrate #WorldRewildingDay than to watch a bunch of baby #WildBoar in the Forest of Dean – where boar are back after centuries of absence – taking it in turns to jump over a puddle?
(Sound UP) 🐗🐗🐗

In most of these rural constituencies that Rishi Sunak seeks to retain, the eNGOs (inc. badger-logoed The Wildlife Trusts) have more members than the Conservatives current majority! theguardian.com/environment/20…

Twice this week CrossCountry Trains cancelled trains. The Labour Party if you get in, you have to sort this mess out urgently.

Absolutely delighted that Dorset Wildlife Trust has completed the acquisition of 833 acres of beautiful Dorset countryside at Lyscombe. Working in partnership with Natural England Nutrient Mitigation Scheme and our members and supporters #makingspacefornature #wilderdorsetby2030

Yet another crap journey of Britains train London North Eastern Railway. The cancel train at a whim hits again.

Buy this book; and understand how our ancestors wiped out one of the most vital species that ever existed here, the wolf. They tortured and eradicated them with pure hatred and cruelty. We will not heal our warped relationship with nature until we learn to live alongside wolves.
