David Attenborough is right, “if we continue on our current path, we will face the collapse of everything.” We know what we need to do, it’s the corruption & lies of the fossil fuel companies & our leaders that makes extinction more likely. We need zero emissions within 5yrs!

They want to torch our human rights framework AND repeal our right to protection from discrimination.

Farage is clearly misleading the public.
The main reason that net migration fell by 445,000 (year to June 2025 it was 205k, having been 649k a year before) is that immigration fell by 401,000.
The BBC should fact-check/verify and report that this was untrue.
