Gill’s conviction for taking Kremlin money is yet more evidence of Russian influence in our politics, as the Russia report itself found. So when will Ministers finally investigate this wider interference? Why are we forced to pursue it in court? @carolecadwalla.bsky.social

If the grouse shooting industry are to be believed, Susie probably stamped her own chicks to death before turning the gun on herself.
Oh well. By a happy coincidence, less hen harriers means more red grouse for the toffs to shoot.

Hen Harrier ‘Susie’, whose chicks were stamped to death in 2022, has been found dead on a North Pennines grouse moor with gunshot injuries
If ever there was an example demonstrating the high level of persecution faced by Hen Harriers on UK grouse moors, the lack of consequences for the offenders, and the lack of justice for the victim…

🎯 Davey is spot on. "We can have criticism of the BBC, but within that, we need to recognise how valuable an institution it is [and how] precious to our country. And that's one of the reasons why people like President Trump and Nigel Farage, want to undermine the BBC." 👏🏽~AA

One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power.
The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever.
But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

'Beach at low tide.' Landscapes by Degas are comparatively rare, yet they remain among his most compelling works. He created his first important group of landscapes in 1869, the year this work was made during a trip to the Normandy coast around Cabourg and Villers-sur-Mer.
