Donald Trump sparked outrage with his shocking display of bullying at the Oval office meeting with Ukraine’s President Zelensky. Now, over 150,000 of us are calling to cancel his second UK state visit - will you join the backlash too? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

Hartland moor is open and lovely.

We are getting obsessive news about Donald Trump which is panicking a lot of people. There are other problems and wars in Africa and Asia and Eastern Europe. Calm down and think deep.
