The chalk stream amendment 38 of the Planning and Infrastructure Bill just got voted down in the HoL, and 40 ( protected species) was withdrawn.
I can’t tell you how truly devastating this is for nature in our country, on land and in our waterways

There isn’t a word to describe how disgusted I am.

This poor bastard is so desperate to be funny, to be liked…

The man literally has it in his gift for us to fall in love with him

To help humanity and solve global problems in way that no one else can

…and instead he’s pissing about with this?

ITV Evening News had another few seconds of this interview, where he says it’s “banter on a playground”

Farage starts to say “But, isn’t it funny…”

ITV: “Okay, so you did say stuff to these people then?”

NF: “I've never directly racially abused anybody. No.”

What was funny, Nigel? 🤔

Sir Robbie Gibb says he has ‘no intention of resigning’

Then the the public who pay the BBC honcho responsible for ‘impartiality’, having been an early founder of GB News, owner of the Jewish Chronicle when its standards evaporated, should make sure he’s sacked. What a rip off

Farage is speaking at Venue Cymru tonight.

Last revamped in 2018 with £1.8 million of EU development money and another £1 million in business development cash.

Original development also received significant EU funding.

Farage, by contrast, will give Llandudno nothing but hot air and lies.

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

Panic is spreading across Russian monitoring channels as reports claim a massive drone wave, up to 150 UAVs, is heading toward occupied Crimea from the sea, launched from the direction of Odesa.

Alerts are being issued for Sevastopol and surrounding areas, fearing a coordinated swarm attack.

Prescott keeps repeating "I thought they'd show a programme about Harris the week after". He really doesn't understand the difference between balance, impartiality and objectivity.

I'd like to see the response to this if the question added "if that that means universities have less money to spend on UK students".
With Rachel Reeves reportedly set to apply a new tax on tuition fees paid by overseas students, most Britons support such a move at the previously mooted level of 6%

Support: 57%
Oppose: 18%
