What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country?

Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide.

It undermines police and the law.

Today was about dodging the showers to enjoy this fine view over Loch Rannoch from Craig Varr, Kinloch Rannoch, Perthshire.

Stop worrying about bats and newts? No Rachel Reeves MP – start worrying about the future of our economy if we tear down the nature it depends on.

Nature isn’t a blocker; it’s the foundation of growth.

Success – an important win for nature! 🐝

Today, the UK Government made the only sensible choice - listening to the science and upholding the ban on neonicotinoids.

This pesticide doesn’t belong in our countryside. Farmers now need support to adopt nature-friendly alternatives.
Just 1 teaspoon of neonicotinoids can kill 1.25 BILLION bees.

Yesterday, over 1 million voices told the UK Government: stop allowing banned pesticides in our countryside.

DEFRA, it’s time to end ‘emergency’ use.

Protect pollinators vital to nature's recovery & our food security.

Within 24 hours, the temperature has climbed 20 degrees C and all of this has gone.

The Daily Mail has never been pro-British- it has always been pro-fascist.

The Daily Mail is owned by the 4th Viscount Rothermere, passed on from 3rd, 2nd & 1st Viscounts. It’s been a tool of hereditary power & privilege undermining our democracy.

Musk & Trump excite them to take their mask off.

Some people in recent days have alleged a ‘cover-up’ over the grooming & rape of hundreds of young girls in predominantly northern UK towns, leading to calls for a ‘national’ public inquiry into child sexual exploitation

FWIW here’s a non-exhaustive list of inquiries into #CSE in last 12 yrs…

Glorious weather in the northeast Highlands today. Just perfect for a long walk to stretch the legs after being cooped up for the festive season.

The snow faerie has paid us a visit in West Shinness, Sutherland for the first time this year. There is nothing better than walking up to a landscape transformed from ochre, sun and grey to golden-hued pastel shades and a sky full of fire…

Meet ‘Rocky’, our latest resident hare, whose idea of a productive day is to sit in the middle of the rockery for hours on end.

Garden hare… every home should have one…
