Trump is going to make Ozempic more expensive for Americans because Denmark won’t give him Greenland. (I can’t believe I just typed that sentence out.)

We've loaded all the information from the sampling, carried out last year by groups including @cleanilkley.bsky.social @thames21.bsky.social @savewindermere.bsky.social onto our Watershed Pollution Map: bit.ly/4fOEb0n so you can have a look-see what's in your local bathing site.
