One of our favourite clips from 2025.

🔥 In case you missed it...Munya nailed it on Newsnight. 🔥

The root of Britain's problems is inequality, not immigration. And the only minority responsible are the greedy, selfish super-rich.

Stuff made by HUMANS that I've enjoyed this year. Post #3.

The Cuckoo’s Lea by @drmjwarren.bsky.social. Well written, evocative, and wears its erudition very lightly!

We have been bringing the festive cheer to our friends at Natural England and the NFU in London recently – highlighting the continued badger cull.

240,000 badgers dead and nothing to show for it. It must end.

Animals all around the country are being killed using catapults that have been easily bought in shops and online. We need to ban the sale of catapults to those under the age of 18 to stop these horrific killings. Add your name now: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/en...

A lovely endorsement of my book. Thanks @penrhynbirder.bsky.social! 😁
Birds, etymology, Medieval history and a touch of cartography. All my geeky enthusiasms between two beautifully illustrated covers. Above everything, it's about place: ours and theirs.

Bravo, @drmjwarren.bsky.social, so well explained.

One day, perhaps someone will do the same for Cymru...

Shooting hares will finally be banned for most of the year, and a ban on trail hunting will be announced Monday as part of a package of animal welfare measures

Will the govt also move to ban or license grouse & pheasant shooting…?

UEFA fines Maccabi and bans them from a game

Just waiting for Keir Starmer to say it's antisemitic

For Shamaba Mahmood to join him

And for Lisa Nandy to lie about it in parliament

Shame on all three of them for conflating public safety with antisemitism
