I’m sad to hear the news that the wonderful Jane Goodall is no longer in the world. Her work with chimpanzees at Gombe in Tanzania taught us to look at other apes - and ourselves - differently. I was privileged to meet her later in life and tell her what an inspiration she was to me.

This is so grim — Ghana has become a “fast fashion graveyard” with 15 million items of discarded clothing dumped there every single week. And the worst contributor is the UK! Clothes made by companies like M&S are dumped

This Friday, MPs will vote on the assisted dying Bill.
It all comes down to this - Tag your MP and ask them to vote yes.
If it passes, the Bill continues its journey in the House of Lords - if not, it falls.
This could be our last chance to secure a compassionate law.
