Labour are backtracking on a plan to help save birds: by blocking a new rule that would make developers put a £35 nest brick in every new home. They think it'll help win them votes - we need to show it would do the opposite. Sign the petition 38d.gs/ky2i
Sign the petition: Save Our Swifts
Swifts have lost more than half their population in 20 years. A simple £35 brick in new builds could help save them. Labour used to support this – now they’re planning to backtrack. Sign the petition ...

Interesting isn't it that a man (Elon Musk) who has 14 children with 4 different women, but doesn't look after any of them is fine.

If this were Just Stop Oil, there'd have been dozens of arrests, furious denunciations in the billionaire press and, perhaps, long jail sentences. Farmers have a right to protest, and the police respect it. Other people, it seems, not so much.

Senior Hamas officials says the ceasefire with Israel could collapse, Agence France-Presse reports.

It’s been under strain since Trump’s lunatic notion of America taking over Gaza.

Are you clock watching in the office? It will soon be home time. Why not pretend you are working on the computer but really have a browse through the Higgledy 2025 cut flower garden seed collection?

In January 20, 1961, the temperature at noon was 22 degrees and 8 inches of snow had fallen in the morning.

John F. Kennedy still had his inauguration on the steps of the Capitol.

The oil, gas, gold, uranium, lithium, lead, platinum and many other rare resources on Greenland are valued at over $50tn.
