After all, why should birds and other mammals have all the fun? Help us choose new collective nouns for 4 of our UK bat species! What should we call a group of common pipistrelles, noctules, Daubenton's bats or brown long-eared bats?

(1/2) 🦇 A group of bats can be called a colony, a cauldron, a cloud or even a camp but with 1,500 bat species worldwide (and 18 right here in the UK!), we think it’s time to get a little more imaginative.

Mexico City’s loss was Penarth’s gain last night. At the inimitable @tedkravitz.bsky.social ‘s book launch event, where I even won the prize for best question of the night. Thank you Ted for great insight and thanks to Griffin Books for organising a great event. Here’s to ‘made up’ jobs!

Donald Trump is ramping up his trade wars and crashing the global economy. He's not sparing the UK from his new tariffs, so why should we give him with a second state visit? Join more than 200,000 of us and add your name to he petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...
No second state visit for Trump
Unbelievable. Keir Starmer has handed Donald Trump a letter from King Charles, inviting him for a second state visit to the UK. It’s totally unprecedented, and should not go ahead.
