Palestinian civilians are being slaughtered by Israel's F-35 jets.

Britain is supplying crucial components for those murderous fighter jets.

Don’t let the EU tear down nature protection ❌

The European Commission is quietly trying to dismantle the laws that safeguard what we cherish most: our nature.

They think we wouldn’t notice or care. But we do.
