The planet isn't "dying" of natural causes. Forests don't just disappear. They are logged. Oceans don't just choke. They are polluted. Rivers don't just dry up. They are diverted. This is not a tragedy. It's ecocide. And ecocide should be a crime. #StopEcocide

Why isn’t there a total moratorium on all reporting on Reform until after the multiple investigations into their finances have been completed? Free propaganda for potentially corrupt liars should be banned. It might make them think twice before breaking rules and taking the piss out of all of us.

There are wars in Ukraine, Sudan & Iran/Gaza/ Hormuz Climate change, wildfires in urban areas in UK, USA is doing what USA does in Trump-World & there is a UK government doing actual governing in UK Still, a made up number from Reform, without any foundation or evidence, is “front page” for the BBC

On Monday, Reform will parade their fantasy plan to cut £50 billion in welfare - including stopping PIP benefits for all but the most severely disabled - to distract us from scrutiny of Farage's finances. We should not be distracted. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

In all seriousness, let's talk about #tickawareness #lymeawareness & #coinfections more often. If it takes a red meat allergy to take the exploding tick population seriously, at least it's something. We need a(n ecologically sound) way to decimate the tick population. Ticks destroy lives.

American ticks are invading Canada including the lone star tick causing people to become allergic to red meat. These are Trump's ticks. He's not doing enough to keep them from crossing our border. Until he fixes this problem it's time for BIG tariffs on American products. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Yesterday, while tidying my tomato jungle in the greenhouse, I found this. Apparently it's a 'megabloom' a tomato flower where multiple flowers grow together. I missed it in full flower but can see 3 tiny tomatoes coming from the one flower. 🍅🌱 #gardening #tomatoes #inthegreenhouse

This is just disgusting. Today is about honouring the Allied forces - their sacrifices & their bravery. The message should be how much good we can do when we work together. To bastardise history in this divisive way is beyond disrespectful.
