Just catching up on the new series of @BBCRadio4#newsquiz & had to switch it off. When did laughing at killing animals become comedy? As pathetic as it is sickening.
What's that you say? A #poet made a profound difference? Let's just let that land. Next time you're complaining about how pointless it is that we still teach Shakespeare or explore #poetry; asking what use it is? Well one of those kids might go on to inspire the world! #Gorman
@BecciFearnley Awe, thanks lovely lady! It would still be a draft if a certain creative writing teacher hadn't given me a shove in the right direction 😉Thank you 🥰 @emwrites2
@NickyAACampbell@eliistender10@OneoftheFamily1 Dogs are the most sensitive of souls. This pic was taken a few years ago. I'd just returned home after receiving some terrible news. Usually manic, Bear didn't bark once, he just curled up with me and stayed there until I stopped crying on his head. I'll never forget it.
Great to see @ForestryEngland taking action on this. We're constantly told that we're a divided nation but 85% of us are united against this hideous 'sport' & the bare-faced flouting of the law #KeepTheBan#EnforceTheBan
@ChrisGPackham@nationaltrust@unitedutilities@NatResWales@DefenceHQ We have suspended all licences for trail hunting in the nation’s forests. This is in response to confirmation that the police are investigating webinars hosted by the Hunting Office. We do not intend to make any further comments until the police have concluded their investigation
And breathe!!
This moment is SO sweet 👏
Plenty of challenges ahead but just for now, let’s enjoy this moment
A victory not just for the US but for whole world - a chance to bring decency & generosity back to politics & rise together to the #ClimateEmergency#HopeOverFear
@sophiecooktalks I’ve just published a speculative fiction novel I started writing years ago. It briefly references ‘the inter-state war in the US’ amongst the world’s ails. I’m horrified to think fiction might creep close to reality. 😖
There's nothing we can do about what might be happening on the other side of the Atlantic. So try, if you can, to turn away for now. Hunker down, look after yourself, your family, friends and neighbours, join with others to fight for a better system at home.
It’s not often I laugh out loud at a #Today programme interview, but hearing the meat packers spokesperson hiding this naked panic at the shift to #meatfree diets behind ‘nutritional concerns’ raised a welcome chuckle. #Sustainability#Vegan
