My mum died on Friday - she wanted to die for a few years.
Please, @NadineDorries, look at this new evidence and join me in saying #YesToDignity

This water vole is a long way from home...

I don't know if this is stubbornness or political messaging. Either way, it's atrocious.

@ericsteig @Mulls05 @jamzbrux Although that isn't really very funny 🙁

@IrishRainforest We live in a cul de sac of 12 houses. Only two now have genuine grass at the front. Either given over to concrete, gravel or articficial turf. In rebellion I am letting mine turn to a tiny mini-meadow. I explain why to neighbours when they mention the need to mow it....

Today I'm supporting the Day of Action to #CloseTheBarracks, urging @PritiPatel to:

1️⃣ #CloseTheBarracks
2️⃣ House people seeking asylum in communities
3️⃣ Commit to a vision of a fair & compassionate asylum system

Will you join me?

This is what we are fighting against: #extinction
And the battle for species is also the battle for better lives for everyone.

[Craig Bennett @CraigBennett3]

As a country, we really should be focusing our effort on getting super-fast broadband to everyone and everywhere, ASAP...

...rather than building new roads through wildlife sites.

Don't you think?!

A little known and gruesome fact about Suffolk: the last outbreak of plague in Britain occurred in Erwarton in 1918, with the final victim dying on 19 June of that year https://t.co/krJcqoK6jO

Genuinely don’t understand the obsession with using peat. It’s not the best growing medium, unless you’re growing stuff that grows in peat bogs. Which most of us aren’t.

@FreefromTorture Having been involved with this small charity for over 20 years, I wholeheartedly urge people to support Freedom from Torture.

@BrianE_Cambs @JonnyEcology @igorpianist Loved listening to him play at Wigmore Hall in the 'lock down' (and post-lockdown) live streamed recitals.

[Julia Burkett @JuliaAked]

@FreefromTorture We should remember - this is true for all of us. When and where we were born is a matter of luck and not something for which we can take any credit (or discredit).

[Julia Burkett @JuliaAked]

PM @BorisJohnson, at the start of this pandemic you promised asylum seekers would 'receive the Home Office funding they need and deserve'. 3 months in, you granted them a mere 26p extra per day. That is not good enough. We need you to urgently reconsider. https://t.co/stE8baIAYW

The EU #greenrecovery is great news -- but the @ecb is getting ready to undermine it with billions in fossil fuel spending. @Lagarde @banquedefrance please act for people and the planet, not dirty coal and gas corporations #Peoplenotpolluters

[Ben D. Spoone @Ben_the_Spoon]

We should be looking at the danger medical professionals are in the same way we look at firefighters strolling into infernos burning at 1000°c .The difference being that firefighters have adequate PPE.
It really shouldn't be left to charity to ensure healthcare professionals do.

Was sent this by a friend who didn't know its origin, but whoever did it: bravo! (Watch the notation carefully.)

Thanks so much people who have already given, nearly £600 in a couple of days. Can we get to £1k by end of next week? Please RT if you can't give - it helps! https://t.co/qWyA4rMf32
