The BBC has decided not to broadcast an episode of David Attenborough’s flagship new series on British wildlife because of fears its themes of the destruction of nature would risk a backlash from Tory politicians and the rightwing press https://t.co/qY2ZwZS90q

Freedom of the press is vital for a free society. Journalists being detained and having their houses searched for doing their job have no place in a democracy. Chilling.

"No matter what I said, it didn't make any difference."

Press Photographer Tom Bowles was arrrested while covering a Just Stop Oil protest.

In his first TV interview, @MinnieStephC4 speaks to him about his experience.

Boris Johnson's fault. Blew up his own premiership in successive acts of epic idiocy, then he insisted in a huff Sunak had to be stopped, and all his friends insisted it must be so, and the result was Liz Truss in Number 10. Well done everyone involved.

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

This week, MPs agreed that peaceful protesters, whether convicted of any crime or not, can be electronically tagged, forced to report to the police, forbidden to associate with others or to attend or encourage further protests.
Somehow this passed almost all of you by.

How many of you know what Cruella Braverman's Public Order Bill contains?
It's frankly unbelievable: legislation you might expect in Russia, Iran or Egypt. Here's a summary from my column today:

@AdeleMcVayHV @iwontwheesht @Albawitch_xx There are some people who identify differently. They tend to go through healthcare examinations with much higher stress levels. To ask this simple question is relatively harmless to everyone else, but would make a huge difference to those few people.

This is Chatsworth House, the Duke of Devonshire's home.

He gets £69k a year from the taxpayer to heat it by burning wood – that’s £1,395,160 over 20 years.

His boilers have already paid for themselves, but he’s set to get the Renewable Heat Incentive (RHI) cash until 2033

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

We don’t have enough money to run a justice system that can investigate and try serious criminal cases in less than four years.

But we do have money to fly empty planes to Rwanda to show just how tough we are on people seeking sanctuary.

What a time to be alive.
