In ‘retirement’ with 5 grandchildren in UK. Set up @BigburyNetZero to kick start community action to reduce carbon emissions. 2030 only eight years away. https://t.co/zjWsb5ejlZ

In spite of rhetoric and legislation there is no fast track legislation to get bio pesticides into use in EU and UK. Complacency about lobby power of agrochemical and fossil fuel industries will accelerate climate change catastrophe.

"If you..." @GreenJennyJones lists the draconian actions
"All a ploy to turn all the cards in favour of an unaccountable government that can't be challenged in the courts, can't be challenge at the ballot box and can't be challenged on the streets. We have to unite against it."
