Let me get my head around this @ShabanaMahmood, a government ministers speaks against actual government policy of the governmental department from which they serve under the Secretary of State leading the policy and NOTHING comes of it? Am I right so far?

But yet when I have the temerity to speak against a policy which the government is merely threatening to bring in, a policy that every stakeholder including the Lady Chief Justice is opposed to, Lammy and Reynolds et al have a nervous breakdown whilst being aware of and NOT discouraging briefings and a smear campaigns about my mental health. People saying “Turner is mental”. What actual world are we living in?

This song ‘Just Like Heaven’ was released by The Cure almost 40 years ago. 🤯

When we see all these older artists & bands, the first thing you notice is their voice has left them. They just don’t have it anymore.

Which makes Robert Smith’s voice that much more amazing. He sounds exactly the same playing to 40,000 people recently. 💯

What were you doing back in 1987 on October 5th, the day this song was released?

I agree completely with this. Anything that @DavidLammy has ever mustered has an idea since he’s been in the job needs careful scrutiny. I expect that to be happening. Pause and look at everything and ask the experts of which David definitely isn’t one. @AndyBurnhamGM will make sure that nothing slips through that isn’t stress tested. We can’t afford to start where we left off.

@bphillipsonMP Pretending the whole child of poverty claptrap is nauseating given the strife many of us went through. Stop it and do a decent job.

A stunning reminder of why we cannot give up on our rivers yesterday, as I stumbled across an adult eel on the Roding for the first time, lounging in the shallows in the shade of a council tower block & within earshot of the North Circular.

This now rare & magical sight used to be common, until eel populations crashed on the Roding in the 1980’s & have not recovered. Seeking to understand & reverse this population crash should surely be a key role for the governments environmental regulator, but as usual they have done nothing to improve water quality or remove barriers to eel migration. Worse, they are actively blocking my efforts to help the eel population recover.

Ordinarily, baby eels (elvers) for restocking are expensive to buy. However, I managed to secure a kind donation of elvers from fishermen on the River Severn (where the elvers often get stuck behind barriers on the river). I applied for my @EnvAgency restocking permit like a good boy & all they had to do to help recover eel populations on the Roding was to say yes. Perhaps predictably, my application was rejected, because there was no positive evidence that reintroducing eels to the Roding would be a good thing. Perhaps most annoyingly, my application to restock eels on the Roding was rejected because reintroducing them would interfere with the EA’s monitoring of their continued decline.

I asked what would happen if I went ahead & released the elvers anyway & was told that the EA would fine me up to £50,000. Yet another example of the malevolent uselessness of the EA: obsessed with procedure, but will do absolutely sod all to actually reverse the decline in our rivers.

@sharrond62 They are all as bad as each other so need to just suck it up and take what they’ve dished out. The whole I came from poverty line is a bit thin on all sides.

If Andy Burnham resists the urge to appoint the likes of Ed and Ange to anything above milk monitors, and gets rid of Lammy and Reeves he’ll like as not do ok. For a while.
