MR James and other ghost stories, film especially Buster Keaton, silents and classics. Hope to return to these when the UK rejoins the EU (may be some time...).

One teaspoon of the neonicotinoids pesticide could kill 1.25 billion bees. And yet the Government could be about to let it back on English fields. Sign the petition: tell Ministers to keep this ban on bee-killing pesticides in place. https://t.co/eVq0vKGfar

Elon Musk does not represent the views of British people. So I've signed the open letter telling him to butt out of UK politics. Agree? Sign & share far & wide across social media so he sees & knows we won't stand for his meddling. https://t.co/BoJktcojPG

@DoctorGallow I think I might have found you already (my memory!) but will hurry over to check!

@DoctorGallow I can't find you there 😪, is your handle a bit different?

[Roger Hallam @RogerHallamCS21]

I was in a queue waiting for dinner in my prison the other day. I overheard a guy saying, "Yeah I got a 1 year sentence and I am still in here after 15 years." I see him around the prison. He has a resigned mood about him. Like you would if your life was being taken from you. No one is writing articles in the Guardian about him.

The situation of Gaie Delap being sent back to prison because a tag cannot fit around her ankle or wrist securely is, of course, cruel and totally unnecessary. But then the whole prison system is cruel and totally unnecessary. It is massively underfunded and tens of thousands of people are being banged up for no other reason than state neglect. The whole system is "beyond absurd". It's a modern form of slavery - except the tags are now plastic not iron. It's only accepted because it has grown slowly into the obscenity it is and governments do not care.

Those that aimed to stop the M25 were not "environmental activists" as the liberal press likes to pretend. They were resistors against a regime engaged in genocide. It was an act of civil resistance, not a "protest". We are in prison not because we are a threat to the community but a threat to the regime that is taking our communities into the endless hell of climate breakdown. Our sentences and treatment are not "disproportionate". They are illegal and criminal. We should not be in prison at all.

Carla Denyer, MP, is lying when she says the actions were "designed to draw attention to the threat posed by the climate emergency." They were designed not to "draw attention" but to stop the climate emergency by pressuring the government to stop licenses to drill for more oil and gas. The climate emergency is not "a threat", it is an existing objective reality. There are 100,000 cars presently being scrapped in Valencia. $500 billion of damage has been inflicted on the US economy by recent hurricanes. The elites have conspired to lock in 2C, which will destroy the livelihoods of 1 billion people. And that will be just the beginning. This state sponsored vandalism will continue for 100,000 years. Politicians have known what they were and are now still doing for 30 years. It is the greatest crime in the history of humanity. And Carla Denyer is now part of the political class complicit in this crime. One day these people will themselves have to face British "justice". And whether a tag fits around their ankles will be the last of their worries.

Meet Our Sweetheart"

This beautiful girl came into our care after her owner threatened to abandon her. We couldn’t let that happen. She is now safe with an experienced, loving foster family who will give her the care she deserves, help her shed the excess weight, and most importantly, turn her life around.
On another note, I will be taking this weekend off as advised by my GP due to extremely high blood pressure. While we remain on call, I need to step back briefly and prepare for some Christmas celebrations. It’s been a challenging time, with soaring overheads and constant calls for help from services, the community, and even the London Ambulance Service.
I want to express my deepest gratitude for your kind donations—they are truly needed and appreciated now more than ever. While I may be less active on social media this weekend, please know that I am still working hard behind the scenes to support our animals and the team.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend,

Michelle xx

The @rspcaassured scheme is a con. The charity was set up to lobby for more legislation to protect animals, not sell them down the river for a few pennies.

Boxing Day hunts continue under the guise of “trail hunting,” but wildlife suffers. This outdated, cruel tradition has no place in modern Britain. Time to end it for good.
