Lover of wild things and places.

We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild... unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.

@RupertLowe10 It's all a bit desperate now isn't it? The Tories need to be put out of their misery.

[Richard Ashmead @RubotRedford]

@normAL219 What have Tories achieved in 12 years of trying to control immigration?

@mikemoves12 It's not an invasion.

@arealmofwonder Two years ago just after my mother's death I took my late father to Dymock in Gloucestershire to see the famous daffodil woods. Frost lived nearby when he wrote the poem and it was very apparent to us his "yellow woods" may well have been those we were walking through.

@blondiebabe40 Sunak needs more people like you.

@kezia_noble Our health and care system relied on health professionals and workers from overseas.

@MousesTongue @sonyachnik @thatdayin1992 How gullible you are to believe the referendum was conducted properly? Were the thousands of Ukrainians who had to leave their homes in Crimea given the vote?

@Peter_Shilton @RishiSunak It's not an invasion.

@JackieD86388657 It's important not to ramp up the hysteria about this but find a workable, sensible solution.

Ivy continuing to provide an abundant source of food for insects. These wasps prefer it to the windfallen apples.

@Plumb4Jenny The chestnuts we've found this year have been the best ever!

@wallacemick Do you support peace in Israel and condemn Palestinians for resisting?

[Richard Ashmead @RubotRedford]

@blackintheempir It's well known the conflict started in 2014. The important thing is that Russia massively escalated the war by invading Ukraine in 2022.

[Richard Ashmead @RubotRedford]

@blackintheempir How is democracy in Russia going?

[Richard Ashmead @RubotRedford]

@theclawsoftime What so Labour can lose again?

[Richard Ashmead @RubotRedford]

@blackintheempir It's not a war against Russia.

[Richard Ashmead @RubotRedford]

@wallacemick Russia has escalated the war from the outset. It is Russians who are causing Ukrainian deaths, not the West.
