@TheLastLeg @Channel4 #IsItOk that brexit is being ignored for damaging the economy and living standards.

Word of the day is 'pish-monger', 17th century: one who treats others with scornful contempt (as if constantly uttering a dismissive 'pish!').

Read and weep. THIS is the reality of "tree planting" projects in the UK: pesticides & fertilisers, obliteration of native plant, insect & bird species, soil erosion & river pollution, release of huge amount of carbon. And this destruction is funded by government & charities...😢

Red and grey squirrels have very similar diets and when sharing woodland greys outcompete reds for food. Grey squirrels can tolerate a higher tannin (toxin) content in food, having a wider diet means they dominate food sources. Less food for reds reduces their chance of survival.

Word of the day (again) is ‘boondoggle’: a highly wasteful and ultimately ineffective project.

The phrase, ‘EU shellfish ban,’ keeps being used by news outlets and it’s important to understand how this language is misleading and how Government is deliberately using misinformation to hide from its own failures...
