If stopping traffic on the M25 to campaign for an end to environmental disaster is punishable with 5 years in prison, what should the sentence be for the fossil fuel barons who are fuelling environmental disaster? 50yrs? 500yrs? What? https://t.co/6yHr3H5VmT

[Caroline Lucas @CarolineLucas]

This sentence is obscene. Why are we punishing the people trying to prevent disaster while allowing the oil company giants causing it to reap super profits?

Puke.

@BeesintheCity @apiculturalLdn @Marthakearney @eyupmeducky @LondonBeeKeeper @Londonhoneyman I'm sure when I started keeping bees, the big flows would be bramble, followed by the lime. Recently they seem to have been more or less simultaneous.

Good summary.

“What we call capitalism is actually a civilisational destruction machine keeping power, economy, religion and society hostage to the biggest hallucination that has ever existed: Growth”

One of my colonies yesterday, amazing brood pattern, hive full of bees. Barely a drop of nectar or honey. Never seen a year like this one before. #beekeeping #margate .

"And strong and stronger came the sulphury smell,
With demons following in the breath of hell,
Laughing in mockery as the doom'd complain'd,
Losing their pains in seeing others pain'd."

Really great to see the Greens and Lib Dems making gains too. Maybe the news channels could stop inviting Richard Tice and Reform on all the time and reflect the politics of this country.

Found this critter by the side of the road. I think it's a vole. Don't know much about voles, it doesn't feel like the road is its natural habitat. #Thanet #wildlife #critter

@Otto_English Like most sectors higher education is an unfolding disaster. As soon as the international students pull out that'll be it.

[Wild Margate @WildMargate]

Or less made-up.

[Wild Margate @WildMargate]

The news is not getting less surreal.

[Celia Richardson @CeliaRichards0n]

In today’s Daily Mail: The National Trust has now banned mushrooms, ‘putting thousands of jobs at risk.’ We have not banned mushrooms, nor are we boycotting any fungi. We don’t sell anything grown in peat, but the rest of it is - hallucinatory. https://t.co/fDoH5lLaWK

Joke might be funnier if these three grotesques of the hard right hadn't been near permanent fixtures on BBC telly for the last decade.

[Have I Got News For You @haveigotnews]

GB News has reported losses of £42 million as a result of overpaying onscreen talent, thereby demonstrating a misunderstanding of both accounting practices and the word 'talent'

[Collapse Aphorisms @CollapseDiaries]

A gentle reminder: The ancient Greek philosophers spent their days painstakingly teasing out the difference between belief and truth, and yet 2,500 years later on, here we fucking are.

This looks great. I wish it were in Kent.

[Chris Oldman @AlsikkanTV]

apparently this was sold as a live Willy Wonka Experience but they used all AI images on the website to sell tickets and then people showed up and saw this and it got so bad people called the cops lmao

[Wild Margate @WildMargate]

Can't we incorporate the washing machine into SI units?

@BrutalHouse Where is it? Love this brutalist ghost pavilion in the corner.

Labour to ditch £28bn annual green investment pledge, party sources say | Labour |
Just in case you need any further persuasion as to the importance of more Green MPs at the next election - to make Labour braver, bolder & better 👇 https://t.co/CjmiUVeNws

It's 2024, I thought we might be past this policy of generalised habitat destruction. @ThanetCouncil, why are you doing this to Dane Park?
