Large puffin 'wreck' off SW Europe & N Africa in recent days following storms at sea. Reports of hundreds of beached birds. Five so far from @shiantisles. The Lanzerote bird is as far south as UK puffins have ever been reported?

@MakingH2Happen @Jacob_Rees_Mogg Heating with hydrogen from renewable energy is 6 times less efficient than using the same electricity in a heat pump. I don't know a single serious energy analyst not affiliated with the gas industry who thinks hydrogen heating will be a thing. @Jacob_Rees_Mogg please call!

Just another Sunday afternoon after church on the Faroe Islands, Denmark. A few hundred whales and dolphins killed in the name of tradition and community. In truth social cohesion is too high a price to pay. RT

[Raptor Persecution UK @RaptorPersUK]

Natural England utterly compromised on tackling hen harrier persecution.

Continued silence on the depraved brutality inflicted on Hen Harrier Asta.

Humans fucking suck.

[Raptor Persecution UK @RaptorPersUK]

Natural England accepts £75k bung for hen harriers from game-shooting organisation, BASC, on condition that NE doesn't say anything bad about BASC.

Does this explain NE's reluctance to publicise the unspeakable atrocity inflicted on hen harrier Asta?⬇️

[UK is with EU @ukiswitheu]

Marr: Are you absolutely clear that our environmental standards will not be loosened by leaving the EU?

Gove: Yes, we can have a green brexit that ensures Britain is an environmental leader

[UK is with EU @ukiswitheu]

..8 months ago the Labour party put an amendment to the Environment Bill that would have stopped raw sewage being dumped in the sea

..The Tories voted against it

Has @Ofwat and the water industry started fiddling the leakage figures to try and make them look better?

New information makes me think the original numbers were “basically bollocks”

@RachSalv hunts down why @ofwat changed the way it counts from 1 to 5

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

Do you live in a freeport? Since rings of up to 75km wide were drawn around them, without consulting us, many millions of us now do. Yet trying to discover exactly what this means is like pulling teeth. In today's column, I attempt to work it out.

[Feargal Sharkey @Feargal_Sharkey]

I know I've said this about some in the environment lobby but it's looking like the same thing now applies to @Ofwat.

Taken hostage by the water industry and currently suffering from a very bad case of Stockholm syndrome.

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

It wouldn’t have cost anything but love and respect for other life . . . tolerance and understanding . . . kindness . Just bloody kindness . That’s all . The savages that did this have shamed all of Norway and we will never forget it . @NorwayMFA @visitnorway @NorwayUS

[FRPY 🇵🇭 @Felipe_RoblesII]

@mikegalsworthy @RishiSunak Rishi Sunak, you are an absolute prune!! The UK has, lamentably, ceased all collaboration and cooperation with all its neighbours.

HORRIFIC NEWS

100 bottlenose dolphins killed in Faroe Islands hunt today

They could be some of the same animals that bring so much joy to people in the UK and elsewhere.

This is utter crap and villainises our native wildlife. Get a grip.

“As far as I am aware, no Government business was discussed.”

As far as I am aware.

Boris Johnson’s account today of meeting Alexander Lebedev.

Why is he not sure?

He was Foreign Secretary. He met an ex KGB agent during the Skripal crisis.

It was his job to be sure.
