Michael O'Leary says that when older Brexiters die, the young will take the UK back into the EU.

He adds that Johnson and his Brexit cohort are delusional.

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

This is appalling. It’s time to change our societal priorities

[ALASTAIR CAMPBELL @campbellclaret]

I simply cannot fathom how this is happening and neither the government nor most of the media seems to give a damn. What kind of country have we become?

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

@ECOWARRIORSS If you read the study it equally suggests that it may not be. #greenwashing

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

It’s interesting to compare this with the EUs reforms on Cap. It doesn’t. Woefully short sited, disjointed and unlikely to encourage uptake. Worst of all it does almost nothing for upland ag. 🤬Post-Brexit farm subsidies revealed https://t.co/9mnAEAhhFn

This is Extraordinary please comment and share as you see fit. I haven’t seen this in any media but it was in the lower house yesterday…. https://t.co/m5Miiv8FG5

@hattonmark40 @GeorgeMonbiot @GeorgeMonbiot doesn’t appear to like anyone with a reasonable argument or science led argument that disagrees with his own @hattonmark40 …… hmmm why might that be? Christmas book to sell maybe??!!

[TotleyPrimarySchool @TotleyPrimary]

Our FS2D children are so proud of their whole class retelling of the Gingerbread Man. Their work has been made into this fabulous book which they will be able to revisit in the #readingcorner 😊

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

@suepritch The common thread in all this is the human population. That is the root cause of all intensification. Therefore is the conversation that politics, economics and religion doesn’t want to have but must now be had if humanity is ever going to thrive on this planet again.

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

This is worrying Sue, but increasingly it is becoming clear in science that there is only one reason for all of the issues. And whilst it is intensity, its not in livestock but in Humanity. Farming can only de-intensify if we do first. This is the conversation that is so needed.

Has the Population Bomb exploded? https://t.co/6mSs3DT7i3 via @JulianCribb

Todays one in 500 year flood. We’ve had 3 of them this year…… @theresecoffey Now would be a good time to act on climate change.

[Karin Kuhlemann @karin_kuhlemann]

So it appears I started using Twitter more... just as it got into its death bed. What a shame. A useful tool to engage with others who also happen to care about human overpopulation, cruelty to animals, and our species' apocalyptic blindness. Oh well.

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

@suepritch And how will any of this be widely adopted by farmers on a global scale…
I can’t see anything to make the change happen in the uk never mind less developed areas of the world…. I could call out some significant farming landlords and water pollution issues trusted to the nation

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

@suepritch Sadly Sue the answer is no.

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

Exactly!

[Peter Kendall @pkendallfarm]

So why on earth did he @MPGeorgeEustice go along with it?

[Andrew Lazenby @AndyLaz80]

@Sarahbellagri The bit that annoys me is that Mr Eustice didn’t speak up at the time people will say he couldn’t he was in government etc. But he had a role to play in this. People just going oh well it’s wrong but hey ho. Is basically what’s wrong in https://t.co/406hMz127I and so many places
