I just signed the petition to introduce mandatory price caps on essential supermarket food. Scotland's Government are doing it - join me and tell the rest of the UK to do the same! https://t.co/phEAQWqJa6

"Sickening sight and smell as human sewage pours into Carmarthenshire river."

So it's all been going on in Wales this weekend. Welsh Water really are a joke.

@Feargal_Sharkey @WindrushWasp What do we expect when the relatively new CEO is former Chair? Of Environmental Agency as Dirty Water highlighted telling employees even then not to report any nasty spills. What does it take for grown ups to own up to their actions? What has happened to good old morality?

Michael Gove turned up at work to vote completely off his face.

It's totally unacceptable, if you turned up to work like that you would be fired on the spot.

The Health Secretary has taken £372,000 from private health-linked donors since entering parliament. That's at a rate of £10,000 a month since taking office. His biggest donor owns companies that recruit NHS managers AND private health executives.

This week he also gave himself the power to override the independent body that stops the NHS being overcharged for drugs.

When poison designed for rodents is turning up in birds of prey and mammals across the country, it shows the scale of environmental damage we're causing.

We need action to monitor, regulate and phase out these harmful substances before the damage goes further.

Outside the Royal Courts of Justice where the Goddess of the Wye & River Wye guardians are awaiting the start of the biggest river pollution case in UK history. Thousands of people are challenging the chicken farming & sewage pollution that is killing their river.

"Southern Water admits sewage pollution which occurred weeks after record fine."

In 2021 Southern Water was fined £90,000,000 for illegally dumping sewage into the environment on almost 7,000 separate occasions.

They have now also admitted that for the following 2 years they kept on illegally dumping sewage into Swalecliffe Brook in Whitstable and Faversham Creek causing fish kills and widespread devastation.

Can someone explain to me why the CEO and directors aren't going to jail for this?

The Iran war is making everything more expensive for us, but some companies are cashing in. Don't think that's right? Sign the petition now demanding they are taxed more on their record profits to help us all with the cost of living. https://t.co/29grzvI7Va via @38degrees

I’ve signed this calling for the full Mandelson files, including vetting documents, to be published. Parliament and the public need the full facts, not partial disclosure.

The Cul-de-Sac That Used to Be Her Home.
A female badger stands at the edge of a fresh tarmac driveway in the April twilight, her paws caked in the clay of a leveled hillside.

"I have raised six generations in the dark earth beneath this spot," she grunts, her scent-marking glands working fruitlessly against a concrete kerb. "I know the exact root where the bluebells first break and the slope where the oak mast falls. Now, there is only a fence where my front door used to be. I am not lost—the world is."

We often assume that wildlife can simply "move next door" when we build new housing estates, viewing animals as flexible commuters.

In reality, badgers are deeply site-faithful. A social group may use the same sett for over a century. Right now in mid-April, sows are weaning cubs and require immense caloric intake. When a development goes up in months, it destroys 15 years of topographical memory. Displacement leads to "road-kill" spikes as confused animals attempt to navigate old paths that are now motorways.

Practical Actions:

Support Wildlife Corridors: Advocate for "badger gates" in new housing fences to allow ancestral passage.

Report Sett Damage: If you see active digging near construction, ensure a license is in place.

She isn't a "nuisance" in your garden; she is a refugee standing in her own living room.

"The 20 UK 'no-go' beaches for swimming this spring revealed - with contaminated waters, sewage and dump waste polluting the sea."

Truly what have we become as a nation when every spring newspapers are having to publish 20 beaches to avoid lists? 🤬

@Feargal_Sharkey @Keir_Starmer https://t.co/MXKAThXvEM…The whole enterprise is criminal (it’s an unlawful practice) it’s immoral and it’s greed in plain sight. A scale of profiteering beyond comprehension. Where is your outrage, when will this stop. A total disregard for public health! Furious!!
