The current temperatures in western and central Europe would have been virtually impossible 50 years ago, and unprecedented humidity levels make this heatwave especially dangerous https://t.co/qg3SBoSiSo
@RSPCA_official@domdyer70 there must be a prosecution for this horrific abuse! If there isnโt, this man could then go on to abuse or murder a child or domestic partner in the future. Animal abuse is a predictor crime for domestic abuse, child abuse and antisocial behaviour!
A farm business which supplies free range pork to major supermarket chains has admitted animal offences after undercover footage captured staff bludgeoning pigs.
Norfolk Free Range, which is accredited by an RSPCA welfare scheme, provided meat to Waitrose, Tesco, Sainsburyโs, Morrisons, Co-op, Aldi and Lidl.
The footage, which was taken over an eight-day period, caught workers attacking pigs with a long metal fencing pole, known as a hurdle pin, in two separate incidents.
One pig appeared to be left for dead in one of the attacks, which was shown in a documentary, Pignorant, produced by vegan animal activist Joey Carbstrong in 2022.
Two farm workers โ a man and a woman โ were subsequently sacked following the incidents at Harford Farm in Caistor St Edmund.
The business had denied six charges including failing in its duty to ensure animal welfare, allowing the killing of pigs without a licence, killing animals without the proper restraint and allowing workers to inflict blows and kicks on animals.

โ Check long grass carefully.
โ Walk the area first
โ carefully move leaves, compost, and debris
โ Avoid tackling dense vegetation without checking
A few extra minutes could save a life.

Day three of the worst June heat wave in history & the dogs at MBR beagle breeding facility in Cambridgeshire are locked in steel cages in 38 degree centigrade disgusting cruelty
The Earth was fully stocked: water to drink, soil to grow food, forests to shelter us, a sun that rises every day, a moon that moves water, and oceans that regulate the climate. Then, men invented war, debt and capitalism.
AI data centres are hungry for land, water & power.
Iโm calling on every major AI company to publicly disclose the full environmental impact of its systems โ as a matter of transparency
No more hidden costs.
No more shifting the burden onto those least able to bear it.
It is time to come clean.
Try to listen to @TalkTV now and again to listen to different views. OMG! The shouting and whingeing is unbelievable. And the generalising and stereotyping. Anybody not on the political right, is extremist and woke apparently?!?! Most people in the UK are not extremists!!!!
"Extinction doesn't begin when the last individual dies. It begins earlier, when a population is cut off from the processes that sustain it. When mates cannot be found. When young cannot disperse. When genes cannot move. When a drought cannot be escaped. When a local loss cannot be repaired by arrival from elsewhere. When a patch of life becomes an island and the sea around it widens. Wildlife corridors are one way of narrowing the seas we've made." https://t.co/A0vepvO7FW
@Nigel_Farage Yeah, and how well did that go? Why people are interested in what youโve got to say after the mess you triggered 10 years ago, baffles me.
Donโt forget to put water out for our wildlife folks! Even just a small bowl can make a difference. If you can, put a bowl higher up for birds so theyโre not at risk of being catted. ๐ฅฐ
