Exempt #GMOs (such as forestry trees, pets or wild animals, including insects) will not be required to have ANY environmental risk assessment before open release into the environment, and there is NO provision to stop, destroy or clean-up such releases if anything goes wrong.

Shocking, sad news that Foo Fighters’ Taylor Hawkins has died.

Here he is taking the mic at Glastonbury 2017 to cover ‘Under Pressure’.

For two months our team of journalists fanned out across Eng and Wales, logging possession hearings in 30 courts. But time and time again we were told - incorrectly - that journalists and the public were never allowed into these courts... https://t.co/o5b3BHiEYQ

@metecoban92 @DailyMirror @PollyBillington @steve_race @HackneyLabour @anyasizer @SophieCam @AnntoinetteBra1 @mayorofhackney Does the carbon emissions figure include Hackney’s contribution to the circa 700k tonne CO2 output of rubbish burnt at the Edmonton Incinerator?
If not then the figures used are misleading & Hackney’s failure to meet recycling targets is being offset in carbon terms to Enfield

@RealJohnWynne @LNER @LumoTravel Thank you!

[Emma J Bartholomew @EmmaReporter]

@RealJohnWynne The LNER train is being marketed on a pre-recorded announcement as a @LNER and @LumoTravel service
I’m still curious how the Lumo train failed 8 journeys in - saw the TV cameras at Kings Cross on Monday for its launch.

[Emma J Bartholomew @EmmaReporter]

@RealJohnWynne @GordonDudman @Captain_Deltic No I wondered what had happened - was trying to find out on Twitter but can’t see @LumoTravel has announced it

[Emma J Bartholomew @EmmaReporter]

@Captain_Deltic @RealJohnWynne @GordonDudman @LNER LNER just did exactly that though! Loads of people standing, who hadn’t pre-booked their tickets. The announcer told them to stand, so Lumo people could sit down
