For the crime of cleaning up this beautiful corner of dear England @paulpowlesland is facing two years in prison.

That such a selfless, years-long effort to clean one of our rivers should come to this is proof positive the regime which rules us hates anything and anyone good.

This year the Home Office moved to stop expert sheep shearers from Australia and New Zealand coming to shear British sheep.

The people who keep the animals comfortable were declared surplus to requirements.

For over a decade, around 75 of the best shearers on earth have flown in each spring on a simple visa concession. In a few brutal weeks they take the wool off up to two million sheep.

A top shearer clears a ewe in two or three minutes. Hundreds a day. Calm hands, no panic in the animal. It is a global trade and a young body's game, and Britain has never grown enough of its own.

The official line? Fourteen years to train Britons, so the door is closing.

Here is what that tidy sentence ignores. A sheep must be shorn every year or she overheats, cannot move properly, and gets eaten alive by flies and maggots. Shearing on time is welfare, plain and simple, written into law and into the animal's own skin.

So a government that lectures farmers without pause about welfare has quietly made the most basic welfare task harder to carry out. After the outcry they allowed one "final" year. Then the experts are gone for good.

A sector already losing money on every fleece, already burning wool it cannot sell, now told it cannot even get the people in to take the wool off.

You could be forgiven for thinking somebody wants the British sheep gone.

@Dpdukservice So update, I spoke to someone who was very hard work to understand what needed to do and I am still confused as to whether what he was suggesting was a scam. Tried to get me to install an app then abruptly cut me off when questioned. I have claim number now though?

[Philip Tattersall @filfoot]

@Dpdukservice awful service, dropped off a parcel to Yeep inpost locker and no receipt given , no way of tracking parcel. Looking at poor reviews online and wish I hadn't bothered, loads of parcels are going missing with no recompense from DPD... Awful service avoid avoid avoid

@Dpd_Dms Hi I'm available to talk now.
Thanks you

@GMB Why is GMB hiding replies on this serious subject? To unhide tape the three vertical dots to the top right of the screen just under the grok logo and click view hidden replies.

Folic Acid has been shown by RCT to more than double the risk of prostate cancer.

The mandatory "fortification" (new speak for contamination) of our food with a synthetic drug that causes serious harm is an unethical violation of informed consent.

It must be stopped.

@PureGym Coventry Warwickshire Shopping park gym is allowing children in. Currently in the gym and what looks to be an unattended 5 year old child in the weights area. Parent or guardian not to be seen. This is a health and safety issue.

@narindertweets @GMB At what point are people compelled to steal confectionery? When did confectionery become an essential ingredient for existence? It's nothing more than people's greed over need, and by making excuses for this behaviour will only undermine society even further.

I'm buying a church.

I’ve made a cash offer of £225,000 to purchase this church, which was about to close and be sold off to developers.

I'm fed up with driving past all these churches in the UK that used to thrive, support the community, and feed the homeless.

Now, just look at these beautiful church buildings.

So many are boarded up, closed down, with developers queueing up to profit from converting them into flats.

I simply can't accept that a building built to glorify Jesus for generations can be turned into something solely for profit.

So I've placed an offer on a church in my hometown.

My plan is to buy it and offer it completely free of charge, with zero rent, to a church willing to worship Jesus here and serve others.

What do you think of this idea?

🚨VERY IMPORTANT!

The Prime Minister wants to strip jury trials from offences carrying up to three years imprisonment.

A former human rights lawyer- he will actually order his MP’s to support the undermining and restriction of this fundamental cornerstone of our democracy - a right which has been a fundamental feature of the British Justice for over 800 years.

He plans to do this even though independent analysis shows these changes would make NO meaningful difference to the court backlog and there is no credible evidence it will make justice swifter.

What it will do however, is place the country on a path toward authoritarian justice!

CONTACT YOUR MP NOW before it’s too late - tag them to this film and ask them to oppose the Prime Ministers appalling plan to undermine and restrict this fundamental cornerstone of our democracy

[Sharron Davies HoL MBE @sharrond62]

Why are the bbc in particular but especially left leading msm ignoring this fight by an oppressed people for freedom ?

[John Cleese @JohnCleese]

Why, in God's name, has the BBC been told to ignore this ?

[Jake Wallis Simons @JakeWSimons]

A lecturer in Lyon is thrown out of his own class by radical students. This could be a scene from the 1930s in Germany, or the Russian or Chinese revolutions. We haven’t learned from history!

[Mark Seddon @MarkSeddon1962]

Privatised Britain is a shambles, presided over by pocket stuffing CEOs whose shareholders come first. What will it take for Ministers to grasp the fact that 80% of us want to see water back in public hands?

[Prem Sikka @premnsikka]

UK using more wood to make electricity than ever, Drax figures show.

Drax burns wood, the most expensive electricity, biggest UK polluter.

Drax is highly profitable. Received subsidies for years, will receive £458.6m a year between 2027 and 2031.

Any attempt by the government to undermine this fundamental freedom - a cornerstone of our democracy and an essential safeguard against authoritarianism must be opposed

@BBCNews Hmmmm looking at the comments on the royals , is a republican future inevitable.
