@andyburnham In my day we had grammar schools and secondary modern schools. I went to a secondary modern school and we had lots of Technical education. And I’m glad to say that I and many of my classmates whom I have kept in touch with have had very satisfactory careers.
@LeagueACS@domdyer70 This is 2026 and so called civilised British people still think it’s fun killing a deer, an animal, effectively a thinking creature who like all of the larger mammals can be happy, sad, worried and scared. No more no less than an human.
@domdyer70 We think we humans are the only ones who should populate this planet and any other species are either pests or are part of our living larder, keeping our food fresh and ready to eat.
@ChrisGPackham@domdyer70 Overflowing sewers and overwhelmed treatment plants contaminated rivers with pathogens and chemicals. Over population overloads infrastructure, turning once clear streams into polluted corridors. Communities downstream suffer health crisis while ecosystems collapse.
@Feargal_Sharkey 10 million more people in the UK since 2000.
Billions more in water rates.
Yet our rivers are choking on sewage.
Where did the money go?
Forests vanish under ploughs as billions need farmland- woodlands raised for crops and livestock. This relentless expansion destroys habitats, destabilises climate, and sacrifices vital carbon sinks, leaving the Earth hotter and wildlife stranded.
Imagine a world where every drop of fresh water matters, billions draining aquifers faster than they can recharge. Overpopulation turns rivers into trickles and makes clean water a luxury once taken for granted.
Here’s a story which I wish some of the destroyers of our lovely planet would watch.

Peter Hitchens masterfully exposes the farcical nature of Net Zero, to the absolute dismay of BBC Question Time panellists.
"If you want to live in a country where nobody can afford to heat their house... if you want lots of people to lose their jobs because there's no energy, if you want to be cold all the time... then carry on believing that the demand to go for Net Zero is intelligent and thoughtful."

Almost every problem, every where, in any Country, be it Africa, Asia, or the middle East would not be a problem if the numbers of human’s in that Country were in the the hundred thousands and and not in the tens of millions, or hundreds of millions. Population explosion!
Ed Miliband in particular are just about to spend £22 billion (which is bound to double) on a carbon catcher scheme that may or may not work. Just imagine 22 billion spent on condoms and issued free throughout Africa, how much carbon and human destruction that would save.
@Mark_PPP "The available evidence shows that only 25% of the increase in greenhouse-gas emissions globally is attributable to per-capita increases in consumption, whereas 75% is due to population growth"
