@JackWills Hey Jack Wills, just received an item which I paid full price for and it has a sale label claiming it’s £20 cheaper! Feeling a bit cheated here! Can you help?

I went to see for myself Southern Water's toxic plastic beads clean up operation and guess what, is a sham.

6 days ago John Penicud from SW told @BBCPM @EvanHD "I'm at the beach at the moment and we've got around 70% of those beads now fully cleaned up".

This is what SW's clean up operation actually looks like.

Local volunteers however are still trying to clean up the beach and they tell me the pollution now stretches all the way along the coast as far as Dungeness a distance of over 10 miles. The also tell me the plastic beads are also threatening the Rye Harbour Nature Reserve home to over 4200 species of plants and animals.

I think we all know who the real heroes are here.

These 2 women have broken my💔One is a role model in my 📕 about this campaign, her speech FOR swift bricks 2 years ago, extremely powerful. The other has supported from the start (she used to be the CEO of the RSPB!)
It’s gutting they voted AGAINST swift bricks. I believed them

[Hannah Bourne-Taylor @WriterHannahBT]

These are the people who blocked the swift brick amendment last night. 102 Labour Peers thanks to the rather extreme 3 line whip which just goes to show how much #Labour do NOT want to help nature let alone swifts. Normally a 3 line whip is used for fairly extreme amendments.

[Hannah Bourne-Taylor @WriterHannahBT]

Apparently swift bricks are just too costly. Sorry guys, swifts& their 50 million year old existence& the category of most accessible urban birds, just isn’t worth the cost. Bye bye birdies. If you disagree tell [email protected]

[Paul Jennings @PJennings88]

@Feargal_Sharkey You work your butt off the improve habitat and you start to see a sustainable wild fish stock coming back and this happens. Zero respect for the environment or wildlife. Had poachers on the river at 6.30am this morning. @RiverChess

@PJennings88 @Feargal_Sharkey @RiverChess 😤 why do they take the head? So very sad 😞

I’m not saying there’s a problem with our waterways and nutrient levels here in the UK, but . . . .

How about it @EnvAgency?

GOOD NEWS: Lead shot will be banned! RESULT!

After years of campaigning, the use of toxic lead ammunition by the shooting industry will be banned. This is excellent news for people's health and for wildlife.
