A stunning reminder of why we cannot give up on our rivers yesterday, as I stumbled across an adult eel on the Roding for the first time, lounging in the shallows in the shade of a council tower block & within earshot of the North Circular.
This now rare & magical sight used to be common, until eel populations crashed on the Roding in the 1980βs & have not recovered. Seeking to understand & reverse this population crash should surely be a key role for the governments environmental regulator, but as usual they have done nothing to improve water quality or remove barriers to eel migration. Worse, they are actively blocking my efforts to help the eel population recover.
Ordinarily, baby eels (elvers) for restocking are expensive to buy. However, I managed to secure a kind donation of elvers from fishermen on the River Severn (where the elvers often get stuck behind barriers on the river). I applied for my @EnvAgency restocking permit like a good boy & all they had to do to help recover eel populations on the Roding was to say yes. Perhaps predictably, my application was rejected, because there was no positive evidence that reintroducing eels to the Roding would be a good thing. Perhaps most annoyingly, my application to restock eels on the Roding was rejected because reintroducing them would interfere with the EAβs monitoring of their continued decline.
I asked what would happen if I went ahead & released the elvers anyway & was told that the EA would fine me up to Β£50,000. Yet another example of the malevolent uselessness of the EA: obsessed with procedure, but will do absolutely sod all to actually reverse the decline in our rivers.
Bills up.
Wages too low.
Record profits for Oil & Gas.
50 richest families with more wealth than 50% of population.
Shit in our rivers.
Pensioners jailed for protesting.
Migrants thrown under the bus.
Supporting a Genocide.
That's Starmer's legacy.
The Israeli PR machine is panicking. Israelβs funnelled $4.1 million into the βlargest Christian Church Geofencing Campaign in US historyβ But no algorithm in the world can hide the destruction of the very faith they claim to defend.

@helen_spirit1@owenjonesjourno What a racist sh!t you are, you pinned posted three kids from different ethnic backgrounds and then said you don't want to hear about 'diversity is our strength' again, knowing full well that Britain has fΓ»cked the entire world up over the last few hundred years, incl Africa!
I'm Jewish.
I condemn genocide.
I condemn the Labour Governments role in the Genocide.
The Prime Minister repeatedly conflating criticism of the Israeli Governments genocide and actual antisemitism is disgusting - and makes so many of us as Jewish people feel less safe.
@JewelDank@EthicalRenewal@TiocfaidhArLa66@kennardmatt He was naive at the time, but Corbyn gave into the Zionists too easily. He should have held his ground and dismissed the definition of antisemitism, and then he would have got a lot more votes. Instead people saw it as an admission. But Corbyn was/is not antisemitic.
@JewelDank@RayMatrix01@umyaznemo@kennardmatt@owenjonesjourno They are flags of oppressed countries like Palestine. You are prejudiced against Ukrainians because of Russian partisanship, pathetic!
Your type undermine the cause against oppression, it's why so many battles against the far right have been lost!
@JewelDank@RayMatrix01@umyaznemo@kennardmatt@owenjonesjourno You indirectly or even directly helped Trump to power. You support Putin and therefore the oligarchy there, which has some powerful Zionist members, such as Roman Abramovich. OrbΓ‘n is in this group too.
@JewelDank@RayMatrix01@umyaznemo@kennardmatt@owenjonesjourno You're a crazy extremist Kremlin shite eater! You're essentially a backend Zionist who supported the genocide of the Syrian people, who are ancient cousins of the Palestinians. There's no way nasty scΓΌm like you cares for Palestinians.
@koshercockney@ZackPolanski And you're worse than Nazis like Smotrich, at least they admit it's a genocide. They even brag about it, but Western media conveniently ignore it.
I can see that your Israeli bot farm is busy with the Likes.

Many of the elephants he plays for were rescued from logging or tourism industries.
