"Picturesque river polluted with sewage just 13 days after being given official bathing status."

Yep the River Avon at Salisbury was designated as a bathing spot on 15th May and just 13 days later on the 28th the EA have to issue a pollution warning due to E. coli levels. What a shambles.

"Welsh Water faces £44.7m 'enforcement package' for sewage failings."

The most abhorrent part in all of all of this is that Ofwat has just admitted that since 1994 when the sewage treatment regulations were introduced Welsh Water, like every other sewage company in the UK have been breaking the law.

That's 37 years of illegal activity, 37 years of incompetence, 37 years of failure, 37 years of the gross, violent, decimation of our rivers and beaches.

Where's the justice for them, where's the justice for bill players, where's the accountability, why aren't Ofwat's board now being prosecuted for misconduct in public office?

Let me categorically Debunk this utter rot. @sainsburys.

I am a poultry Breeder. The hens that lay white eggs (Amberline/White Star) DO NOT have a lower carbon footprint.

Yes they eat a bit less and produce roughly the same amount of eggs as the Brown egg layers (Bovan/Lowman/ISA Brown) but they live shorter lives, are prone to dying suddenly when startled, a flighty and nervous and because they live shorter productive lives (12 -18mnths) vs brown 18/24mnths (both commercial farmed), you have to incubate more which is increased (Electricity/gas costs) and their eggs are not the same quality.

I breed and keep 20+ different breeds, including: ISA Brown hens and White Stars. All my hens are 100% free range, Not a single barn kept bird, I have ISA browns that are 5yrs old and still laying beautiful Brown eggs, I have not seen a White star live beyond 3yrs and certainly none have laid eggs past 18-24mnths.
White stars Lay themselves to death. They are slender birds and because they dont eat a lot, it drains their personal vitality to keep up laying the eggs you want to sell because of the nonsensical lie that they are "More Carbon Neutral"

You want to know about eggs, come talk to someone like me, Don't rely on some hairbrained imagination of a buyer who's trying to squeeze the profit margin for a few extra pennies at our expense and to the poor hens detriment.

STOLEN. Overnight from outside my home in Canterbury. Honda CB500. V329DPN. They cut through the security chain. Reported to Police. Please repost. I am not optimistic about getting it back but the more people who see this post the more chance there is.

A very lovely and competent student paramedic recently told me that the average career on ambulances post qualification is 7 years.
7 years. Thats it.
My brain has been going over this over and over and thinking what a total bloody waste of talent that is.
Then I read paramedics are being asked to take voluntary redundancy.

This is terrifying. It translates “there will be some people who really need dignity and independence” because - let’s be clear - that is what PIP gives disabled claimants.

This is what entitlement looks like! 🤬
There are nesting waterbirds on this pond on Hampstead Heath... there are also big 'No Swimming' signs, all being totally ignored! 🤬
Pure selfishness... 😒🤬🤬

Today is a difficult day for us. I did say I would be a lot more active here but today hasn’t worked out so well.

We have 6 air conditioning units on the go and it’s not enough.

We need to be here and changing ice packs every 2 hrs to keep the buns cool.

Rabbits can tolerate cold
Far better than heat. Anything above 27c is deemed unsafe, with a higher chance of fatal heat stroke. As you can see we are 10 degrees above the safe zone.
Air con units are expensive, so we are thinking that these fans have great reviews and will help
Move the air conditioned air to the further ends of the buildings.
We’ve added them to the wish list in hopes that the community can help keep the buns cool
❤️❤️❤️

Police pensions suddenly changed affecting the future of 1000s

Proof, if needed, that Govts dont care about or understand 'the job' & the silence from senior leaders is deafening

Don't talk about #wellbeing if you're missing in action when it matters!

🚨 NEW: The Government will review the sentencing of three teenage boys after they avoided jail for raping two girls, including one at knife point

Two of the boys received youth rehabilitation orders while the judge praised their behaviour in court

[Police Federation of England and Wales @PFEW_HQ]

1/ Police officers who gave decades of service to this country have just had their retirement plans ripped up overnight.

The Government has quietly cut the lump sums available to retiring officers in the 1987 Police Pension Scheme - with immediate effect. 🧵

[TC🌳 @WoodlandNomad]

Judge Nicholas Rowland said the boys are 'very young', had low intelligence, a 'limited understanding of consent' & were susceptible to 'peer pressure’

If they are too stupid to understand that raping girls at knifepoint is wrong that’s more reason to lock them up, or hang them.

[Ian Acheson 🇬🇧☘️ @NotThatBigIan]

Just so you're all aware of what you're paying about £200milion a year for. HMPPS has launched a programme called 'Enable.' This is to 'enable' new recruit prison officers not to have sex with prisoners. You could make this up, but you'd have to be drunk.

A lot of newer followers often ask me who Tina was, the dog that means so much to me.

This is her beautiful story

A lot of older followers will also enjoy seeing her big, beautiful face I'm sure.

I was out for a jog last night and spotted this boy.

He is tiny and I could tell he was utterly broken from living on the streets.

I couldn’t get him out of my head so we went back today… (1/7) 🧵

Must view. An indictment of senior officers who, from the comfort of their offices, insist on their front-line officers being single crewed.
