Priceless from @DailyMailUK Great supporters of English water privatisation they’ve reported the dumping of raw sewage into a Cornish bay by quoting a parody account run by a spoof MP from a non existent constituency. What journalism! @MichaelTakeMP
Ever wondered what happens to pollution once it flows into the ocean? For my latest @Costingtheearth, I look beneath the blubber to investigate how chemical pollution impacts porpoises, dolphins, whales and our seas. On @BBCRadio4 tomo and @BBCSounds https://t.co/ZSBxzFtlQg
I voted against fracking in the Commons tonight. During that vote I saw things I’ve never seen, like the Deputy Prime Minister, physically pick up an upset Tory MP & put him in the division lobby. Unbelievable scenes. Bullying like nothing I’ve seen in my 7 years as an MP.

Chris Packham on what the response should be to the government's raft of new environmental policies

So Liz Truss has just dished out a peerage and trade minister job to a multi-millionaire Tory donor... who co-founded Jacob Rees-Mogg’s fossil fuel-tied investment fund
She has absolutely no shame, does she?
No, Truss doesn’t have a mandate for tax cuts for the wealthy funded by cuts to public services but the truth is the Tories don’t have a mandate for anything now. It’s time we had a general election.
Depressing example of @trussliz malign influence. And while royal source says “He had to think very carefully about what steps to take for his first overseas tour”, truth is that attending #COP27 to mobilise #climate action would be exactly *right* choice https://t.co/PGp7rlt7G9
“We could have a 1997 type result.”
Conservative MP Charles Walker tells @cathynewman results from the latest polls suggest his party could be wiped out at the next election.
So, this scrap of woodland squashed between houses and the hospital in central Bristol is to become an 8 storey building. It’s my patch of wild, my soul food in the city. We cannot ever leave anything to just be what it is. Just trees. So angry, so sad. @uhbwNHS
@MrBreakspear @Aiannucci Yeah kinda bemused by the heat this is getting. Pork belly is scrumptious. Except, of course, thanks to her trade deals, most of us will be eating meat slaughtered over on New Zealander premises...: https://t.co/8YYh5YprlM
Extraordinary exchange on Russian state TV’s top talk show about Ukraine. Military analyst & retired colonel Mikhail Khodarenok tells anchor Olga Skabeyeva “the situation for us will clearly get worse…we’re in total geopolitical isolation…the situation is not normal.”
