There's so much more we could be doing however. But, despite that, this is more than a little inconvenient for Farage & Reform, as well as Badenoch, and their anti-/scrap net zero rhetoric. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Sunshine for 3 days running and my new battery is charging up nicely. Reform want to ban batteries. Idiots. They will add £s to our energy costs.

In good news, my husband lost his keys yesterday and they were found at doctors. I lost mine today and they were handed into library. Some kind souls still exist.

WORLD’S RICHEST MAN BUYING OUR DEMOCRACY! Elon Musk is set to pump £78m into Nigel Farage’s party—a sum that would allow Reform to flood our politics with targeted ads. Maybe other countries allow billionaires to buy elections, but not here! act.38degrees.org.uk/act/britain-...
