21st February is the deadline for views on development and nature recovery www.gov.uk/government/p...

Please verify that you can afford the royal family. 💰 #AbolishTheMonarchy #NotMyKing

Reform are panicking about people pointing out that they want to replace the NHS. So please don't share this clip of Nigel Farage saying he'd rather healthcare was done through insurance companies.

ok, so basically I'm trying to make this post go viral.

Did u know?Neat & tidy gardens are such tough spaces for wildlife to exist in- less food & less shelter. Leaving nature to do its thing,with a bit of gentle control at the edges means more food, more shelter....more life.This is part of my life-filled wildlife garden in summer. 🌍🪲🌿🌱🕷️🦋🐦‍⬛🪱🦡🐸🦎🦊

I wish @labourlewis.bsky.social was my MP UK climate and nature bill dropped after deal with Labour backbenchers | Green politics | The Guardian search.app/7Jo6dgZtne6m...

Cruel and stupid

Opinion | You have to perform contorted intellectual gymnastics to avoid the word "fascism" which explains the phenomenon we see in front of our eyes 🖋️ @iandunt.bsky.social 🔗 inews.co.uk/opinion/look...

👏 Huge thanks to @simonforstroud.bsky.social, Sir Roger Gale, Roz Savage MP, Simon Hoare MP, @labourlewis.bsky.social, @carladenyer.bsky.social—and all of the #CANBill’s cross-party co-sponsors—for championing the Climate and Nature Bill! 🐝 action.zerohour.uk

What?!?!?

Depressing that a petition to cancel net zero targets and repeal the Climate Change Act has over 10,000 signatures. We need to fight back please sign this one petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

An ironic reminder in todays Times. Driver entitlement kills. 📣 81% of drivers regularly excessively speed. Ironic, 'cos Murdoch's press has always campaigned rigorously for people to drive whatever they want, where-ever they like, whenever they want at whatever speed they choose.

Something needs to be done about grooming gangs and child sexual abuse. Just not what Elon Musk is shouting about. Properly funding the Criminal Justice System and acting on the child sex abuse inquiry we've already had would be a good start www.standard.co.uk/comment/keir...

Here's a petition to sign. It needs a bit of help. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Looking back at 2024 we saw: -Improvements to Eastern Road in Central Romford which finally fixed LCN12. -Plans for Marsh Way. -A cycle route under way from Harold Wood to Brentwood. -The (draft) Active Travel Strategy. Thank you for your ongoing support and a Happy New Year to you all!

The censorship algorithm on Twitter reduced our audience by roughly 95%, and seriously, who does that to a wildlife biology & advocacy group ? So we moved 😇 over here to BlueSky If you could, please help us regain our following Follow Retweet and Repeat ;-) Together we can change the world.

I am so glad i am not working anymore. Only 33% of pregnant women vaccinated. Would make for some horrendous shifts. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It's 20 years since the FoI Act came in! Great achievement by Blair (yay) altho regretted by Straw (boo). Celebrate by sending a FoI question on something you care about

Reminder Tesla has the highest death rate per mile of any make of car, more than double the average. I wonder who recommended this change?

Call your senator, no matter what letter is next to their name! This issue isn't Left vs. Right. www.congress.gov/members/find...

There should be reviews for posters. This scores 10/10, even though the reviews for Climate Breakdown are truly awful. Great campaign from Chris Packham, who is once again on the money. Please consider signing his petition ✍️

Well that is a pathetic response from the government. Get signing everyone so they have to debate it. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

*NEW:* South Western Railway will be back in public control. This Labour Government is delivering on our promise of better rail services for passengers and better value for taxpayers.

Climate Breakdown , now playing across the globe to abysmal reviews . Fossil fuel companies are trashing our planet– it’s why I’m calling on the Government to ban fossil fuel ads and sponsorships– no more greenwashing their dirty reputations with unlimited £££ ! Sign at lovera.ge/ban-ffa

Labour need to wake up to the reality of the world we are in. If they continue to disproportionately put the burden of improving failing public services on the wider population who are already squeezed, they are giving a free pass to the far-right. 👇
