When the day awakens, hopes for a wonderful day awaken. I wish my beloved and much appreciated fellow inhabitants of planet Earth a wonderful good morning and a blessed day, accompanied by respect and kindness. May God bless you.❤️💙💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚

This is what the Observer team & I were doing between strikes. Please read it because it couldn’t be more relevant. I interview @asifkapadia.bsky.social about his alarming new film, 2073. It’s a stark warning of where Trump, Musk & Farage are taking us.. www.theguardian.com/film/2024/de...

I wish my beloved and much appreciated fellow inhabitants of planet Earth a wonderful good morning and a blessed day on life's journey. May God bless you and may all your wishes come true.❤️💙💚☘️🌿🌱🌳🌲🍀💚

The Observer strike is about the future of liberal journalism - in the same week when the Murdoch succession drama plays out in court. My column www.prospectmagazine.co.uk/ideas/media/...

“I’m dismayed by both the Guardian’s offloading of the Observer, and the way it is being conducted. It does not reflect the values the Guardian promotes, and that all those who have given so much of their lives to these papers hold dear. (1/2)

Guardian & Observer journalists are entering final day of second 48-hour stoppage; they’ve braved the cold, spoken up for what they believe in to bosses, lost earnings & missed accolades. Please repost, support them on the picket line, donate & don’t click on Guardian links today 👊#SavetheObserver

This letter in today’s Guardian, signed by some of the UK’s finest journalists, warns that The Observer, bought by Tortoise Media, could be stripped of much of its excellent foreign reporting. www.theguardian.com/media/2024/d...

During COVID, the UK newspapers spread fake news without facing consequences. Accountability for misinformation is crucial, especially during a global crisis. 📰⚠️ #FakeNews #Accountability #COVID19

We go again ✊ #savetheobserver

Guardian & Observer journalists are on strike again today & tomorrow. We believe we have a duty to tell readers the truth. Which is that this deal sucks. It’s bad for the Obs, bad for the Guardian. Bad for journalism. Any support you can give us is hugely valued 🙏 nuj.org.uk/savetheobser...

I wish my beloved and much appreciated fellow inhabitants of planet Earth a cozy, wonderful evening and a blessed night. May God bless you❤️💙💚🌿🌱☘️🌳🌲🍀💚

Environmentalism is the most popular political philosophy in Britain Politicians may wish to remember this before they next attack bats / newts / net zero etc bsky.app/profile/youg...

Column on the world according to Kemi Badenoch and precision targeting the empty space between different kinds of voters www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Night thougths 1,277,500 sunrises, 1,277,500 sunsets experienced. The oldest olive tree in the world is on the island of Crete, about 3500 years old. 💚🌱🌿☘️🌳🌲🍀💚 If you think about how many man-made empires have come and gone during this period... just think.🤔

Night thoughts "Nature is not a place to visit. It is home."💚☘️🌱🌿🌲🌳🍀💚 Our leaders, governments and decision-makers should remember this

Grey Herons have the most beautiful feathers. You definitely need patience for a photograph of them preening; they do this for a long time! 🪶🩶 #birds #ukwildlife #naturephotography

Repetition Explaining to children in nature that a tree is alive, that it communicates with other trees, that it breathes in and out, and that trees also sleep at night, creates an understanding, and what children understand they will protect throughout their lives.💚🌱☘️🌿🌳🌲

‘Don’t man up…. Instead ‘…talk, cry, scream’ This is so important & very poignant from @mscaitlinmoran.bsky.social on men taking their ow lives

Credit to whoever thought this one up.. 😄 🏍️

Happy Sunday! Taken earlier this year, I had a wonderful experience watching some Short Eared Owls hunting over the countryside. They really are spectacular birds with an incredible wingspan 🦉🤎 #birds #ukwildlife

Happy weekend! The Kingfisher is definitely my favourite bird to photograph and this gorgeous female was very willing to perch for a while! Just look at her stunning colours and that super sharp beak 🧡🩵🧡 #birds #ukwildlife

A relaxed good morning, a blessed day and a wonderful weekend to my beloved and much appreciated fellow inhabitants of planet Earth. Stay healthy and kind, enjoy the time, may all your wishes come true. God bless you❤️💙💚🌱🌿☘️🌳🌲🍀💚

The spirit, values & ethos of a newspaper doesn’t reside inside a corporate hq with a load of designer chairs. It’s the journalists who embody it. We are the living link to the past & the best chance of survival into the future. You can’t buy or sell that, only treasure or lose it. 1/

In March 2023 Sabs made a shocking discovery – a fox buried alive underground in a sack . It’s the focus of day 6 of my (b)advent counting down the top 20 worst fox hunting crimes with @huntsabs.bsky.social . . . #RealBanNow

Copy and paste . Thank you ‪@tacops.bsky.social‬ for today's #FoxOfTheDay

With Trump moving in it’s more important than ever that we start working hard and fast to restore trading relations with the EU Major new poll reinforces this: 🗳️ Crucially, voters who backed the Tories in 2019 but switched to Labour this year are just as emphatic in their support for closer EU ties

The search for peace and strength finds its fulfilment in the forest. Nevertheless, it is astonishing that while we are relaxing, billions of microorganisms, bacteria, worms and insects are doing their work and providing the basis for our survival in this tranquility.💚🌳🌲🍀💚

NEW: the Scott Trust confirms sale of the Observer. RIP the Guardian. A total betrayal of the staff the organisation’s so-called ‘values’. This is a deal negotiated between 2 chums on a billionaire’s yacht: welcome to the the Guardian’s very own VIP lane

What an achievement for the Jewish state to have created for itself the image of Pharaoh and for its victims the image of the Israelites

Today Guardian and Observer journalists are on strike. Why? GMG insists the Guardian is no one’s pocket and is not beholden to billionaires… but wants to offload the Observer onto Tortoise Media, with opaque funders and a business plan experts say does not add up. #KeeptheFreePressFree
