Interesting. As the Greens surge, Reform loses share. Populist Zack Polanski provides further evidence that the election rulebook is gone for good

Please sign & share. Rachel Reeves is wavering on taxing Big Banks, rather than citizens, to help plug the hole in the Nation's finances. Help Labour make the right decision for once, to be on the side of the people rather than abetting corporate capital you.38degrees.org.uk/petitio…

Find Out Now poll tracker. Zack Polanski smashing Labour & deservedly so. He leads with principle whilst Kier Starmer u-turns on every principle he ever claimed he had - planning to kill badgers for ever, along with every animal that stands in his corporate path. Bring it on Zack

Labour plan to trash our environment and our wildlife. If you lack principle as a guiding force, as Kier Starmer does, it is inevitable that you will flail around seeking solace from corporations, developers & their ilk. Well, would you trust Kier Starmer? protectthewild.substack.com/…

Pigs are extremely intelligent & highly sentient. Concerns remain that humane killing for meat simply isn't possible. If you ever have the misfortune to observe the screaming & panic of pigs being gassed by CO2, you just might stop bringing home the bacon nationalpigassociation.co.uk…

Myself, along with PVA colleagues, are very concerned about the CMA's Provisional Decision Report into the vet sector. No breaking up of duopolies or monopolies. No generic drugs to reduce costs to the public. A blueprint for a full corporate takeover? vettimes.com/news/business/p…

It's fundamentally important that the current CMA investigation into vets is fair. Only allowing the big 6 Corporate chains, and not Indy's, to view unredacted information is their very bad plan. Support honesty and Independent Practices by signing this chng.it/ZjKczrhSHh

Say No to Digital ID: Launching his Digital ID policy before the Labour Conference may have seemed a good idea to Kier Starmer, but with a Labour rebellion and sigs for this petition going up by 1 million a day, he looks gauche & out of touch. Please S & S petition.parliament.uk/petit…

Man brutalises cats, badgers and dogs and gets a 10 month jail sentence. The courts are still failing animals nationwide by failing to impose the requisite maximum sentence. The FBI states that those who harm and abuse animals often also harm children. vettimes.com/news/vets/small…

Would a Police and Crime commissioner take cash from the Countryside Alliance in order to support fox "trail' hunting, stonewall FOI requests, and then organise a "sham" investigation to cover his tracks? 🤔 Surely not, perish the thought... bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg57…
