I write for numerous publications, including village newsletters. In fact it's where I often get the most engagement or feedback. You can really make a difference in your local community by raising awareness of important issues #WhatMillyDoesBest #LocalNews #AnchorWoman

Ireland’s mooted cow massacre is a warning to Britain - the Irish government plans to cull at least 200,000 of its famous dairy cows in a desperate bid to help the country meet its Net Zero climate targets. The move will lead to shortages across Europe. telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/06…

Swifts are my favourite bird, yet their populations are collapsing. Swift bricks are a cheap & easy way to protect our bird species - I’m urging Govt to make them compulsory in new homes. Great to meet @writerhannahbt ahead of Parliament debate, who worked so hard to secure it!
