If stopping traffic on the M25 to campaign for an end to environmental disaster is punishable with 5 years in prison, what should the sentence be for the fossil fuel barons who are fuelling environmental disaster? 50yrs? 500yrs? What? theguardian.com/environment/…

This sentence is obscene. Why are we punishing the people trying to prevent disaster while allowing the oil company giants causing it to reap super profits?

One of my colonies yesterday, amazing brood pattern, hive full of bees. Barely a drop of nectar or honey. Never seen a year like this one before. #beekeeping #margate .

"And strong and stronger came the sulphury smell,
With demons following in the breath of hell,
Laughing in mockery as the doom'd complain'd,
Losing their pains in seeing others pain'd."

Really great to see the Greens and Lib Dems making gains too. Maybe the news channels could stop inviting Richard Tice and Reform on all the time and reflect the politics of this country.

The news is not getting less surreal.

In today’s Daily Mail: The National Trust has now banned mushrooms, ‘putting thousands of jobs at risk.’ We have not banned mushrooms, nor are we boycotting any fungi. We don’t sell anything grown in peat, but the rest of it is - hallucinatory. dailymail.co.uk/news/article…

Joke might be funnier if these three grotesques of the hard right hadn't been near permanent fixtures on BBC telly for the last decade.

A gentle reminder: The ancient Greek philosophers spent their days painstakingly teasing out the difference between belief and truth, and yet 2,500 years later on, here we fucking are.

It's 2024, I thought we might be past this policy of generalised habitat destruction. @ThanetCouncil, why are you doing this to Dane Park?

A legend tells that when a willow tree heard a mother cat's distressed mewling, it reached its branches into the water to save her drowning kittens. In remembrance of this kindness, wherever their little paws touched its branches, catkins grow. #FairytaleTuesday #nature #folklore
