I am currently pouring thick bleach down my ear canal in the hope of cleansing my brain of this stomach-churning image.

I’m sure it’s occupying pride of place on the White House fridge. Next to the picture of his dad that consumed an entire orange crayon.

*estimated one billion* Simple headline for a simple world view. Plant breeding is one (important) tool, but not an entire solution. Fall out from ‘Green Revolution’; soil degradation, decline in (long term) health & ever increasing inequity/ corruption of western democracy.

1/ *Rant Warning* People are understandably angry at the PM over all this, but my ire is for MPs who would have ultimately voted for the PM's Deal but wanted to extract maximum concessions, political capital and BBC QT appearances out of only doing so on the 3rd or 4th try.

Last week @Riverford founder, Guy Singh-Watson, was presented with the Responsible Capitalism award. But is this concept even possible?

Personal responsibility
Reminds me of an Irish colleague who was reprimanded left/right/centre for pointing out in the press that the Irish food minister was very fat. If people can't control their own weight they shouldn't be lecturing others on how to do it. Simple

Pay attention. Take this extremist ideology & terror threat seriously. Be wary of politicians, academics & media heads who give it a platform and spout it under the guise of "free speech" and fighting "political correctness." Look out for each other. Love each other. END.

We are dealing with angry, disaffected men, mostly White, who find purpose & community with these extremist groups who give them a hero's narrative through violent ideology of White supremacy. They are saving civilization by getting rid of the rest of us. It's like White ISIS 9/

Mate, I'll be honest, I've been trying to keep pace with this for the last two years and I'm at the point where Im basically holding my hands up and going 'what the fuck is even happening anymore.'

Modern farming has desecrated huge swathes of my beloved Lincolnshire.
Soil erosion, Lincolnshire. Such a precious resource - this should be of concern to all.

I’m Jewish. So we’re my parents. My cousins were born and live in Israel. But every fiber of my being rejects Netanyahu’s ugly embrace of second-class status for non-Jewish citizens, including Palestinians. MY people do not believe in oppressing or dispossessing others. Period.

Happy to publish a new, detailed post about #Tusheti in #Georgia. I tried to go beyond the usual travel cliches such as "how to get there and where to sleep" and provide also some more special info :) #Caucasus goo.gl/vWdH8d
