Robbie Kernahan, director of green economy at NatureScot said he "can't answer" why the Guga hunt - where Gannets are beaten to death for a tradition - is happening in 21st century Scotland. Ironically, that speaks volumes.

The government tell us to turn our heating down and eat less red meat for net zero. Yet they ram through gigantic hyperscale data centres that consume as much electricity in 24 hours as roughly 89 average streets use over an entire year. We are being treated like suckers.

Anyone ever find out what happened to our ยฃ28,000,000,000 spent on Test & Trace which didnโ€™t really work or the billions spent on PPE which had to be burnt because it was out of date or unsuitable? And what happened to the charming Michell Mone, still on her yacht?

The hidden cost of the spring silage cut: ๐Ÿšœ๐Ÿ’” Intensive late-spring cutting destroys thousands of nesting birds like Skylarks. Instead of turning a blind eye, simple changes like thermal imaging and wildlife-safe cutting patterns can save generations. ๐Ÿฆ

๐Ÿ’” THIS IS HEARTBREAKING. COULD DARTMOOR TRULY LOSE ITS PONIES? ๐Ÿด๐Ÿ“‰ A devastating warning has been issued by campaigners who fear that up to NINETY PERCENT of Dartmoorโ€™s iconic semi-wild hill ponies could completely disappear from the moorland. Over 23,000 people have already signed an emergency petition demanding action to protect them. New rules drawn up by Natural England mean that grazing limits across the moors are being slashed. But here is the catch: campaigners say the famous ponies are being lumped into the exact same livestock quotas as commercial cattle and sheep. Because they are competing for the same reduced space, it's feared farmers will be forced to remove the ponies to make way for more financially viable livestock. The Dartmoor Hill Pony Association warns that numbers have already plummeted from 7,000 to just 900 in the last 25 years. They are already listed as an officially endangered native breed. Campaigners warn that once they are gone from the moor, they are gone forever. Natural England says they want to ensure "optimal numbers" remain and that ponies are vital for restoring the landscapeโ€”but officials confirm they must be included in the total livestock count. Dartmoor simply wouldnโ€™t be Dartmoor without the ponies. Do you think itโ€™s fair to treat these historic animals the same as farm livestock? ๐Ÿ“ธ Ben Ivory / Getty Images

Gannets raise just one chick a year, but the Guga hunters kill them for a sick tradition. This has to stop.
