Rachel Reeves clears planning blockage amid ‘good relationship’ with developer Exclusive: Chancellor says 20,000 homes were being held up due to ‘some snails that are a protected species or something’

She's a nature loss denier -

First of all, 5mm isn't microscopic and you CAN see them.

Second of all, the fact that our Chancellor thinks she can't see these seems to mean she thinks they're not worthy of our consideration.

A hallmark of this government's terminal lack of imagination.

www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Just as corrupt as the Conservatives, and in my opinion even more reckless with nature and the environment.

Even if you don't care about snails, we as human beings rely on nature for our mental and physical health.

This is Labour taking an anti enviromment and anti public health stance for cash.

Congratulations to our CEO, Martin Lines, on receiving the prestigious RSPB Medal, recognising his leadership in conservation. 🎉 This award honours his tireless work for both farmers and nature. 🙌 We’re so proud of you, Martin!

GOS enjoyed a really interesting talk from Dan Jenkins yesterday evening about Green Sandpipers in South East Wales. Many Thanks . #gwentbirds #birdingwales

Earlier this year, Dr. Jane Goodall sat down for an interview for Brad Falchuk’s new Netflix series, Famous Last Words.

The premise of the series is to interview people on the condition that the interview not air until the subject has passed away.

Please help combat BBC news blackout of Green Party!
@zackpolanski.bsky.social was the only party leader not interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg during their party conference.
So please RT his cracking conference speech..

I'm Jewish. I'm also Mancunian.

Every other national party leader was interviewed by Laura Kunesberg during their conference.

Maybe the BBC thought as someone who also supports Palestine - I had nothing to say?

A reminder that we will be holding an indoor meeting this coming Saturday. All are welcome. #gwentbirding #birdingwales

A mass walkout of the UN General Assembly as Netanyahu prepares to speak.

A small flock of Swifts sweep across a clear blue sky, their slim bodies and crescent wings cutting sharply above the roof of a house. A beloved summer sight - and one at risk of disappearing if protections for nature are lost.

The tree you climbed as a child. Gone. The Swifts over your town. Gone. The air you breathe. Polluted. The river. Unsafe.

This is the reality of deregulation.

Cutting protections would mean disaster for nature & our economy.

Welsh Government under fire for failing to implement gamebird regulations amidst heightened risk of bird flu The RSPB has, justifiably, grown tired of waiting for the Welsh Government to implement regulations on the release of millions of non-native gamebirds (Pheasants and Red-legged Partridges) and want…

@rspbcymru.bsky.social calls on Ministers to act on advice received from NRW 2 years ago (!) for proper controls & oversight of gamebird releases. They don't even know how many are released, other than 'millions'.

While I understand the BBC’s imperative to provide balance in stories, at times it can feel completely ludicrous. Data vs one person’s entirely anecdotal opinion isn’t balance.

What a phenomenal waste of time and money this project was. @naturalengland.bsky.social you should be ashamed of yourself! 🤬🤬

Police hurt during Tommy Robinson's Unite the Kingdom rally in London Some 25 arrests are made after

Last year 100,000 people marched across London in support of nature and BBC News didn’t cover it, leading to complaints to Ofcom about political bias. Today BBC News covered a similar size march on front pages and every channel demonstrating fully its political bias. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

In what feels like the 100th story this week of how Wales is falling behind on environmental regulation and action to combat natural decline, the Welsh Government are dithering on regulation of gamebird release.

Millions of invasive birds are released into the Welsh countryside annually. Enough.

🗣️"No-one should have issues with farmers, it's the system"

Our CEO, James Wallace at the UK's very first Wild Summit today.

It’s time to END the false choice between food production and nature. We must work together to transition towards truly sustainable farming. 🚜💚

Mae tocynnau ein Cynhadledd ar werth i bawb. Dilynwch gyngor @iolowilliams.bsky.social ac fe’cg gwelwn yn Aberystwyth ar Hydref 25ain!
