In the summer I wrote to @Keir Starmer to ask that Reform have some representation in the House of Lords, He didn't give me the courtesy of a response, despite Reform winning the elections in May. This makes me more determined to smash the political establishment than ever

Beautiful, wild old oaks.

So much for "taking back control", apparently the rule is: deport themβ¦ but only after weβve squeezed some cheap labour out of them.
A masterclass in hypocrisy!
This is significant: Nigel_Farageβs campaign manager on camera admitting they spent 2x the legal limit.

As Jake rightly points out, this is a fraction of the overall farming budget & not what was originally promised

Landscapes like this should be central to natureβs recovery but without proper support and clear targets, protected sites canβt deliver what theyβre supposed to.

Protected sites can and should be driving natureβs recovery.
But todayβs OEP report exposes the real problem: years of weak delivery, underfunding and political drift have left them unable to do the job the law intended.
Nigel Farage used an LBC appearance in September to accuse the Bank of England of being βdinosaursβ for seeking to place restrictions on the use of Stablecoins by crypto firms like Tether.
