As bad as your day might be, it could be worse, you could be the person who accidentally published the OBR's budget document a couple of hours early: obr.uk/docs/dlm_upl...

No place is safe in the Ukraine.

Deadly attacks in Western Ukraine are a stark reminder that no part of the country is safe.

States should not refuse protection or assistance to Ukrainians on the basis that some parts of Ukraine are safe.

Inside Ukraine, UNHCR remains on the ground, helping the most affected.

This is the thing to hang onto - I’m glad people are appalled by Farage’s Nazi sympathies now, but the fact is, he was able to present TV programmes and constantly appear as a sofa guest for decades, booked by people who knew it all. We must reckon with that.

Michael Gove Made Orwell Prize Judge Despite Record of Attacking Journalists and Dodging Scrutiny Critics say "Orwell would have enjoyed the irony" of the former Conservative minister's appointment

I’m a past winner of the Orwell Prize & won partly because I exposed Vote Leave’s unlawful activities.

Michael Gove was its co-convener & refused to answer a single q. He’s now a judge of the prize & our world is truly one that Orwell would recognise

On the move! An Isle of May Kittiwake has just been recovered from Peamiut, Greenland, some 1,710 miles away as the blog explains: isleofmaynnr.wordpress.com

Every day the #BBC uncritically platform dark money funded right-wing voices. Examples include the Institute of Economic Affairs, the Taxpayers' Alliance & the ridiculous right-wing contrarians Spiked. Time to call time on media representation without knowing who pays the bills.

NEW BLOG - the RBBP reviews what species we should collect data on regularly. Here’s an explanation of what we consider when species are removed, and why Avocet and Mediterranean Gull are staying on our list, for now rbbp.org.uk/2025/11/25/r...

'Nigel Farage's Plan to Scrap Nature Protections Would Speed 'Demise' of UK Countryside'

Reform UK’s vow to scrap thousands of nature laws risks pushing Britain’s depleted countryside into irreversible decline, argues Stuart Spray

We all know that literary prizes are 'sick of experts'.

BREAKING: This is huge news, the EU's equivalent of the 🇺🇸Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges ruling.

🇪🇺Court of Justice just ruled all 🇪🇺countries must recognise same-sex marriages granted in other member states.

This effectively legalises gay marriage across 🇪🇺

Feral cats to be added to Predator Free 2050 The Government is delivering on its campaign promise to add feral cats to the Predator Free 2050 target species list to protect our precious native wildlife, Conservation Minister Tama Potaka says.

GREAT NEWS in #conservation: the government of New Zealand has announced that they will include feral cats in their PredatorFree 2050 strategy, aiming to benefit #seabirds and landbirds across NZ by removing feral cats:

"Second, we need to enforce the policy with a vigour that has reduced flows at America’s southern borders by 90 per cent, and in Denmark by 95 per cent. Crucial to the Trump programme is an aggressive policy of removals, including snatching suspected illegals off the street. One friend tells me Latino parents are now so afraid to be seen out and about that the other parents have a rota to walk the Latino children to and from school. It is hard to imagine that taking place in Britain."

Just a jaw-dropping paragraph in Trevor Phillips's column for The Times.

This is a policy that, by his own account, has left parents of a particular race too frightened to walk their children to school.

And that's the example he chooses of the "vigour" we "need".

Even better, be more like the constitutional republics that have qualified for the World Cup and ditch this archaic birth-based system of privilege for good.

Amazing thread about Toronto's Orange Order.
When I went there in 1990 I was told that the only Irish pubs in Toronto were run by Orangemen (I can't say for certain if this was true but it was certainly rumoured).

A good news #Seabirds story for your feed. Got to love Phillip Island off Norfolk- South Pacific. It keeps turning up surprises!

Mull's 1940s romantic comedy that brought Gaelic to cinema I Know Where I'm Going was made 80 years ago but still has an impact today.

“I know where I’m going “ is a great film but good to see Werner Kissling’s use of Gaelic in his 1935 documentary also acknowledged www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Stunning Red-footed Falcon 'mega roost' documented in Hungary More than 5,000 Red-footed Falcons formed a single night roost in Hungary’s Hortobágy National Park in September 2025, a record for the Carpathian Basin that underlines the area's importance for migratory raptor conservation.

An extraordinary 'mega roost' of thousands of Red-footed Falcons has been documented in Hungary this autumn:
