Swifts have declined 70% since 1994.

They fly from Africa to breed here, only to find we've blocked their nest sites.

A ยฃ35 swift brick nest box was proposed for all new buildings.

The construction industry lobbied Labour to block it.

Biodiversity sustains life. Labour sustains economic power.

Here in Scotland my young granddaughter was excited to tell me about how pleased she was about Mamdani's election win, and why.

Yet this Labour cabinet minister claims never to have heard of him. Out of touch, or simply avoiding having to comment?

Trump Quietly Dishes Out More Tax Breaks to Rich Investors While Slashing Food Aid for Millions | Common Dreams "Why would corporations spend millions on Trump's ballroom or Bitcoin? Because they're getting billions in unlegislated tax breaks," said one Democratic lawmaker.

Inside the Cover-up: How Prince Andrew was exposed Behind the headlines lies a deeper story of privilege, protection and a public kept in the dark

Andrew Lownie wrote an explosive book about Prince Andrew

Then came the backlash. Legal threats. Palace sources told journalists not to speak to him

Anonymous social media accounts accused Lownie of visiting sex workers.

The bombshell report from the UNโ€™s human rights expert on the Occupied Palestinian territories, Francesca Albanese, says that the government lied about spy flights over Gaza being about hostage rescue, that the UK played โ€œa key role in military collaboration with Israel."

Sir Keir Starmer has been specifically named in a UN report for complicity in Israel's genocide.

The report states that the UK government played "a key role in military collaboration with Israel... a collective crime... with detailed knowledge and cooperation in the destruction of Gaza." ๐Ÿงต

Trump also just released the guy who lied to the FBI about the Bidens taking bribes.

He has ties to Russian intelligence โ€” and Trumpโ€™s businesses.

Again: The law does not apply to them.

Itโ€™s a curious dark witchcraft that still has 30% of the British public enchanted with Farage, a man who appears to engineer disaster in order to proffer further disaster as a remedy. Like a national munchausen's by proxy.

Have to say.. very tired of this now. We all know Brexit is a shitshow. Nothing is better. No one is happier.
No one who really cared about our country or understood how anything actually worked would do this and then stand around scratching their heads at the mess.

โ€˜The SNP isnโ€™t a threat to the Security of any Nation I want to be part ofโ€™
โ€˜Labour's attempts to brand the Scottish National Party a threat to the UKโ€™s national security is a drastic escalation of Labourโ€™s anti-independence rhetoric, argues Adam Ramsayโ€™

In New Jersey, a single mother struggled to figure out how to feed her two young sons with $50.
In Oklahoma, a 61-year-old woman questioned whether driving to a food pantry was worth the gas money.
And in Colorado, a woman grabbed food from a Walmart dumpster.

October 2025 had the highest number of Israeli settler attacks since we began tracking them in 2006.

One in every five Palestinians that Israeli forces killed so far in 2025 across the #WestBank was a child.

If this evidence ever sees the light of day, I want prosecutors, judges, and juries to see it, but I have absolutely no interest in viewing any of it.

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.
