Today's devastating decision by the government not to pay compensation to millions of wronged #WASPI women is shameful. Coming at a time when trust in politicians has never been lower, it will only undermine public trust in the PHSO process.

Spangles and Curly-Wurleys? 😂😂
I thought this was a @privateeyenews.bsky.social spoof, but no, it’s just a former British Prime Minister’s latest embarrassing twattery.

It’s as if we once decided to give Alan Partridge the nuclear codes for 3 years as part of a drunken bet.

An important read...

“There are now more people whose hobby is wildlife photography, rather than wildlife watching, and I suspect that they have not been brought up with the same attention to ethics and fieldcraft.”

We’re "Chough-ed" to share that Choughs have had a record summer! 🌊

55 pairs bred in Cornwall, raising 108 ‘Choughlets’. RSPB Ramsey Island & South Stack in Wales also saw more breeding pairs than ever.

From near extinction to a record year—this is conservation at its best!
