There are many good people in the The Green Party, and some good ideas as well.

UK - Gipton and Harehills in Leeds, has been won by the … erm ….Green Party.

Here the winning candidate makes it clear what his agenda is and it certainly doesn’t sound like it’s the environment “Allahu Akbar”

The media has neglected to show you this council result.

In 2015, 2016 and 2021, the threat to democracy and pluralism was white, high school-educated, conspiracy-believing bigoted white men in their fifties who came from limited financial means.

A single gang of poachers may have killed 10% of Javan rhinos since 2019.

Deliberately driving a whole species to extinction should be ranked among the gravest crimes it’s possible to commit.

Hatay province is like a war zone for migratory birds of prey – with hundreds being massacred every day!
