Every single non-disabled person who is supporting the PIP cuts should be handed a £15k “disability costs” bill each year and asked how they plan on paying it. Because people don’t really need benefits? You can find £15k on top of rent, food, utilities and your summer hol? Right?

I’m sorry, the DWP announcing “don’t worry, the benefits u-turn means only 150,000 people will be pushed into poverty now!” is just insane. Cruel, incompetent ghouls who shouldn’t be allowed to run a bath let alone a system sick people rely on to live.

Lovely Ringlet Butterfly in the garden this evening

Jeremy Corbyn - an MP for 42 years - has been on #bbcqt 5 times (twice on 'Leader's specials'). Nigel Farage - an MP for less than a year - has been on 38 times. Zarah Sultana - an MP for 6 years - has never been on. Tell me again how BBC Question Time is fair and impartial.

27 people — including a priest, professor and health workers — were arrested today under terrorism laws. Their crime? Peacefully holding signs opposing genocide. This is how we sleepwalk into fascism.

Found a couple of sharks washed up on Southport beach today, I think Smooth Hound

I've lived here 17 years and last night for the first time ever I heard a Tawney Owl calling!! Quite exciting!

Sometimes you get involved with something simply because you know it is a very good thing. Yesterday we launched a free app called the Wildling, aimed at making access to Nature and all the things it has to offer easy,..wether its free fun,mental health and wellbeing benefits or

Lots of bees and butterflies in the garden today including this Large Skipper (it is NOT large), which I think is a garden first

Kind of loving Oscar Branning so far 😂 #EastEnders

A Gatekeeper in the garden as I left for work, only the second I've recorded here. A good start to the #BigButterflyCount

I miss Holby, worst decision ever to cancel it

Just had a Whitethroat in the garden, rare visitor here!

Marvellous stuff #Lionesses 👏👏👏

Most questions I've ever answered tonight, about six 😂 well done to Southampton though! #UniversityChallenge

Our partners at Pesticide Action Network UK have uncovered that 354 tonnes of pesticides were sprayed in towns and cities in 2024. We are in a #ButterflyEmergency, with long-term declines that need us all to take action to reduce the use of harmful chemicals, councils included.

It's been over a year now since I started the new walk to work, I've seen 55 species of birds, several butterflies, a couple of dragonflies, lots of bugs & plants. The Kestrels I see have 2 young again this year & currently there are Cinnabar moth caterpillars all over. 1/2

2/2 Of course I'm plagued by construction & the ponds where the Swans & ducks were have been drained & a new distribution centre is being built, at least they waited until the Lapwings had finished breeding I suppose. 😬

If anything, this manufactured M&S trans panic lays bare the absurdity & cruelty of anti-trans obsessives. Spreading wilful misinformation about a non-incident to criminalise an innocent worker simply for appearing to be trans is both disgraceful and dangerous.
