Used to love it here. But like when your local pub gets taken over by a bad landlord, it’s time to find somewhere else.

Spent a few days with some of the last dedicated court reporters in the country, @CourtNewsUK at the Old Bailey, watching cases of cocaine smuggled in bananas and gang murders and wondering why so much of this stuff is never known. For @gdnlongread theguardian.com/news/article…

New report | Did you know Europe could produce 111 bcm of #biomethane by 2040? This amount represents over 30% of the #EU gas consumption in 2022. With the right conditions in place, Europe is ready to seize the significant potential of biomethane.

Abusing your position as Secretary of State to prop up your constituency vote is a breach of the Ministerial Code.
The public rightly expect ministers to serve the British people, and not themselves.
The Environment Secretary needs to address these concerns immediately.

Too many delays, too many distractions.
It’s time for @WolvesCouncil and their contractors to step up - end the two year pay freeze facing Wolverhampton incinerator staff.

@BBCDerby @bbcemt @derbyshire_live @LukeAWalsh @UKWIN_Network the costs just keep coming in Derby to councils with little money!
BREAKING NEWS! Having dragged their feet as long as they could @DerbyCC admit that in 4 years they have spent £10.085,124 MILLION on the closed Sinfin Incinerator - this does NOT include the £36.57 MILLION they paid Resource Recovery Solutions.

Vandaag lanceren we samen met de NVRD de campagne ‘Gooi niet weg… Lever ‘m veilig in!’, die jongeren moet stimuleren lachgascilinders naar de milieustraat te brengen. De cilinders worden sinds januari vaak aangetroffen in het afval, wat gevaar oplevert voor onze medewerkers.

Lightning strike near Oxford (A34). Struck something that burst in to flames.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is a fire at the Severn Trent Green Power Plant at Cassington, north of Oxford, England.
The company said a lightning strike caused one of its biogas tanks to explode.
