An 'extreme' risk of wildfires is in place for London this weekend ⚠️ Help prevent wildfires by avoiding using disposable BBQs in parks & open spaces, taking rubbish home with you if no bins are available and disposing of cigarettes carefully.

From losing my older brother to suicide to battling with my own demons with mental health, I can’t express this enough but men’s mental health needs to be spoken about a lot more, the stigma also needs to be dropped, your still a man to talk about your feelings remember that 👊🤘

One photo shows a single, solitary ancient sycamore tree destroyed in an act of eco vandalism that has rightly caused outrage. The other photo shows one of 108 ancient, native woodlands destroyed to make way for HS2. Can we get as angry about this too?
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
HS2 has impacted 15% of 25 ancient woodlands, not destroyed 108. There are approximately 53,000 ancient woodlands sites in England; any major infrastructure project is going to impact some of them. hs2.org.uk/building-hs2/e…

your regular reminder that these are THE ABSOLUTE SAME DRUG and branding something as period pain relief and doubling the price is disgusting
