Another heartbreaking piece on #AutumnWatch about avian flu killing millions and millions of birds yet the huge elephant in the room again not being addressed... Where the flu comes from. That was the time to say it.
Poultry markets and factory farms. That's where it comes from.

There are basically no "ethical" means to acquire a fortune of £730,000,000
Rishi Sunak's wealth is not "aspirational" – it is not a "success story." Fortunes like £730,000,000 are, nearly always stories of tax evasion, contract corruption, and political influence.

Why does Military Industrial Complex get a free pass despite causing 6% of all global #Emissions.? - #Africa with 1.2 Billion people has less than 4%. War is a Disaster- Without Peace we will not have a stable Climate but #US + #EU are hooked on War - A #ClimateChange Steroid....

Last of all Húrin stood alone. Then he cast aside his shield, and wielded an axe two-handed; and it is sung that the axe smoked in the black blood of the troll-guard of Gothmog until it withered, and each time that he slew Húrin cried: ‘Aurë entuluva! Day shall come again!’

'Explain what you mean by Woke & then we can have the conversation'. Incredibly put by @RakieAyola.
This should be the response to every commentator, Journalist & MP who've become far too comfortable throwing the Term 'Woke' into every one of their dog whistle opinions

Politics aside, one has to acknowledge that Sunak sends a powerful message to people of colour - if you go to public school, amass a fortune, become the richest MP in parliament and with your wife have a joint asset worth larger than the King’s, you too can become prime minister.

Huge to have the first PM of colour - it only took running twice, losing the first time, not actually being elected the second time, two PM resignations, the shortest serving PM in history and an entire economic meltdown to shunt him into number 10. A proud moment.
