Brexit is not a done deal – it can still be stopped. Make sure you vote in #EUelections2019. Encourage Remainer friends and family to vote. 6m people signed the #Revoke Art50 petition. 1m marched in London. Send a strong message on 23rd May – we don’t want Brexit!

It’s time for @Sundrop_moth to take the stage here at #CEEDA2019 to talk about her research investigating pollinator conservation. @biouea @uniofeastanglia @NERCscience @CambridgeESS

If a deal is impossible, and no one wants no deal, then who will finally have the courage to say what the only positive solution is?
