In the wake of the global Microsoft outage, the NCSC is recommending that everyone exercises caution around unexpected calls and messages, especially those containing links.
For advice on how to recognise & report suspicious messages, websites & calls⬇️

ALT Microsoft outage: We recommend vigilance against scam calls and approaches impersonating IT help desks or Microsoft. Scammers often exploit current news stories, try to quickly gain your trust, and aim to pressure you into acting without thinking. Visit the NCSC's website for more guidance on spotting and reporting suspicious communications.

The legal right to wild camp on Dartmoor has been upheld, in a decision that is likely to reignite the debate over public access to land in England: bbc.in/4k5wdmz

My report from court today: People who go on Dartmoor have to be on foot or on horseback at all times unless they get landowner permission according to lawyers acting for a wealthy landowner who wants to ban wild camping theguardian.com/environment/…

Now we are hearing from Richard Honey KC who is acting for the Dartmoor National Park Authority. He argues "recreation" is mentioned multiple times in the legislation, NOT just walking and horse-riding - those are the methods you reach the commons for recreation

Fantastic to have cross-party support at our @Right_2Roam @EveryonesStars rally outside Supreme Court: from Labour MP @AndyMacNaeMP, Lib Dem MP @CarolineVoaden (who represents part of Dartmoor), & ex-Green MP @CarolineLucas - with more to come!

The awesome @RobGMacfarlane speaking at the @Right_2Roam @EveryonesStars rally ‘It’s a tragedy that we’re having to fight against the extinction of access rather than for the extension of access… Labour need to make good on their earlier pledges of a right of responsible access”

"Democracy arrives late to the countryside, in some cases not at all"
A great piece by @GeorgeMonbiot on England's obscure Internal Drainage Boards, their dominance by landowners, and the sway they have over whether fields or front rooms are flooded:

The situation is worse if you have the details and fail to act upon them. Especially as the evidence is still currently not moving as unsold for the moment.

@metpoliceuk I have contacted the correct owner of the racing car to let him know that I have been contacted and offered the car since he reported the details to and location to you. It would be a shame for the car to go missing again or passed on as stolen if you fail to act.

Hi @metpoliceuk I’ve been offered a stolen racing car to buy that is in London, the owner has reported and confirmed it is their property a few days ago with you. With a name and address, are you going to do anything about it? It’s been missing for 5 1/2 years.

The Northern Lights could be seen from the UK over the next couple of nights, if skies clear.
Minor or moderate geomagnetic storms are probable with the forecast arrival of a fast solar wind that is due to reach the Earth this weekend

👀 What a contrast to this day last year
The 18th July 2022 saw Wales set a new national temperature record of 37.1°C
Today's top temperature at Hawarden Airport was over 20 degrees Celsius lower!
