"If you're under 25 your brain isn't fully developed, so you can't be trusted to make informed decisions" I'm seeing this a LOT lately, especially today. And it's utter guff, based on hearsay, misunderstandings of neuroscience, or wilful ignorance. Why? I'll tell you why /1

When you see the sheer scale of the murder of civilians in #Gaza, the mass destruction of homes, infrastructure, public services, centres of learning, religious and cultural buildings and symbols, I'm sorry, but it's now impossible to see this as anything other than #genocide.

It is said dissent is the foundation of liberty. And yet the travesty of justice that took place today at Southwark Crown Court speaks to a democracy that is in danger of forgetting that at its peril. We must not be numb to how extreme the sentences handed out today to peaceful

Worst year ever for butterflies (no surprise). Yes to finally banning neonicotinoids but a reminder that neonics are widely available in bug sprays from garden centres and supermarkets for home use. "No exceptions" means banning them too Butterfly Conservation 🦋 theguardian.com/environment/20…

Chair of Natural England warns that disappearance of butterflies is a sign of the collapse of our life support systems Seems like the sort of warning worth listening to theguardian.com/environment/20…

Where are all the butterflies? Years of habitat destruction, climate breakdown and pesticide use have taken their toll. If we're to restore nature and save our butterflies and moths we must act now. Sign our letter to Steve Reed MP 👉 butterfly-conservation.org/emergency #ButterflyEmergency
