Today is the #Inglorious12th - the start of the red grouse shooting season. This outdated, unjust “sport” is underpinned by crime, and supports nothing but a scorched landscape which is void of balanced biodiversity. Pls RT if you’d like to see an end to this practice - for wildlife and people.

Ok, this is beyond a joke now!! 😡 @NationalHways, PLEASE tell me why your contractors are out mowing down approx. 20 MILES (no joke!) of #wildflowers in the form of Oxeye Daisies, Sainfoin, Red Clover and MANY more, on the side of a straight section of the A1M?? Let’s say this was 5m wide (much wider in places), that’s approx. 160,000sqm (16 hectares or 39.5 acres!) of #wildflowermeadow you’ve single-handedly wiped out overnight! No sight restrictions, no safety concerns. Please have the decency to respond. So much for a #NoMowSummer. Photo taken by a passenger. – at Peterborough, England

Today is #EndangeredSpeciesDay 🐝🦔🦇🦦🐟🦋 Watervoles & bumblebees are just 2 of our network-loving creatures currently listed as #Endangered in the UK 😪 Our 2,000 miles of waterways provide vital habitat for so many species; what are your favourites to see? 🤨

Well I'm frankly fkg disappointed that of all the thousands of people I know on here only 3 have given my #LongCovidAwarenessDay tweet a ping. Can you not see it, or do you not care?? Soz. But I've had a shit time with LC + bereavements & this really rankles. Boooooo. 😖

Superb article from Brindley Sherratt in today’s Guardian. ‘This group is unique and lauded across the classical world. Does the BBC really want to disband such an asset, such an accomplishment?’ theguardian.com/music/2023/m…
No one can match the BBC Singers. Axing them is vandalism | Brindley Sherratt

The ensemble is lauded across the classical world. The BBC Singers inspire, educate and entertain, and their closure matters to us all. Here is why

I am hopefully making a documentary about very young entrepreneurs. Would love to hear about children or very young people who have launched their own businesses (but, like, actually - not businesses that their parents really run). Please RT if you can 🙂

Hilary Mantel's mind was one of the most powerful and magic machines on Earth. We were lucky she wrote as much as she did, but holy hell, it's devastating that we've collectively lost something so astonishing.

Bored? Let's play a game! Retweet once you've spotted the cat so that others can kill some time too. I assure you, the entire cat is there. It's not a bit of a cat hiding behind something or an object that looks a bit like one. It's there. #Cats #CatLover

So it looks like @Choir_NHS Instagram account will be deleted. I have been unable to prove that I run the account as I have no ID that links me to the choir. Bit sad considering I’ve been running it for 10 years! Guess that’s a problem with voluntary work.
