NEW: we need to talk about UK graduate wages, and the idea that Britain sends too many people to university. American readers should stick around for the UK/US comparisons 👀 Let’s start with this: the UK graduate wage premium has fallen substantially over the last 25 years

On a stunning morning in Meath we've gathered at Dowth Hall to announce the establishment of Ireland's first new National Park in 25 years. The archeological and built and natural heritage value of the Boyne Valley Brú na Bóinne World Heritage National Park will be unsurpassed.

One of Europe's largest lakes is an ecological disaster zone of biblical proportions. Where Moses turned the Nile to blood with a staff, Stormont turned Lough Neagh to toxic green paint with stupid policies - & 40% of NI's drinking water comes from here. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/opini…

Lough Neagh has become a scene of Biblical disaster, and Stormont was central to its destruction

Northern Ireland gets more than 40% of its drinking water from Lough Neagh which is polluted with deadly cyanobacteria. It’s one of Europe’s largest waterways and now it’s slowly dying.

My ex-silage field, 8 yrs on, this #meadow usually peaks end of June/ early July. For now, it's alive with Yellow rattle, Red clover, Ox-eye daisies & Common sorrel. The Red clover smells incredible in the evening sunshine. So good to see & hear #bumblebees & other #pollinators
