So disappointed that the @Borisfloodgrants aren't for all those who flooded this autumn, just those who flooded during a narrow window of time, oh & at least 25 houses in a community had to flood too, or else no 5k grant. 😪
Replying to @floodmary
Why would he? He promised every flooded household would get a resilience grant but then excluded anyone who flooded in Herefordshire. He doesn’t care about anyone other than himself

This is utter genius, and anyone who does not watch it will be deported to our re-education camps on the Isle of Wight.
This week, Extinction Rebellion shut down 60 cities globally. Here's @MrNishKumar's take on it all... #TheMashReport

Regatta has been cancelled 😢 Just shows how fragile our #river is & how easily it's water quality is impacted by how we've built across our landscapes. With rainfall set to get worse as our #climate changes we need to #collaborate on #gree #blue city solutions #Thames #ocean
We are very sorry to announce that Regatta London, due to take place on 29 September, has been cancelled. This is not an action that we have taken lightly and we share the disappointment of everyone due to take part. For full details, please see here - regatta.london/participant-i…
