As someone who has suffered several major episodes of #depression, including a short spell in hospital, I offer my heartfelt condolences to the family of the great #grahamthorpe. There is life on the other side. Hang on to hope @LifeAfloat @Rethink_ @mind
"They want to heighten the awareness of the illness that took him, but also want to emphasise that his life should not be defined by that. There was far, far more to him than that."
Graham Thorpe's family have shared their memories of the great man in a moving piece in today's edition of The Times.

#Boycott @eatdrinkmb pubs until they apologise and pay reparations for the wanton destruction of the 500 year old oak #tree in #London @ZackPolanski @GeorgeMonbiot theguardian.com/environment/…?
@EvanHD @amolrajan @vicderbyshire could someone please mention the approx £40billion tax gap, when a minister next mentions the "moral imperative" of cutting #disab

Yorkshire Water please can you give me a contact email to allow me to make a suggestion in relation to birds on land you own at Broadstone Reservoir, between Holmfirth and Penistone. Thanks.
Apparently “a lot has changed“ since @RachelReevesMP opposed the expansion of @LBIAirport No #climatecrisis to see now #r4today
@UnileverUKI is there really nearly 15g salt in a 250g portion of unileverfoodsolutions.co.uk/…?

From October until April, grouse shooting estates will set fire to northern England's fragile peat moorlands.
This practice poses a threat to nature, the climate and local communities.
We're calling on Minister for Nature @MaryCreagh_ to deliver a complete ban.

Keir Starmer said wealth creation is a priority for his government.
But he's cut the Winter Fuel Allowance for vulnerable pensioners and refuses to tax the super-rich fairly.
Who are you trying to create wealth for Prime Minister?

@TaxJusticeUK please can you explain why QNUPS and QROPS are almost invisible to @HMRCgovuk?
"We do not hold the information requested. This is because QNUPS are not required to register with HMRC nor report the value of investments (and there is no way for them to do
so) /1
.... hence we do not hold figures on the total number of QNUPS or the total value of investments in QNUPS." /2
Presumably a sentiment shared by @_LFI and most of the @UKLabour front bench. #wrongsideofhistory #gaza

Just Stop Oil is right to be targeting the aviation industry. Almost all airlines are in denial, rely on greenwash,fail to invest,and happy to see the world plunged into climate chaos. Air New Zealand used to be one of the few exceptions - sadly,no more. jonathonporritt.com/air-new-…

The so-called 'Glorious Twelfth' is anything but glorious.
Carbon-rich peatlands are burnt and countless wild animals are trapped and snared—all so that grouse can be shot for 'sport'.
It's time for change!
