Fascist Reform leader Richard Tice would get REALLY upset if you shared this widely on all forms of social media so lots of people can keep it and bring it out before the next election to show that he is as big a liar as Keir Starmer.
So please don't, he would be *very* upset.

Sad to see the standing dead wood felled, but they had become dangerous, and fallen timber, blocked the road earlier in the week.
They'll make great habitat for stag beetles and other larvae, and the fungi.
With so much oak mast this year, replacement is only a matter of time.

Hampton Heath lost two veteran oaks this week, killed by the catastrophic 40°C summer of 2022. The nesting kestrel went too.
Their loss was a DIRECT impact of climate change. Dozens of younger oaks also died in extreme temperatures.
But nearby, red-listed Wrinkled Peach fungi cycle the dead wood.

After a wet session at the Heath yesterday, Hampton Heath Friends were back at Oldfield Meadow, Hampton today to finish planting 250 native whips... and eat cake. Thanks to everyone - especially Ben for baking the cake.

Gill’s conviction for taking Kremlin money is yet more evidence of Russian influence in our politics, as the Russia report itself found. So when will Ministers finally investigate this wider interference? Why are we forced to pursue it in court? @carolecadwalla.bsky.social
