Funnily enough, there's not much evidence of integration there at all... with the 2021 census showing the white ethnic group made up 96.9% of the population...Funny old white world there then…:). Maybe you need to get out more.

The one you controversially travelled to during the pandemic lockdown after chairing a government news conference to reinforce a "stay at home" message…But let's not dwell there....Let's look at just how many non-white faces there are in your home county....

Dale Vince @dalevince.com · 15h

You called Handsworth, one of the "worst integrated places” you'd ever been to. Only that's not quite true is it? You live in Eye Manor, a rather splendid 17th century Grade I listed mansion, in the hamlet of Eye, in Herefordshire...

Bob - aka Robert Jenrick, you went to Handsworth in Brum and ‘complained' about 'not seeing another white face'. You were filming a video about litter - but instead of scouring the ground, for well, litter, you were it seems scouring people for the colour of their faces - why?

The factory farmers (Avara) are trying to disown the poo of their 23 million chickens while Welsh Water says fining them will make it harder for them not to pollute…..hilarious, desperate attempts to defend the indefensible.

Love this, 4,000 local residents bring the biggest ever environment lawsuit, to protect the river Wye from the effluent of factory farming and water companies - both of who literally don’t give a shit about the environment or this once beautiful river.

We’re being told fairy tales by right wing politicians and media - it’s two things, an attempt to divide and then rule us - and a distraction from the real issues. Our Giga Poll gives the lie to these fantasies - it shows what Britain Really Thinks - buff.ly/0d4tnUH

Reform says one thing and does the opposite - this is not reforming our politics, it’s what we’ve come to expect after 14 years of Tory rule - is there really any difference between Reform and the Tories? I can’t see it.

This lot are trying to normalise racism.

But that’s not the Britain I know... and our Giga Poll of 45k shows that. Diversity is its strength, not something to fear or smear. Some people, desperate for power, will say anything.

Now we get to go further - powering some iconic venues from our wind and sun mills - a proper green milestone for the world of live entertainment.

Dale Vince @dalevince.com · 1d

Pleased to be a part of this. We’ve been working with AEG over the summer to bring clean power to festivals like All Points East and LIDO, with our fabulous Grid Faeries initiative.

Right now green energy has just overtaken coal as the world’s biggest provider of power - that’s something Trump and his fossil fuel funders will hate to hear - maybe that’s why they’re preventing people talking about it. Won’t change the reality though.

Trump wants to ban people talking about the climate crisis... that’s censorship - where’s the free speech in that - for all the MAGA guff that there’s no free speech in the UK - massive hypocrites.

But more than that, why is there an allowable limit for highly damaging chemicals in our water - at all. Salmon farming is toxic - toxic to animal rights and toxic to our environment - it needs to stop.

Dale Vince @dalevince.com · 2d

Madness is sometimes defined as continuing to do the same things but hoping to get a different outcome. That fits this situation. Why let these people resume their toxic discharges at all, their track record is awful, they will surely resume their reckless rule breaking.

Jilly came to football late in life but became a big fan of FGR and the game....:)

Jilly came to football late in life but became a big fan of FGR and the game, “Football is more exciting to the world than sex” she once said. Her last book (Tackle) was based on her experience with us at FGR - she took the Bonkbuster genre to the beautiful game.

Here’s a little memory nudge for Michelle Mone - as to where some of that public money went, from her now bankrupt company, that failed so badly to supply the protective equipment it was overpaid to provide (the VIP lane ensured that) - in the middle of a Pandemic…..

Conference of the Living Dead - is not yet a film title in the genre - but it started this weekend.

The rich want to use the media they have to distract you and lie to you. Didn’t work this time.
