Step inside the world of a caged hen in the UK. With 7 million hens still kept in cages, it's time to fight for their freedom. Their suffering is preventable.

Wood burning stoves are an issue - British homes burn some 2 million tonnes a year, producing more fine particles (pm 2.5) than cars do now - it’s right to do something about it.

Our paper published back in May, 'The Good Society Starts Small', called for the end of the two-child benefit limit.

Baroness Ruth Lister made an inarguable case for it - morally and economically.

We are ecstatic it is being ended.

But this is just the beginning.

I think at this point if you're including Diane Abbott - a woman who has never held government office, has been a backbencher since 2020, and is scarcely a government ally - on your list of political wrongdoers, we all know exactly what your real concerns are

X is in clear + systemic breach of its legal duties in the UK to remove unlawful content from its platform.

Proof: when X users abuse + harass others with the racial slur "paki", X reporting system defends the racist abuse in more than 90% of cases reported.

A new thread documenting this.

Yet more #flytipping in a known spot. I'd love to know what would happen differently with the new flytipping strategy from RBG.

It really shouldn’t take awesome local campaigners like @escalatenow.bsky.social to provide updates on the lifts for people wanting to cross the river east of Tower Bridge on foot or wheeling bikes.

TfL need to pick up the foot tunnels as strategic river crossings and make the lifts reliable.
The drudgery for local residents continues with both lifts broken despite engineers being on site last week and yesterday. They didn’t even bother to update travel info so it’s left to locals to provide live info including Andrea’s initiative greenwichlifts.co.uk. TfL has the clout to change this.

Farage had the opportunity to do the right thing, the kind of thing responsible leaders might do….but instead he insisted it was all fine. Ugly language he said - too true that. With an ugly sentiment behind it. Racism. You know what makes me mad Nige, all them white faces in Reform pics..:)

Why is it big sites still offer to link posts to The Other Place. And even government, ministers and local council use it.
WHO makes these decisions?!

Thought about this tonight while popping into two old-school micropubs in Crayford and Barnehurst that have diversified into magnificent little places - keeping the cask ales but doing just a little bit more these days. Just as the Green Goddess does.
Guess who isn’t in Camra’s Good Beer Guide for another year?! Yes, it’s us! Luckily we know we serve good beer and we will continue to do so even if our local branch members don’t seem to recognise that.
