I've written to Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch and Nigel Farage, urging them to join me in condemning Elon Musk's dangerous remarks inciting violence yesterday.

Wildflower strips in orchards attract insects that eat pests, reducing crop damage and cutting pesticide use. The savings can be significant, especially in bad aphid years. 🌸
