We need to rewild 30% of the planet to restore nature & protect our wildlife, but Britain is falling behind. So I've signed this new petition calling on one of our biggest landowners - the Church of England - to rewild its land. Join me? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...
Help save nature by rewilding the Church’s massive landholdings!

Had the camera crew wandered into the Oval Office early and caught VP Vance shagging a couch while Donald Trump spanked his bare arse with a rolled up copy of the NY Post, it would have been less shameful a moment than what transpired during President Zelensky’s visit. SHAME!!!!!

A real existential shift for USA! America voting with Russia, Belarus, and N. Korea against a UN resolution that acknowledges Russia’s role as aggressor in Ukraine war. MAGA joining what Bush labelled ‘the axis of evil’.

Trump negotiating a peace deal with Russia w/out including the Ukraine in the process would be like Roosevelt negotiating peace and the future of Europe with Hitler w/out including the participation of the UK, France and other WW2 allied nations. #SHAME

Trump blaming Ukraine for war with Russia is like blaming the victim of domestic abuse for their partner’s or spouse’s violence. The USA of MAGA becoming a vassal to Putin’s Kremlin. :(

Very kind of Canada and Mexico to help the bloviating pumpkin skinned blob to save face by agreeing to do things they had already done much earlier.
