In this case they literally just allowed a billionaire funded think tank employee to publish an article full of misinformation unchecked. That’s not journalism that’s an unpaid advertisement!
A deeply odd Guardian article that massively underplays the damage building & infrastructure do to the environment
& while claiming to be pro-environment seeks to de-regulate the sector
Based on a nonsensical zero-sum argument about conservation funding
Comes from pro-growth group Britain Remade
If any @theguardian.com journalists want to do the right thing and expose who funds Britain Remade let me know I have all the receipts. Don’t be complicit in nature destruction by spreading this billionaire funded nonsense
I’m really disappointed in @theguardian.com for posting this misinformation and failing to disclose who funds Britain Remade. It’s bad journalism to publish a pro deregulation article from an EDF-funded PR company-created lobby group without that context @georgemonbiot.bsky.social
Pro growth rhetoric claiming to care about our suffering natural world 🦔 Britain Remade is a Tufton Street adjacent think tank that promotes building unfettered by environmental legislation

What does Labour’s loss mean for nature? Here’s why no matter what party you support nature was a winner last night. 💚🦇🦎
@georgemonbiot.bsky.social
Labour losing in Gorton and Denton is the result of their whole election strategy being, pointing to Reform and saying we're not them, while pursuing Reform's policy platform.
If you want to say you're the alternative to something, you can't be exactly the same as that thing.
🦇 Water habitats are essential for all UK bat species, as they provide food and can act as a safe blue corridor between important sites.
Please support this campaign and email your MP to demand action for clean water now. It only takes 2 minutes:

I don't know, maybe it's because I'm a big Carl Sagan fan but I'm super dismayed out how many people these days seem to think that Nuclear Weapons are fine. And not, you know, a completely insane way for us all to live.
Well done @greenpartyhan.bsky.social congratulations. You absolutely smashed out of the park mate.
And well done to everyone who worked so hard on the campaign. When we stand together we can win!
Beautiful acceptance speech and interview on Sky as @greenpartyhan.bsky.social makes UK political history
1800 volunteers turned up today & helped the Greens get 40% of the vote share
But it's Hannah's sincerity that won this election and makes her such a special addition to parliament 💚🙏🏽
We do!! 💚💚💚💚💚🦎🦇
Nuclear deregulation lobbyists are getting desperate now. I’m honestly disgusted by how they have tried to smear environmentalists and anyone that corrects their misinformation.
Here’s my latest substack debunking them…again 😩

Geography for Local Nature Recovery Strategies differs a little from from the forthcoming Spatial Development Strategies (SDSs need "to take account of LNRSs). eg Milton Keynes in with Bucks for nature and Beds for strategic planning
My mom found this school assignment where we had to write our future obituaries. That’s a pretty morbid task for a child, but it was fun to see what I wanted my legacy to be. I’m supposed to save over 300 endangered species before I die peacefully in my sleep at the age of 87. 😂
I love these! 💚
As is so often the case bats are great indicators of the health of the environment which we all benefit from. Light pollution can negatively impact wildlife and people. www.bats.org.uk/about-bats/t...

Me trying to wake up the trees so they can help us fight our nature hating politicians. 😂🌳🌲✊ our wildlife protections are at risk. If you want to help save them email your MP here action.wildlifetrusts.org/page/183790/...
Had a lovely day clearing Scrub to make room for wildflowers with Manor Woods Valley Group and GoodGym 💚
(Song choice was deliberate of course 😂)
Thank you!
We should all follow Danica’s lead of hidden questions in our letters to our elected representatives! 😬
Important read.
When I emailed my MP asking her to sign the motion to protect habitats regulations I got a dismissive boilerplate response. I’ve heard this is standard for most Labour ministers so I thought it might be helpful to deconstruct the reply in a substack post

Zack and his boyfriend on the red carpet
Really proud to be the LGBT+ Trailblazer of the year.
And so proud of the real trailblazers - like my boyfriend - who works in palliative care.
Our NHS workers, our teachers, our cleaners.
The people who keep our country running.
And LGBT+ History month matters. Representation matters.
