An absolute disaster for nature, climate and humanity - everything we depend on to survive, from food to water, requires a healthy natural world. In the UK nature is already at rock bottom, one of the worst in the world. This Government is doing the unthinkable and harming what little is left.
Worlds richest families have never been richer - Walton's lead with net worth of $513bn
This is obscene. Why can't other politicians say that?

Don't bin those autumn leaves! π They're a free superfood for your veg garden. Use them as a winter mulch to suppress weeds, retain moisture & protect your soil. Or, add them to your compost heap to create nutrient-rich "black gold" for a bumper harvest next year.
