To say that the Poole Park Forster's Tern is showy is a bit of an understatement... By far and away my best views of this returning American vagrant over the last few years @dorsetbirdclub.bsky.social

As journalists working today many of us are taught to recognise disinformation when we see it and fight back against it.

Unfortunately there are some who willingly seek it out and put it on their front pages. A disgrace to the profession.

@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "Once again Reform are spreading misinformation & smears, and the press & the media seem to repeat them.. its really important that the media.. take responsibility so when Reform or Farage says something they don't just keep repeating it"๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

the fact the president of the united states is even thinking about asserting emergency powers to disrupt an election - just a few years after he incited an armed coup attempt - should be the top issue. but the media mostly shrugs and the opposition doesnt focus on it.

Common Nighthawk, Sept 2022, Oxfordshire
Urban twitches can be legendary & fondly recalled later in #birding folklore. One such was the one day Nighthawk at Wantage that sat on a garden fence behind some parked cars as hundreds of enthusiasts hastily changed plans for their day and made pilgrimage.

The fact Trump is saying he will not obey the Supreme Courts ruling, he will be imposing more tariffs says it all, "again". It proves "again" when the next election happens, he will not honor the results of the elections, unless he wins.

Now the rest of them. Not just the sex offenders, but all those named in the Epstein files whoโ€™ve used their power and influence to undermine our democracy and sell the country out.

At this very moment both the BBC News and Sky News channels are yet again showing a live speech by Nigel Farage. When will they start showing every speech by @zackpolanski.bsky.social and @eddavey.libdems.org.uk live as well?

There are few birds better than a Red-flanked Bluetail & the wintering Crockham Hill bird was a typical (& occasionally showy) stunner this morning. Surprisingly only my 2nd in my old home county of Kent, after my first ever on its eastern extent at Bockhill back in my teens, many moons ago...

No Reform MPs turned up to the debate on Russian influence on UK politics yesterday, because we are confident that we already know how it works and donโ€™t need any further advice.
