I walked through an invisible spider web once, in my backyard! Strung between a fence & tree, it was. Just lucky I'd had hypnotherapy, no longer arachnophobic.

There was a time when the Tories, however hypocritically, claimed to want to protect our natural heritage. Now they're just a party of vandals, ripping down the few protections the living world has for the sake of their rich chums. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

As long as the Tories are threatening to leave the ECHR, they aren’t a serious party. Consider it the ultimate red flag. Any party who’d take this entirely unnecessary and ruinous risk with our rights and our country’s security and wellbeing should never get its hands on power. (Letter, Times)
Value of the
ECHR
Sir, In dangerous times, serious countries do not retreat into splendid isolation. They build alliances, multiply their influence and strengthen institutions. Key among those is the 46-member Council of Europe, at its heart the European Convention on Human Rights.As former independent reviewers of terrorism legislation we have seen at close quarters that the ECHR is not just a human rights instrument. It is a national security asset. Terrorist networks, hostile states, organised crime gangs and people smugglers do not respect borders. Tackling them requires arrangements for the closest possible co-operation with our neighbours, including through joint investigations and police access to European passenger, fingerprint, DNA and vehicle data.These arrangements expressly depend on internationally agreed human rights standards, applied by a supranational court. We detect no political willingness to excuse the UK from compliance with standards to which the rest of Europe already subscribes. As authoritarian powers grow more aggressive and democratic institutions face mounting pressure, Britain should not be abandoning one of its greatest postwar achievements.
The question is not whether we can afford to remain within the ECHR. It is whether, in an increasingly perilous world, we can afford not to.
Lord Carlile of Berriew, Lord Anderson of Ipswich, Sir Max Hill

Ask any hardline Brexer how well we are doing now...mumble, shuffle, look away, bluster about 'sovereignty', anything but admit it was a huge mistake! I'm an oldie (over 70) who voted Remain and am deeply sad at the whole wasted decade. 😒

If AI does kill off the human race, the technology will eventually destroy itself. Without human intervention, all artifice fails. Nature will take over the Earth and flourish, vestiges of human invention crumble to dust. Forests cover former sports fields, resetting balance. 🐘🐆🌻🦈🌲🦢🌳☀️
