Put Nature first, link money directly to Natures health. Scrap all existing taxes and replace with a single Natural Resource Tax collected at source and based on the Eco Damage caused by their use and consumption plus UBI and a Wealth Tax. Plus PR now!

The Pontiff Makes the Point You can't be pro-killing and pro-life.
Tweet from Pope Leo 
 "Someone who says, 'I'm against abortion's but say 'I'm in favor of the death penalty ' is not really pro-life. Someone who says that I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants who are in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life"

Too much water in winter. Not enough in summer. An increasingly familiar problem for East Anglian farmers. Storing rainfall, restoring wetlands and improving soil health could help farms cope with both extremes. But investment can't wait. Martin Lines reports.

Food security and resilience vital after extreme summer drought
After this summer, the climate crisis is impossible to ignore. We need major changes to how we farm if our food system is to remain resilient

Andy Burnham must properly fund our NHS and end NHS privatisation We spend £40 billion LESS on health per capita than comparable European countries like France and Germany After years of underfunding and privatisation, our NHS is on its knees. It's time to get serious about reinstating our NHS

Why is there so little debate about the huge tree losses due to heat? We worry about us humans but plants are dying at huge rates due to the heatwaves! Plants not working , no oxygen and no carbon sequestered? Ai can’t fix this ? We can afford to cool data centres but not plants nature or man

Looking at domestic & economic labour together, women work more but earn 43% less than men, on average – much greater than usual estimates of the gender pay gap

Natures rights are more important than human rights? Much of Natures rights covers human rights also, as we are an integral part of nature. No Nature , no human civilisation will exist , just a few surviving the catastrophe that’s now on its way at an ever increasing speed! Get real! Slow down
