UK politics funded by billionaires, mega-donations surge as the rich buy power. £179m donated by wealthy individuals since 2019. A cap at £100,000 or £500,000 won't do. Only the rich can enter political auctions Can't end political corruption without ending donations.

No arrests. When environmentalists block roads to protest about climate change, they are prosecuted and jailed. When masked fascists do it to promote race hate, they are allowed to go home without a fuss. How about that for two-tier policing?

Far too many fox (according to one estimate I heard, around 20x the natural level) impact across ecosystems, for example on native ground-nesting birds. The mass release of pheasants for shooting is an utter disaster for native ecosystems, and should be banned NOW.
