I regularly see these old men in Bournemouth gardens with a banner about freedom, so today I asked if freedom means abortion on demand. Of course the answer is no so I shouted they don’t really believe in freedom and that that they are morons. I got a bit of satisfaction from that 🫤

This point needs to be made over and again: The main purpose of wealth taxes should not be to raise revenue. That's a small and secondary benefit. The main purpose should be to *reduce the fortunes of the ultrarich*. Why? Because those fortunes present a massive threat to democracy and public life.

So when governments say "but the ultrarich might leave the country", we should respond, "mission accomplished then." Get them and their ill-gotten gains out of our politics and out of our hair. And hopefully, with global measures, out of everyone's.

Was surprised and pleased to see a woodpecker on my bird feeder today. Not seen one here since we moved 10 years ago. We used to get them at our London house but we backed on to a small piece of woodland there

This is a Pom-pom crab. No, really 😄 🦀 (Also Boxer crab or Cheerleader crab) The pink structures are actually living sea anemones that the crab holds in its claws for defense and to help mop up food particles. If one anemone is lost, the crab clones another by tearing it in half to regenerate.

So instead of listening to the science about the badger culls they just listened to farmers and looked to protect themselves . Absolutely disgusting. But at least it’s now in the open. Well done Wild Justice and the Badger Trust www.badgertrust.org.uk/post/natural...

Every second, $6,000 in fossil fuel subsidies are handed out globally. That’s $5 trillion/year. Renewables? Barely a fraction. We have 6–7 years to halve emissions. The industry has zero years of conscience. Share if you’ve had enough. 🌍✊
