It's a bit cheeky to have PM Andy Burnham tell us to "take the emergency alert seriously". YOU SHOULD! You sent an alert to 7 million people asking them to listen to you but YOU should listen to us! You have the power to protect us all. Think for a second and realise you have to #StopRosebank!

Join the biggest EVER movement of nature defenders. Chemical giants like Syngenta are making billions selling toxic pesticides + fertilisers, & Britain's bees, birds + rivers are paying the price. The UK government could support farmers to move away from these chemicals, but they're failing to act.
