UK's dysfunctional power grid. Yesterday Scotland had over capacity. Rather than provide free energy in Scotland, the turbines were switched off, then gas turbines switch on in the South of England. Then EVERYONE in Scotland pays for electricity like it's gas. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Cost of balancing Great Britain’s power grid reaches nearly £50m a day

Their march coincides with the COP31 Climate Summit and is part of the European Days of Action on AI Data Centres. Data centres are destroying habitat for wildlife. We need a moratorium now.

If it goes ahead, Canolfan Ddata Menai would build over 13 hectares of Plas Brereton, a designated Local Wildlife Site. Neither the developer nor the council have conducted a wildlife survey for nearly 20 years, so we don't exactly know who lives there. But they still want to bulldoze it.

The licence to hunt Gannets was rejected this year. But it's only a pause. We need the Scottish Parliament to permanently ban the barbaric killing of Gannet chicks.

There is a consultation open about the Avonmouth data centre, which is less than half a kilometre from the Severn Estuary. The Estuary and surrounding lands provide a home for protected birds and Great Crested Newts. Please contribute to the consultation and make your voice heard for nature

When I read about the two botched executions of Christa Pike I started wondering if the US was becoming one of the world’s most barbaric countries. Then I read that child marriage was still legal in 32 states and I wasn’t at all reassured.

In Scotland, we provide free personal care for older people without punishing pensioners. Andy Burnham removing the triple lock would simply repeat the mistakes of Keir Starmer. The blame for the UK’s financial mess lies with successive Westminster governments, not pensioners.

Scrapping winter fuel payment is wrong, but REAL SCANDAL is that UK state pension is one of WORST in Europe!! MINIMUM wage is £22k but pension is ONLY HALF THAT at £11.5k! 1m elderly living in poverty! Judge a country by how it treats it's vulnerable! #GMB www.theguardian.com/society/2024...

Did you know that UK gulls like the Herring Gull and the Great Black-backed Gull are now on the conservation Red List? While they seem common in towns, their natural coastal populations are facing a severe crisis and have plummeted by over 50%.

I think once black clad men are interfering with rescues at sea, we are past "legitimate concerns". Once they're attacking boats, and risking the lives of everyone on board, it's just thuggery. The Home Secretary's statement is on the side of criminals. There's no other way to read it.
