I don’t think we talk nearly enough about the fact that corporations like Amazon, don’t pay a single cent to maintain the roads they use, the transportation system they use, the courts they use, they pay nothing for the infrastructure that is absolutely critical to their business.

The US military has 22 sites in the UK.
Every day long range US bombers are taking off here to drop bombs on Iran.
This is a rogue state carrying out war crimes, and threatening more.
The UK Government must grow a spine - and stop our bases being used for this war.

We need a leader to speak to our fears. The one in London is in bed with the bad guys, so we need either the Scottish leader or the leader or the greens to go on TV and say, it's scary right now, because we've let a madman rule the world and destroy international law.

UK to give homes ‘free energy’ instead of turning off wind turbines
Europe’s outdated and under-invested energy grid means huge amounts of renewable energy are wasted every year.

Scientists captured female sperm whales on video working together during a birth to protect the calf
Scientists have captured rare footage of a sperm whale giving birth, offering a window into the large mammals' behavior.
How incredible: “The full delivery took about 30 minutes. For hours afterward, pairs of whales held the baby above the water until it was able to swim…
What struck the researchers was how many mother, sister and daughter whales united to support the new calf, even ones that weren’t related.”

The USA were the only country in the world that voted against a bill to improve women's rights.
Largely because they thought it might make their complete abortion ban illegal.

Donate to the RNLI and help save lives at sea
Your donations really make a difference. We depend on your generosity to educate people to stay safe and prevent tragedies on and offshore. Donate here.
Since a handful of hate filled people protested outside RNLI HQ yesterday because they're angry that crews don't discriminate in their rescues and work to save all lives at sea you might want to show your support with a one off or regular donation.

Keir Starmer, your government promised a consultation to strengthen hunting laws and ban so- called trail hunting. It still has not happened.
Every delay gives hunts more time to kill wild animals.
