Far too many people will just shrug this off or find some way to justify it.
But Trump is unwell, incoherent, and a danger to us all.

The assault on EU regulations is not about "simplification". It's about a handful of polluting legacy industries and laggard companies trying to kill the emerging clean alternatives.
From pesticides, diesel cars, gas boilers to PFAS coolers, it's not env vs economy but rent seekers vs innovators.

Spotted alone by our SWT/KWS Canine Unit during a training exercise, the tiny calf was tracked for hours in the hope he would find his family. But no other elephants appeared. A year on, shy little Daba has blossomed into a confident, calm and increasingly mischievous young elephant.

Wild dogs are incredibly inquisitive by nature – and with our SWT/KWS Anti-Poaching rangers taking a break on patrol, it's hard to tell who is watching whom. Behind this quiet encounter is years of boots-on-the-ground conservation, helping this endangered species return to Tsavo.
