Wildflowers aren’t just good for pollinators, they’re helping apple farmers save up to £3,000 per hectare.
The approach is low-cost, sustainable, and proven.

We were very excited to read about the discovery of a 'lost' Magna Carta (hidden in plain sight at Harvard Law School).
Magna Carta was shaped by a historic meeting of barons and clergy in St Albans in 1213, and 2 years later signed in Runnymede:

No one who cares about wildlife and ecosystems is now likely to vote Labour in 2029.
Or about Gaza.
Or poverty.
Or inequality.
Or international aid.
Or corporate power.
Or democratic reform.
Or racism.
Or trans rights.
So that's goodbye to just about its entire vote.

In Pope Francis’s last public address, he preached care of the marginalized, the vulnerable, and migrants, saying: “I would like all of us to hope anew and to revive our trust in others, including those who are different than ourselves.” May we heed his wish.

Arresting Quaker women for non-violent protest and breaking into a meeting house to do so. The first time anyone has been arrested in a meeting house in living memory. Despicable behaviour from a Labour government’s Home Office/the Met Police.
