@NorfolkSaffron @paulpowlesland Himalayam balsam is a massive problem round us on the NE edge of Dartmoor but the difference is that it is super easy to remove. Just want to try and do it before all the flowers come into bud with seed, like they are now (I say with 1/2 an acre of the stuff to remove!)

If you were designing from scratch the responsibilities of a government environmental agency, you’d think that one of the very basic things it would do would be the control of the most invasive plant in the country, especially where that plant is devastating one of the rarest & most biodiverse habitats in London & where it is in an urban area where it will cause huge economic damage as well. But the sum total of @EnvAgency’s plan for knotweed on my river is apparently to ignore it & let it spread out of control, resulting in these monstrous patches taking over the river & its precious reedbeds. In my spare time I have now mapped these patches, obtained funding & found a charity to help tackle them this autumn, but this really should not be the job of volunteers should it?

@paulpowlesland I suggest you never visit Paington Zoo; literally acres of Japanese knotweed on their site. Like you say, almost too much now there for them to ever see any point in trying to get rid of it.

Military folk + the Armed Forces Covenant. What's the best guide you've read that really explains the Covenant, how it works, its strengths and its limitations? Looking for an independent analysis of it in detail.

Probably loads of legit people. The process is mind numbing. It took my wife and I the best part of a week to do it. Scanning in multiple documents for the 11 issues that she has. Writing up how each affects her daily life. She has her assessment in two weeks and has asked for a lip speaker to be present.

For veterans going through AFCS / WP appeals, Tribunals or just battling Veterans UK(!), invest in a copy of this - the 'Bano Bible'. @CharlieRadUK kindly let me borrow a copy, but as I'm yet again back to Tribunal, I need my own. This, a watch of Legally Blonde, & I'm good to go

I should point out that this is not a CPS matter Health and Safety Executive prosecution, defendant is British Airways Quite why both bodies are unaware of open justice rules & think they can make secret submissions to a court is beyond me

What the judge and barristers probably haven't counted on is my stubborn willingness to pursue my application after this hearing. For weeks and months if necessary. The #OpenJustice failings today are so disappointing, and shouldn't just be allowed to stand

Given the prosecutor turned down my request for a copy of his note about ten minutes into the lunch hour, I wonder if the judge thought I should run out to the local library for printing or routinely carry around my own printer for these such occasions.

In an exciting twist, the judge essentially refused to hear my request, said courts don't spend their time 'sitting on their hands' and have better things to do than hear from me, and then admonished me for not providing written copies of my legal authorities in advance

Journalists are supposed to sit at the back, listen to what is said, and report only that, he says He's adamant that reporters never get access to written material I told him we have a fundamental difference of opinion, and will have to ask the judge...

A prosecutor tells me with supreme confidence that he's unaware of a single barrister who would provide a written note on sentencing to members of the media He's just spent the morning saying in court 'I refer your honour to paragraph X of my note, which I won't read aloud'
