@NeilSausage Looking good Neil!!!

Hello my fluffy fren. It’s been a long time 😋

The @BristolBears are in town!!!!

Is it sage in ⁦@bristolrugbynws⁩ county?????

Absolute bombshell. Data reveals someone made a massive 580 MILLION dollar trade on oil exactly 15 minutes BEFORE Donald Trump posted his tweet about pausing the Iran war. Someone on the inside just made a life changing fortune. The corruption is blatant.

🚨DISABLED LAD WORKS 9 MONTHS FOR FREE AS BINMAN INTERN COUNCIL STILL REJECTS HIM TWICE! 21-year-old Bryan Rowe from Southampton has myotonic dystrophy and ADHD. He completed a full nine-month unpaid supported internship as a refuse loader for the council, turning up on time and loving every shift. He applied for the actual paid binman job twice, and was turned down both times after interviews. Heartbroken, Bryan told his mum: “I’m not good enough to get anything, not even a binman job.” A spokesman for the council said: 'Southampton City Council is committed to fair, inclusive and transparent recruitment processes. 'We are unable to comment on individual applications or personal circumstances, but recruitment decisions are made through formal interview processes which are reviewed to ensure they are fair and equitable, with appropriate involvement from HR. 'The council continues to keep its recruitment practices under review to ensure they are as inclusive and accessible as possible.' Britain 2026: even bin rounds are out of reach for disabled kids who actually want to work! Poor Bryan 🥹

It’s time to share this around again and spread the word! 🐦

Up date from @networkrail The have sent me a letter telling me they now plan to be working the #buzzard section of line on 11th of April - just when the eggs will be approaching hatching I have had support from BTP (transport Police ) so we will see how it develops -

These are the nesting buzzards threatened by @networkrail on the embankment near my home in WF8 They plan more destruction on March 28th despite it being illegal to disturb nesting birds like these @Natures_Voice @BTP @ChrisGPackham

I was taught that it's not polite to boast about your own achievements. But I'm really proud of what I achieved here, taking individual, damaged, reclaimed parquet floor blocks, making into and then laying a beautiful floor in an unusual location. Well done me

It does not have to be like this. Time to stop behaving like helpless victims of corporate greed. These are our waters, not the water companies'. And together we have the power, not just to make it a bit better, but to make it stop.

Southern Water! it isn't even raining yet your shoddy company has allowed raw sewage to run from @ Margate Police Station & heading towards the Turner Art Gallery. #Renationalise

What a fantastic event... 107 MPs coming to hear about the Dirty Business that is the water industry. Time to end the corruption, time to end the greed, time for a new approach, time for public ownership.

Return your unwanted Reform UK flyers to this address and it costs them £2.50 a pop. Pop this address on an envelope with the flyer in, and pop it in a post box! The more we return, the less they will send!

Well Done Spain 🇪🇸. A ROOF TILE THAT’S GIVING LITTLE OWLS THEIR HOMES BACK In rural Spain, a clever design is helping thousands of nocturnal birds reclaim what modern construction quietly took away. The Little Owl once nested in old stone walls and traditional farmhouses. But as rural architecture modernized, those natural cavities disappeared — leaving these small hunters without shelter. So conservationists from the Grup de Naturalistes d’Osona and Grup de Natura Sterna designed something brilliant. They created the Teula Mussolera — a modified clay roof tile that doubles as a high-tech birdhouse. Here’s why it works: It looks exactly like traditional Spanish roofing — preserving the beauty of rural homes. Its internal tunnel is predator-proof and thermally stable, protecting chicks from heat and hunters. It allows owls to live alongside humans as villages expand. And here’s the smartest part… This isn’t charity. It’s partnership. The Little Owl is an elite natural pest controller — hunting thousands of insects and rodents every year. Farmers who install these tiles aren’t just helping wildlife… they’re recruiting a silent, feathered security team that reduces the need for chemical pesticides. Sometimes conservation isn’t about separating humans and nature. It’s about designing a way to thrive together.

Why do we have to have an mot to prove our car is road worthy when the roads are not car worthy

River guardians do not want bribes that allow Thames Water to keep breaking the law. We want one simple thing: for Thames Water to put spades in the ground & fix every single illegal outfall within the next 5-10 years. A little story to illustrate: 5 years ago I found an illegal outfall spewing raw sewage (with visible turds) into the Aldersbrook (a tributary of the Roding). The EA refused to prosecute, but I created so much fuss locally about it that eventually I got a visit from Richard Aylard, Thames Water’s ‘Sustainability Director’ who had an unflattering appearance in the recent ‘Dirty Business’ programme. Instead of setting forth a timetable to fix the outfall, Aylard offered the River Roding Trust (the entirely volunteer run charity I founded) £50,000 for “river restoration”. I refused this offer, saying there was no point restoring a brook that still had raw shit going into it. I continued campaigning for another three years: taking numerous journalists to the outfall, getting Thames Water hauled before the local council scrutiny committee & relentlessly calling them out on social media. Eventually, after 4 years, Thames spent £1 million fixing the outfall & the brook is now clean for the first time in decades. I have no doubt that if I hadn’t discovered the outfall in the first place, or if I had taken the £50,000, the outfall would still be putting raw turds into the Aldersbrook, a stone’s throw from Ilford town centre. It’s obvious for Thames that’s it cheaper to pay their critics to keep quiet than to do the work needed to fix the problem, but this is not what our rivers need.
