I love birds and I’m furious that the UK Government has launched an #AttackOnNature. I have written urgently to my MP, Greg Smith. Will you email yours? Follow this link, it makes it very straightforward. action.rspb.org.uk/page/114089/ac…

Can you help me stop this #AttackOnNature @gregsmith_uk? Nature groups are worried, and so am I! There are Gov plans to rip up nature rules and renege on manifesto commitments! Please ask @DEFRA & @trussliz to listen to @WildlifeTrusts and others, you must #DefendNature

For those with short memories, Hunt was health secretary 2012-2018.
