Don't forget to email your MP urgently about the Planning & Infrastructure Bill. Rather than re-invent the wheel, here is the excellent @WildlifeTrusts template: action.wildlifetrusts.org/page/180301/ac… 23,000 people have already done this. It's quick, easy and essential. @CommunityPlann1

Extending planning permissions without updating ecological surveys risks destroying habitats that have changed since approval. Nature moves faster than the legal system. #Planning #Biodiversity Full text 👉 bit.ly/47phdL4

🐧 15 Gentoo penguins are trapped underground right now in the basement of SEA LIFE London. Kept in artificial ice, bright lights, and the constant noise of tourists, all for profit. Freedom for Animals, with support from Born Free, Chris Packham, Dale Vince and Feargal Sharkey, is holding a protest outside SEA LIFE London on Sunday 19th October at 10.30am. Protect the Wild will be there. Will you stand with us for the penguins?

I wrote this yesterday in response to Zia Yusuf's lie that Farage was having to pay a million pounds for private security. Why has Nigel Farage not entered a single pound in declared interests since May? Today, I've gone through Nigel Farage's officially declared Register of Interests on the @UKParliament website. In the last three months, we are being led to believe that Nigel Farage has ceased all outside earnings and donations. Of course, this is not true. He is absolutely raking it in from multiple sources but, it seems, has just given up on reporting this income. At the very least, we should be seeing his GB News salary and his social media income, but nope, nothing. We know he travelled to Washington to appear at the House Judiciary Committee. Did he pay for that himself? Highly unlikely. Something very strange is happening here. An elected MP with some serious questions over his finances, is, it appears, trying to hoodwink UK voters. The Register is updated fortnightly, and MPs must register new additions or changes within 28 days of that occurrence. At the very least, Farage has missed two months worth of declarations. Averaging out the previous 10 months and if we're being kind to say it's only two months missing, that works out at £177,690.78 undeclared income. Not a paltry sum to have 'mislaid'. As a rule, an MP should be made to correct the register and make an apology if they are found to be in breach. Boris Johnson was a prime culprit for this and even had to attend remedial training as a punishment. Look at my spreadsheet below, and you can see that there are big bunches of declarations in April but then, aside from one GB News payment, everything stops. One image is a wide view of all of his interests, and the second is a closer look at where the payments halt. What is going on here @ElectoralCommUK? Why is this being allowed to run unchecked? Is there an investigation that we're not party to? Or is Farage really actually above the law? It's bizarre and has the very distinct whiff of … well, you can decide what I was going to write there — I don't want to get sued! As I wrote yesterday — Farage is not declaring his income.

My petition to the UK Government for full transparency on the impacts of 86 deregulated free zones across England, Scotland, and Wales has finally been approved. I urge people across the UK to sign and share this petition as widely as possible. This is hugely important for the future of your communities, your property rights, your land, your towns, your cities, your councils, your citizenship rights, your collective sovereignty, for rejoining the EU, and the use of your taxes to fund corporations like US Blackrock, who pay zero taxes in free zones for 10 years. The UK's 86 deregulated free zones are licensed for a quarter of a century, and are embedded with secondary legislation, meaning zero Parliamentary and public scrutiny. This is in your hands now.
