@SelaineSaxby @BorisJohnson Double-wow, gullible does not even come close. Incredible lack of judgement if you believe a word of BoJo’s statement, it is pure 100% lies, playground standard gaslighting. Cannot wait for the #GeneralElectionNow

My very wise neighbour ... in so many ways we all still have great faith in @BorisJohnson for what he has achieved, and thank him for his decision this evening, which I hope will enable us to move forward as a united party to deliver what we were elected to do
Geoffrey Cox KC MP@Geoffrey_Cox
A thoughtful, wise and statesmanlike decision by Boris Johnson to withdraw, reflecting the qualities that made so many of us originally put our faith in him 3 years ago. Putting the country and the party first.

Dear Conservative Politicians, we are so tired. You propose bringing back disgraced liar who is literally on a beach in the Caribbean when he should be serving his constituents to be your leader. Wake up. One day you’ll see that. Not a single one of you is a patriot. Please stop

Hi @AJRichardsonMP in answer to your question until 26th Aug dumping sewage into rivers was illegal "outside of exceptional situations".
Gov has now legalised sewage dumping for at least the next 28 years so long as water companies can argue they are doing something .... (1/2)

…why we campaign to save our rivers…
This is what an unpolluted river looks like: River Ribnik, Bosnia
No intensive agri
No sewage discharges
Treasured & nurtured
Highly protected
This is what the #riverwye looked like before @AvaraFoods @thenoblefoods @Tesco came along

Who really thinks that infinite economic growth in our finite little country is desirable, essential for progress and in any way #Sustainable?
The reality it is a death by a thousand cuts for nature, wildlife & the countryside.

There's no economic growth on a dead planet.
Pass it on.

This puts everyone else's "bad first two weeks in a new job" into some perspective. Even that intern at Vogue who accidentally decapitated the editor's dacshund in the revolving doors.

On #WorldRiversDay let’s not forget the dirty face of defunding, deregulation and ‘cutting red tape for big business’ - Profiteering water companies spewing millions of hours of sewage pollution into rivers & coastlines. #EndSewagePollution

Bonus achievement to crash your economy after less than three weeks in office when the Queen’s death suspended politics for 12 days of it

If we don’t have a healthy, functioning ecosystem or a stable climate - we don’t have anything else, there is no growth. The environment isn’t an optional extra once we’ve wrung out all the profit we can, or something we can think about later - it is what our lives depend on.

Upper River Wissey, Norfolk. Superb habitat & something worth fighting for on #WorldRiversDay. Keep on fighting all...

How often must we have completely binary debates about farms - food production OR Environmental management. UK has some of the best farmers & most sophisticated consumers. The future must be about both food AND environment. We must all stop the polarisation of this debate

The UK Government’s #deregulation agenda is dangerous:
For the good of future generations, we must retain existing laws and enhance nature protection instead
