The View from The Hill and sometimes further Often grumpy but usually polite. Apparently a "lefty green jobsworth cretin" #BadgeofHonour?

Yesterday we learned of 38.2% mortalities in salmon farming. Blood pressure alert 🚨 ‼️ Today we find out how much of YOUR cash goes to prop up this toxic, nasty, ludicrous industry……. Read and weep taxpayers: gov.scot/publications/m…

.@AnasSarwar please don't promote this extractive, millionaire driven food system that cant keep a lid on mortalities or chemical use, degrades our environment, + sucks up grants that would be better spent on locally owned coastal businesses. #ScottishSalmon. Not Scottish.

The UK is among the most nature depleted counties in the world. A horrendous fact. Can you help reverse this by donating some cash to help the Wildlife Trusts buy the enormous Rothbury Estate so they can bring back wildlife? wildlifetrusts.org/appeals/rothbu…

No arable farmer would routinely grow a crop if one third to a half of it died before harvest. And plants are generally accepted to be non-sentient beings so you don't even have the welfare issue as a driver.

The #Scottishsalmon sector is not Scottish nor sustainable. There is a constant drive for automation at the expense of jobs, and not in anyone's wildest dreams can they say that they protect the environment that they are literally shitting all over. #Offthetable

The #Scottishsalmon sector isn't sustainable or Scottish. It undermines food security at home (their medication are toxic to marine life + fish shit destroys habitats) + abroad (wild caught fish/krill used to feed farmed salmon are a vital part of human + animal diets elsewhere).

Massive protests against the Russian-backed government of Hungary, with Peter Magyar absolutely destroying Orban in the polls. If Orban allows a free election, it's over for Putin's puppet.

Each scene in Barbara Greg's wood engravings becomes a little world, a contained environment, and so it is with 'The Grass Snake Taking the Last of the Summer's Warmth.' (1950) Whatever the scene shows, there is no elsewhere, no alternative - a complete world.

@RAF_Luton What a putz. The aircraft isn’t an F-111. It is a GF1 Tornado.

Fact of the Day: The F-111 fighter jet uses Tactically Increased Thermal Shadow technology to multiply the number of shadows it makes to confuse the baddies and make it look like more airplanes are attacking them than there actually are. Photographed from a Canberra

This is the ad Donald Trump woke up furious about. Would be a shame if it went viral.

After Trump and Witkoff trumpeted the alleged achievement of Russia agreeing to security guarantees for Ukraine, Lavrov says that Russia only agrees to guarantees in which Russia (and China) have a veto, as per the Russian proposal in Istanbul in 2022. That is, nobody is allowed to defend Ukraine from Russia unless Russia and China agree. Great progress all around.
