Please read and share our urgent open letter to Jacob Rees-Mogg - a great coalition of organisations all calling for the awful Retained EU Law Bill to be withdrawn ... let's stop this

If you have a local Conservative MP, as I do with Duncan Baker, check how they voted on fracking last night, and what they've previously promised. Then hold them to account at the election that is coming.

What you are doing there Martin is very impressive. Cutting fertiliser, pesticides & diesel use while maintaining & increasing yield & wildlife could not make more sense. Sustainable food security at reduced cost. Surely a vivid glimpse of a potentially much better food future.

Purple Emperor larvae are starting to change into their winter greys & browns, from bright Lincoln green, prior to hibernation. They're masters of the cryptic arts.

These river restoration projects are tremendous but whenever I hear about such re-engineering I think, I wish we could just leave it to the beavers. Holnicote have beavers but by law they still have to be fenced in. theguardian.com/environment/20…
