'Nothing' Left In UK's Military Stockpiles After Arming Ukraine: Times Of London
But one big uncertainty at a moment the West is generally feeling "war fatigue" - according to most public polling among various countries' citizenry - is the question of who will be in the White House in 2025. European officials are nervous that a Trump victory would spell the end of efforts to fuel the proxy war against President Vladimir Putin.

In a statement to MPs on Tuesday, the Foreign Office minister, Andrew Mitchell, said: “It is not for ministers to seek to state where the #ICC has jurisdiction; that is for the chief prosecutor. The chief prosecutor has not been silent on this matter, and I am sure he will continue to express his views.” #Israel #WarCrimes #Gaza

Protestors have blockaded four arms factories in the United Kingdom in solidarity with Palestine.

The protestors, who have organised under the banner of “Workers for a Free Palestine”, include teachers and health workers, among others.

According to Workers for Free Palestine, the four blockade sites in Bournemouth, Lancashire, Brighton, and Glasgow all reportedly produce components for F-35 fighter jets used by Israel during its war on Gaza.

'#Trees have no legal status’: calls rise for stronger protection in #UK against felling

"In Norse mythology, it is Yggdrasil, the world tree, with its branches in the heavens & its roots in the underworld, which underpins the very existence of all creation. When it dies, the myths tell us, the world dies with it."

The beautiful & rare, open grown ‘Summergill Brook Ash’, that probably was a part of an ancient Ash Silvopasture, sitting near the Wales - England boarder, 300 - 400 years old, without ash dieback! It would of witness ‘The Wars of the Three Kingdoms, the British Civil Wars’. It stands strong, with a slightly more decayed Ancient Ash neighbour downstream, holding the oxbow together. 6.96m in girth an Ancient Tree. Black and white image.


We just woke up to "Junior's first horse riding lesson" going on in the field behind the cottage where we're housesitting here in the #UK

The kids resemble six excited jam roly polys in posh riding gear, on tubby Shetland ponies, grinning and flapping their legs trying to work out where the start button is

The ponies look like mutinous pickle jars with toothpicks legs.

I sense excitement is about to happen.

"By announcing hundreds of new oil and gas licences, the prime minister, Rishi Sunak, has become a 'dangerous radical' pursuing 'moral and economic madness'."

"That is not the judgment of Just Stop Oil, or any other environmental campaign group, but the United Nations secretary general, António Guterres."

Rishi Sunak, dangerous radical


The UK has been downgraded in an annual global index of civic freedoms as a result of the government’s “increasingly authoritarian” drive to impose restrictive and punitive laws on public protests.

The UK’s willingness to clamp down on civic freedoms such as the right to peaceful assembly means it is now classified as “obstructed” – putting it alongside countries such as Poland, South Africa and Hungary.

More new work! ❤️

Welcome to Mumbles, near Swansea.

Mumbles is a headland on the Gower Peninsula, right on the southern coast of Wales. It very much like the last burst of summer, even in October. ☀️

FWIW, don't pay the extra £4 to book a megabus table - they are a joke, barely more than a strip. Have written to them to update the completely misleading booking diagram.
