Flocks of 20+ screaming swifts seen over both Upton St Leonard's and Hucclecote this morning. At King George V playing field, they were regularly flying low enough overhead you could hear their wingbeats 🪽🪽 #GlosBirds

This is so disgusting. Imagine the mindset that made this. People are dying. Afraid. Exploited and desperate. The Tories now chasing Reform to the very hard right and it’s sickening. Just when you think they couldn’t sink any lower …

Short 🧵 on February’s deluge. It was exceptionally wet across England. In fact, the 4th wettest February since 1871 with 225% of average rainfall. Fenland in East Anglia saw 350%! But that’s only half the story. It’s been very wet for a long time.
