“They just need a brick with a bloody hole in it. Why don’t they get it?” Spot on from the amazing @WriterHannahBT - please do as she asks & lobby your MP 👇
Breaking news!The government has just voted against the same swift brick amendment they voted for 2 years ago. We can only save our swifts if we all act. Email your MP. Ask them to sign edm.parliament.uk/early-day-… MEET your MP. Tell them how much this matters or we’ll lose them

They said they’d build with nature in mind. They said they’d find true win wins for housing & nature. But they’re not even including swift bricks - a brick won’t block development (obvs) & is a lifeline for the only wildlife reliant on buildings to breed. theguardian.com/commentisfre…

4k people have seen this, 146 have liked it, 53 have shared it. ‼️Only 11 people have acted. ‼️Come on guys. It will take 2 minutes and if we work together we could stabilise the population of a 60 million year old species of bird.
People power has never been more vital to the swift brick campaign than now. Please use your voice to urge the govt to mandate swift bricks. Email [email protected] & you’ll receive a template to amend & send to your MP. Tell everyone to join the fight to #SaveOurSwifts

Are we really a nation of nature lovers? I mean deep down, in a personal, committed way? Or is the UK's renowned ‘love’ for nature more conceptual and theoretical than out there in the real world?

Octopuses are remarkable (8 legs, 3 hearts, blue-green blood & much more) & proposed farming of them @PescanovaCorp is completely at odds with everything we understand about the species & what we know to be morally right
