The last episode in my 10-part serial about wildlife crime & conservation on the Pembrokeshire bird-islands. It’s been a great pleasure to get this stuff out where somebody might actually read it. Previous episodes at nation.cymru/?s=Howell+Harr….

The final episode of the Gannets of Grassholm reflects on how the protections which evolved following the terrible events of 1890 have helped create the third largest colony of northern gannets on Earth ✍️@trefeca 👉wp.me/p8Mk4U-Ado nation.cymru/culture/the-ga…

The Gannets of Grasshom, Part 10: Aftermath - a Happy Ending?
The tenth and final episode of the remarkable history of the Gannets of Grassholm reflects on how the network of protections which evolved following the terrible events of 1890 have helped make...
I’m a Marine Corp veteran, trained by LEOs when I served in US embassies on how to handle unruly individuals or protestors. 1) If you are the guys with guns, you are the ones responsible for the situation. Doubly so if you outnumber the person you’re engaging. 2) You do not…
In French we don’t say « ICE » we say « GESTAPO » and I think it’s more explicit.
“The people who run this regime do not understand law enforcement as an institution to be stewarded. The view it as a tool for the domination of their enemies. And their “enemies” include about half of America.” thebulwark.com/p/renee-good-a…
I study authoritarianism for a living, so I do not say this lightly: America isn't facing an authoritarian future. America is living an authoritarian present. (A long 🧵) /1
The unpopular, uncomfortable truth about jury trials is that those who need them are not ‘others’. People I’ve represented: police officers, university students, taxi drivers, teachers, chemists, business people, *children* & those who simply went for a drive in their car.
This is one of the best, frame-by-frame breakdowns here by Brenna Perez of the Minnesota ICE shooting, proving without a doubt that ICE agent wasn't in danger, and he murdered Renee Good. Make sure everyone sees it.
Indeed. The Trump administration has recruited its very own SS.
Ms Good was terrified of these federal thugs. Who can blame her? What is America doing to itself? One wonders how many of these ICE agents are Proud Boys & Oath Keepers.
shockingly a recruiting strategy centered around the message of “join ICE so you can be a thug who brutalizes the enemies of the Volk” results in you hiring a lot of people who are thugs who brutalize people they perceive to be enemies of the Volk
A woman was reversing in Asda car park today and she almost bumped into my trolley so she said "sorry". I said "that's okay", but my American friends are saying the correct response would have been to shoot her in the head three times and claim I acted in self-defence 🤷♀️
It _is_ scared of its own shadow, & of almost everything else too. The only thing that really seems to set its juices flowing is kicking its own core supporters in the goodies, but then it realises it’s made a mistake it won’t get away with & tries to unkick. Not possible.
The big story might be the collapse of Labour’s popularity in power. But it’s also surely how poll paralysed this government is? A nominally social democratic government with a thumping majority after 14 years of Tory misrule which behaves as if it’s scared of its own shadow.

Excellent summary.
The UK's empty words on Ukraine - a must-read via the brilliant @edwardlucas "We're promising forces we don't have, to enforce a ceasefire that doesn't exist, under a plan that has yet to be drawn up, endorsed by a superpower that is no longer our ally" thetimes.com/comment/column…
Yes. Which United States are they thinking about — the one they remember, or the one they can see & hear?
The congnitive dissonance required for European leaders to worry about an armed invasion of Greenland while simultaneously insisting that Ukraine needs US security guarantees is astounding.
Meanwhile in the Palestinian Occupied Territory, Israel continues its genocide in Gaza and it is moving to start construction on a vast illegal settlement in the heart of the West Bank, designed to “bury the idea of a Palestinian state”. Welcome to 2026 theguardian.com/world/2026/jan…
The calculated destruction of the medical sector is one of the key tools of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. The erasure of healthcare has killed an unimaginable number of Palestinians and will continue to kill, maim, and affect the bodies and mind of the population for decades to come
Director of Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza, Dr. Mohammed Abu Salmiya, announces: We have lost half of kidney patients, and deaths continue on a daily basis.
Israel has always treated the people of Gaza horrifically. It did not start on October 7. In 1956, Israel first occupied the Gaza Strip for a few months. The IDF then raided Khan Younis—already crowded with families displaced in 1948. Israeli troops moved through the town and…
No president has ever more clearly deserved impeachment, conviction, and disqualification than Donald J. Trump after Jan 6, 2021. The failure of most Senate Republicans to do their duty will echo for eons. They should be forever defined by their disgrace, cowardice, and betrayal.
2 died of Ebola: They said Obama should resign. 4 died in Benghazi: They had Hillary testify for 11 hours, held 33 hearings, and launched a 4-year probe. 881,776 Covid deaths, an armed insurrection & theft of classified documents: They cheered, and elected Trump as dictator.
If Trump should die before I wake, I pray O’Lord, that news ain’t fake. 🙏🏾
Isn't it ironic that many Brits voted for Brexit to reduce immigration? How did this happen?
