Why is this allowed @Ofcom ? This man Anderson is not just any MP he is Vice Chairman of the Conservative Party. How can that be balanced ? What is the point of @Ofcom if it fails to regulate ?

Re @willjennings80 I thought climate breakdown was universal. Turns out Birmingham is exempt. How does that work?

Impressive. Often nature simply needs a helping hand and then it will do the rest. Confirms that willow is a major player in restoring biodiversity not least because it supports a high level of insects as it flowers annually ie it is a pollinator @EnergyCropsUK @Mike_Pratt_NWT

Paul Powlesland: Let there be life! Pleased to report my experiment to find a cheap way to naturalise hard river edges in urban areas appears to be successful. Last winter I coppiced long willow branches, put them in hessian bags of silt &amp; dropped them into the Roding; many trees are now growing

The biodiversity crisis we face comes in many forms. One of the most endangered species, often ignored, is the ‘sensible one nation Tory’. Surely time to recognise this highly endangered &amp; increasingly rare animal?

Re @TCorbynwasright Hello Tynedale Socialists.
How are the three of you? Willing to put a name up or are you going to continue to hide your identity?

Agroforestry needs to be in the mix. It can help hold water on the farm, provide an additional income stream, boost biodiversity while maintaining food production at current levels. It’s shade potential will also be an increasing plus for both livestock &amp; crops. @Agroforestry

Joe Stanley 🇺🇦: Even a cursory look at the news (or out the window) confirms this. Farming is on the front line of climate change.
Food shortages will drive price inflation, conflict &amp; migration; we’re going to need to find innovative ways of farming.

All timber framed and storing carbon, if I’m not mistaken? Hence substituting for concrete &amp; steel both of which have high levels of embodied carbon. Good looking buildings with a good climate story to tell.

Well, at @TopHatIO we’d like to disagree!

It might not seem like much, but this is fantastic news &amp; a big step towards net zero. Lack of available insurance has been the barrier preventing £billions of development in timber, w/ concrete and steel used instead. Insurance unlocks huge carbon emission reductions 🌅🌲🪵🏗️🏢

Are you the same guy who dropped his house building targets? Because I’m the guy who started building more council homes than the rest of England combined, exceeded your affordable homes targets &amp; built more homes of any kind than since the 1930s. This is desperate nonsense.
<div class="rsshub-quote">
Rishi Sunak: Labour’s Sadiq Khan has failed to deliver the homes London needs, driving up prices and making it harder for families to get on the housing ladder.
So I’m stepping in to boost house building and make home ownership a reality again for Londoners.

This is factually untrue @DavidGHFrost
Please read the Net Zero Review before making incorrect statements like this. The Mission Zero report very clearly sets out trade offs and costs, with new factual analysis on this
<div class="rsshub-quote">
David Frost: Good article from @FraserNelson. Excellent if the PM is to start talking about the trade-offs of net zero.
But if so he will have to take on people like @CSkidmoreUK who claim there aren't any trade-offs &amp; delivering net zero will *boost* growth.
