- Reposted by Save Lea MarshesUtterly damning report from Office for Environmental Protection - the Govt’s not only missing its targets to protect wildlife in England, it’s also failing on *almost all* environmental measures - and in some cases actively destroying the natural world through its obsession with growth at all costs
- Reposted by Save Lea Marshes🚨Thames Water is on the brink of collapse. 🙋We asked its customers what should happen next. 54% think the water regulator Ofwat should put it into special administration. And over two thirds (68%) believe that Thames Water should be run in the public sector. Read the full results here.

[Not loaded yet] - Reposted by Save Lea MarshesThis is what many of us have been saying. Part 3 of the Planning & Infrastructure Bill is based on a myth: that we don't have enough homes because wildlife and green spaces are protected. It will solve nothing, and inflict terrible harm on our remaining ecosystems www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

- The problem isn’t the planning system. It’s a broken, profit-driven housing model that banks land and starves supply. Scrapping nature protections won’t build 1.5m homes, it will just bulldoze public trust and the countryside. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
