Today is World Soil Day and to mark it, I’m announcing my new web site https://t.co/pRX72neRBW The site not only brings soil to life in a completely new way (dynamic & holistic!), it also explains how that soil life got here - for the first time ever!!

I've just had this published, although for some reason the editor added some tosh on 'neonics' whereas I would have said nitrate fertiliser is warming the planet more. https://t.co/R51jxhfqDE Since then, the March temperature shows a further massive jump...

Sound analysis of the farmer protest movements across Europe by @ChathamHouse. Combining resilient food production with environmental & climate outcomes is an inevitable imperative: but the transition must be socially & economically just. https://t.co/RUVemaMJyY

Events in France and Germany show that policies to deliver sustainable food, transport and energy systems need to take far better account of the needs of rural communities.

Last weekend saw mass demonstrations against the AfD and the far right across Germany – just how did the AfD gain its foothold?

I remember going to conference organised by Lord Larry Whitty the Defra Minister to encourage public procurement of healthy food..in 2005. I can't wait as long again..
Later today, @AnthonyMangnal1 will open a Westminster debate on public procurement and healthy eating. Citizens across the political divide want change: 84% think there should be stronger standards for food in hospitals and schools. #TheFoodConversation

A devastating 4-minute demolition of the #RwandaBill by @RhonddaBryant. Each of his five reasons for voting against this bill is unanswerable. The five together are an annihilation of the govt's nonsense. If you only watch one speech from this debate, this is the one. ~AA

The government can now inspect the bank account of every pensioner in the country. But not the offshore trusts in Gibraltar, the Cayman Isles and Panama where Nadhim Zahawi, Jacob Rees-Mogg and Lord Cameron stash their loot. Convenient, no?

Millions of intensively farmed chickens along the Wye are force fed each day with soy-based feed imported by @Cargill from deforested Amazonia, thus importing 1000s of tons of phosphorus into the river catchment. One form of ecocide causing another ☠️

If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.

Spot on by Baroness @SayeedaWarsi - Netanyahu is on the record in 2019 supporting Hamas as a way to thwart peace with Palestinians. He is also associated with thwarting *both* peace efforts. When Rabin was killed, his widow blamed Netanyahu’s influence. https://t.co/BTQqzGnWpD

As foretold in #bittersweetbrexit
Ministers have sold farming down the Swanny by doing trade deals after #Brexit that undermined British producers. “We can now import eggs from Mexico without any restrictions on how they’re produced at all. Those are directly competitive with 🇬🇧 eggs.” https://t.co/jW9F8g2LR7
