This says so much about where most people's diets are in the UK, our health crisis, farming crisis - and the vast imbalance of power and profit in UPF at the expense people's health & lives. Local supermarket - 1 tiny fruit/veg section, 3 aisles of biscuits, choc, crisps.

Hi @BBCSport your 'rate them' piece on #EnglandLionesses is poor taste. These players are people, not pawns! Given how tough womens' professional sport is too, this is really poor form and not reflective of the game/ sportsmanship. Please take it down! It's more GB news that BBC.

Hey @GaryLineker can you call this out please? Really horrible poor form from @BBCSport asking people to 'rate' the Lioness players individually, with 'give it up' at one end of the scale

What might land reform look like if the Labour government were serious about it?. A lot of farmers today owe it to the creation of the council farm estate. It substantially increased land access and it could be kinda replicated (and improved upon) today. 1/🧵.
