This is @NorthumbrianH2O allowing fowl water to spew into the Wreigh Burn (SSSI) in Thropton and both the @EnvAgencyYNE and @NE_Northumbria have been as equally useless in resolving the problem. Not just what you see but raw sh*t and women’s sanitary products have been allowed.
2/2 What a great shame that we do not have the same laws and grants available to us in England as they do in Scotland. It would have enabled us to purchase this estate as a community and allowed us to enhance and preserve it for future generations, long after we are all gone.
1/2 The first sale of the Rothbury Estate has made it to market. Nearly 10,000 acres (being sold as a whole) that has been in the same family for 691 years and includes one of the regions most popular walking attractions, Simonside. I reiterate my earlier point…….

BREAKING 🚨The government has just announced its new energy security strategy and it's looking dangerously lacking on action needed to combat the climate crisis. It's time the government truly committed to a green transition! theguardian.com/business/2023/…
🤦♀️... @Jeremy_Hunt. The solutions to the energy crisis are staring us in the face. Renewables and insulation are easy and cheap to set up, and will quickly lower bills AND emissions. This should be a no brainer! #Budget2023
Budget does little to meet UK’s net zero carbon goals, say campaigners. UK Govt lacks ambition to meet #NetZero targets. theguardian.com/environment/20…
The UKs homes are some of the coldest in Europe. Insulating would keep our communities warm and healthy, bring our energy bills down and cut emissions. Find out much you and your community could save if the government upgraded our homes ⬇️ affordableenergycalculator.org/?source=TW&sub…
