They proceeded to hunt multiple stags and one eyewitness report from the day details an extremely concerning and disturbing incident. What was described as a "gigantic stag" ran across the A39 in an attempt to escape the hunt. The stag “was flipped over the top of the car. Its leg kicked out smashing the rear nearside window. The Stag landed heavily on the verge.” Thankfully the driver and her young child were unharmed but were extremely shaken up. The hunt's response to this was to flee the scene as police were called. The eyewitness, despite looking for the stag, couldn't see him. The extent of his injuries and his fate are unknown. Despite criminal charges being brought against hunt master Chris Gibbons and huntsman Martin Watts for the killing of a stag on the 16th of March 2026 and a further charge for Watts relating to hunting in working quarry, this has been no deterrent for their escalating behaviour.

Three waves of ballistic missiles have been launched at Kyiv by Russian “humanitarians” since yesterday evening. They used 21 missiles. Unfortunately, numerous sites across the city have been hit and damaged: ordinary residential buildings, energy facilities, infrastructure at one of the railway stations and the metro, shopping malls, and businesses. Even a monastery is among the damaged sites. Our emergency services are working at all the affected locations. Twelve of our regions came under Russian attack overnight. In Kyiv and across the regions, 34 people were injured, including five children. As of now, two people have been confirmed killed. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Almost immediately after another round of talks, Russia launched a pointed attack. This means there has been no real change in its attitude toward everything that is happening. It is important to keep trying to find the right solutions to end this war. But when Russia responds to negotiations with ballistic missiles, real pressure on Russia is needed to bring about different steps – steps toward ending the killing. Stronger air defenses and the rapid delivery of missiles, the ability to destroy ballistic missile launchers, sanctions over the war – all of this must be in place. I am grateful to everyone who sees the situation for what it is and acknowledges the reality. The aggressor deserves to be treated accordingly. Ukraine deserves support. People's lives deserve protection. Thank you to everyone who stands with Ukraine!

BREAKING: Zohran Mandani announces free pet food at 22 NYC food pantries starting today, to help struggling families keep their pets. "No New Yorker should have to choose between feeding themselves and feeding their pets. Keeping families together means keeping pets at home, too." This is way better than using my tax dollars to buy Russian diesel. Thank you, Mayor, for showing how our tax dollars can be used to directly support our own citizens and their families!

The Govt saying we must drill more fossil fuels so we can use the tax revenues to fund the green transition is about as logical as a doctor telling you to smoke 2 packs a day to raise the money for your lung transplant You don’t put out a fire by pouring on more fuel 🔥#Jackdaw

Just one week after the Quantock Staghounds chased a stag onto the A39 and he was hit by a car, it almost happened again. The stag had already been chased over the A358 at Crowcombe and came very close before turning back. He eventually escaped. w/ @mendiphuntsabs @SomersetSabs

Spire Nottingham Hospital has confirmed that it has withdrawn its sponsorship of the Quorn Hunt's Ingarsby Chase following serious allegations arising from drone footage filmed by @NhantsHuntsabs.

The Covid Inquiry’s Module 6 report is devastating. Its central conclusion: adult social care was treated as “something of an afterthought”, while “protecting the NHS” sometimes came at the expense of people receiving and providing care. 1/10

"Anglian Water fined £1.6M for polluting River Brain in Essex." Over the last 15 years Anglian Water has been found guilty of 79 different environmental offences and already paid almost £5 million in fines. Has any of it made any difference whatsoever? Of course not. Perhaps later this morning the @CommonsEFRA would like to ask the polluters why. newcivilengineer.com/latest/…

When will this Labour Government stop tinkering? Thames Water is a busted flush. It's worthless. Cheer up the nation. Nationalise it now. Not a penny compensation. theguardian.com/politics/202…

Good to see well done BBC Exciting news! Naturewatch launches on Friday, 6 November, and the show will run year-round as a weekly video podcast based near Bristol. The new series will give viewers a continuous, weekly look at British wildlife through every season. Host Megan McCubbin told the BBC: “Having a weekly programme dedicated to UK wildlife means a lot, as so much activity happens under our noses that often goes unnoticed... but no longer! Packed with science, stories and wonder, I hope it will inspire viewers to get outside and reconnect with the wildlife around us.” Naturewatch begins on Friday 6 November. You can view it on BBC iPlayer or listen on BBC Sounds from 6am, and then watch it at 7.30pm on BBC Two.

For years scientists warned: Clear 20-25% of the Amazon and it collapses. We've cleared 17%. This isn't a future problem. It's happening now.

This polar bear died of starvation in its homeland, which is supposed to be teeming with prey. Photographer and biologist Paul Nicklen, who has spent more than 30 years in the Arctic, says that during most of those years he only came across one dead polar bear, and then within just two weeks his team found two that had died of starvation. Polar bears rely on sea ice to hunt seals, and with rising temperatures and receding ice, the search for food becomes longer and more difficult, potentially ending with some of them dying of hunger.

This is a big deal - The first time England has had a severe drought in modern history - 100 years. It’s another aspect of the failure of water privatisation - private companies, mostly foreign owned and based, are not capable of providing the water service (and sewage) that we need, that’s abundantly clear. We need a change of approach. Thatcher was wrong, the private sector does not do it best in all cases - defo not in a monopoly on a vital national service. Time to take back control of our water. Not ownership necessarily (unless they fail) - just control. buff.ly/HuTO0aq

BREAKING: Ukraine has carried out the world’s first medical evacuation of a human via a drone from the battlefield the 30th mechanised brigade of Ukraine managed to save their injured comrade from a minefield. Just absolutely insane.

A horrific Russian strike in the Kharkiv region. A “shahed” struck people directly – in a park near an ordinary café. Pure atrocity. Six people were killed, including children. A little girl was killed in a stroller – her name was Angelina, she was just over a year old, born in August 2025… Her mother’s name was Inna. She died in the hospital… Another girl who was killed was 11 years old. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Another 14 people were injured, including six more children. I am grateful to everyone who supports Ukraine under these circumstances and helps us shoot down “shaheds,” shoot down missiles, and stop Russian assaults. These are horrific photos, but behind them are shattered lives and the truth about this war. Lives must be protected. Ukraine needs air defense. You can't think about making money with Russia as long as it continues its asinine war. We ask that sanctions on Russia stay in place as long as the killings continue. We ask America to be strong, and we ask it to apply the Lindsey Graham law. We ask Europe to continue its support. We ask that everything possible be done to bring peace and guarantee security. Ukraine wants peace. It is Russia that has insisted on continuing the killing all this time. The world has enough strength to stop the war. That strength must finally be used – against the murderers.

Will Labour next week in the budget tell us sad stories about "difficult decisions" and how there's "no money left?" Or will this Labour Government challenge the broken economic thinking that has lead us to this place? And tax the assets of multimillionaires & billionaires? 👀
