I mean I don’t think he’s doing it for political reasons but if he can’t make *any* capital with the progressive bloc out of the fact that Blair, Trump, Farage, Johnson; Badenoch and Liz Truss are all attacking him on it, he may as well just resign now tbh

It is thought the fox chose to create a den on one of the the islands there because it gives her cubs greater security.

"[Pete Short, the reserve's manager] explained that foxes are reluctant swimmers but are "quite adept" when they take to the water.

Although the fox would attack the wildfowl on land, they are unable to do so once in the water.

"They can't pounce because their legs that are in water," he said.

"So although it might be food very near to them and they might be drooling, they actually can't pounce on to them.""

image-alt-text: Pete is stood in a waterway.  He wears a gloves and a hat and carries a pair of binoculars around his neck. The reed bed is behind him.

I’m sorry, doing this in a baseball cap sold by your campaign store is deliberately disrespecting the dead.

More fun facts about the green bit.

1. It contains one of only two sealed roads connecting Western Australia to the rest of the country.
2. One 90 mile stretch of that road is entirely straight.
3. It's where the Skylab space station crashed.
4. The time zone covers about 200 people.

Pete Short, the reserve's manager, said the ducks and geese were relaxed around her in the water because they know she is "not in a position to attack them".
