Scientists thrilled but confused by world-first sighting of a polar bear in Antarctic 🐻❄️
The bear showed a peaceful attitude to local penguins.

On Saturday, Watch Group members joined Peaty Pals in teaching members of the community how to make tussac plant seed bombs. During the morning, 434 seed bombs were made. These will be transported to Dyke Island where they will be used for ongoing tussac plant #restoration.

You caved in to the mob.
You can’t be trusted.
Tonight @UKLabour’s amendment allowed Parliament to come together to support an immediate humanitarian ceasefire.
