From the newspapers
“A farmer who hired diggers and builders to illegally rip out trees along a riverbank has been jailed for 12 months.
But the farmer was jailed – and ordered to pay more than £1.2m in court and restoration costs – after a judge described his action on the Herefordshire river as ‘ecological vandalism on an industrial scale’.“
Today he was jailed for 12 months and disqualified from being a company director for three years.
The cost to the damage to the River Lugg at Kingsland, near Leominster, and the embankments amounts to £600,000, which Price must repay in 12 months.“
[Daily Mail]
I recall blogging about that greedy farmer-vandal at the time, 4-5 years ago. Good to see that he has been punished, and especially that he will now have to pay for the restorative work.
Interesting. I have been surprised at the —so far— relatively modest damage caused to the Ukraine rail system since early 2022.

…says an American woman whose only known job before getting into the System political racket was acting for a year or so in rock-bottom-quality soft-porn films: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joy_Morrissey.
Why is she even an MP in this country?
All aboard for World War Three…
Actually, if Ukraine were to be admitted, while a large part of its own territory is occupied by another power (Russia), NATO would be breaking its own rules, surely?
If it wanted to, and were willing to risk the anger of the “tail-wags-dog” USA, Russia could obliterate Israel in a matter of minutes…

I am glad to hear that the POS responsible for the up-rooting/destruction of those trees will go to jail and, most importantly, he will have to pay a lot of money for the damage he caused.
That moron who calls himself “The Best Frank” (BTW, how modest!) must be another of those lefties/do-gooders you described as having mental problems (LOL)
A) They consider the slightest criticism as a dangerous personal attack although they call for the extermination of those who do not think like them.
B) They claim to be famous and loved my thousands of people (I think the right word would be megalomaniac…)
Can you see the pattern? (LOL)

Yes. It was a terrible act of environmental vandalism.
As for that “Frank” tweeter, he —like so many “antifascist” types on Twitter— has very obvious mental problems:

Yes, you are right and I remember that brilliant post of yours. Actually, the amount of mentally-ill people on the Internet is quite serious and 9 out of 10 are “antifascists” or “Social Justice Warriors”. There is definitely a connection between insanity and that kind of ideologies.
Let’s have some fun, look at this obscene display of ignorance:

and every one of those cretins has a vote. Democracy, however defined, cannot be more than an empty word unless the electorate is both cultured and educated. When you see a film like that, it makes it easier to understand why the “choice” for President of the USA is a sham such as the Biden-Trump “choice”.

Very good observation. I am sure you are familiar with this famous quote (attributed to Winston Churchill). “The best argument against democracy is a five-minute talk with the average voter”
