"Releasing just 20 lynx in Northumberland would be enough to create a healthy wild population, research has found, and most people in the area would support the practice. Northumberland Wildlife Trust has been working to see if the wild cats, which became extinct in Britain about 1,300 years ago as a result of hunting and habitat loss, could be returned to the area.

"Armed police threatened a peaceful protester with arrest under the Terrorism Act for holding a Palestinian flag and having signs saying 'Free Gaza' and 'Israel is committing genocide', accusing her of supporting a proscribed organisation." "In the encounter, which she filmed, one officer told her: 'Mentioning freedom of Gaza, Israel, genocide, all of that all come under proscribed groups, which are terror groups that have been dictated by the government'. He went on to say that the phrase 'Free Gaza' was 'supportive of Palestine Action', adding it was an offence 'to express an opinion or belief that is supportive of a proscribed organisation, namely Palestine Action is an offence under section 12(1A) of the Terrorism Act'. The officer told her she had committed that offence." This was always going to happen πŸ˜’
