How terribly sad to see two examples of the many people who are now allegedly making this "lifestyle choice," both within a short walk of London's Euston Station earlier today. They need compassion and understanding, not vilification .

338 Followers 98 Following Retired Public Servant thoroughly enjoyed my 30 years in policing. Privileged to have retired as Head of Counter Terrorism Policing North West.Look at this ! It’s an ancient woodland & SSSI . Where is the accountability , where is the law , where is the respect & where is the understanding that we are now fighting tooth & nail for nature & everything matters . C’mon @EnvAgency and @NaturalEngland let’s get this sorted
@ChrisGPackham @Shell @Greenpeace @GreenpeaceUK Can you support us, Chris? We need your advocacy to push for an immediate clean up of illegally dumped landfill in #ancientwoodland and #SSSI The authorities let it happen despite our proactive reporting. Now it’s toxic legacy poisoning the wildlife and River Beult.
@InCarlisle Still racking up the awards Phil. Congratulations.
He is also my wife’s uncle, but honestly there is so little scope for investigations in local journalism given the financial pressures, so it is just hugely impressive that he is doing this and that @newsandstar supports it.
I am blown away by all the messages of congratulations after winning Weekly Photographer of the Year for my work for The Cumberland News at the Regional Press Awards today. Thank you all #photojournalism #pressphoto
I somehow managed to get an A on my @NCTJ_news media law exam - thanks to @NCTJDarlington for putting up with me being a huge ball of anxiety beforehand!

And so @DancingSheep1, @StuWalkerPhotos, @rogerlytollis and @ChrisStoryCN are on their way to #o2awards tonight. Wishing them, @joncolman and @cumbnews best of luck! We're proud simply that you're shortlisted.
Good luck @rogerlytollis and @joncolman. If there's any justice you will both triumph at #O2MediaAwards2019. You're both irreplaceable and indispensable. And thanks for the selfie chaps - good to see you got dressed up for the occasion.
Coming off here for a bit; having a bad time with my mental health and I think it’ll be beneficial to have a break from social media, especially this addictive and increasingly toxic platform.
Very sad news this morning. John was so proud of Carlisle and was always a source of encouragement to me. Always positive and an inspiration to many. A light has gone out but his memory and achievements will shine on. Thoughts are with John’s family at this sad time.
