Only looked back to when the EFL as we know it started in 1992 - imagine it goes back a lot further - but a team with a pts tally of 96 and a GD +44 would have been automatically promoted in ANY Champ, L1 or L2 season since.
Best team in these POs - come on Wednesday.

That's how many laws the Royal Family have exempted themselves from.
Since Parliament refuses to rein in the Monarch, tell King Charles: rule out Royal exemptions.

New open access paper! #WildlifeTrade is often named as a cause of extinction, but little is known about how many species have become extinct due to trade. We reviewed the literature, and all ‘Extinct’ species on the IUCN Red List to look at the evidence cambridge.org/core/journals/

Are we trading species to extinction? If you're thinking about animals like rhinos or pangolins, the relationship is more complex than it might first appear.

While France is banning short-haul flights, the UK government is now promoting them, under the slogan 'Grow the Economy'
More like 'Kill the Living World'.
Policies like this, in times like these, will be recorded in the history books as ecocide.

I think it will be vital to try to monitor the impacts of such bans. How many imports are prevented? What's the ££ impact locally? What, if any, revenue or alternatives are provided by those pushing for it? What happens to wildlife, habitat & people in TH areas as bans occur?

'Trophy hunting is not a key threat to any species today'

Good to be able to discuss at least some of nuances around #trophyhunting and unintended #conservation risks from bans, on yesterday. These nuances should be important when the Bill goes to the Lords.

A Bill to ban the import of hunting trophies will today be debated by MPs.

Well done … one day people may understand the difference between animal rights and conservation. Both important but very different.

MPs support a ban on the import of hunting trophies to the UK. See here: theguardian.com/environment/20. Seems disproportionate given actual imports, some of which will benefit species in range countries.

That’s the point though - yes when well managed and in the right place tourism is good. Badly managed it can be bad for wildlife and deliver little for communities. Exactly the same arguments can be applied to hunting (or pretty much anything)

Should be interesting to be on this morning talking - hopefully! - about the complexities of #trophyhunting, & the need to ensure #conservation & local livelihoods aren't undermined by a UK import ban. Tune in at 8:20am!
