The festival includes ‘grow your own’ contest as UK suffers from self imposed #BrexitDisaster to #food supply. Instead of hosting the EU 2023 European Capital of Culture, scientists, technologists, engineers, artists & mathematicians from across the UK
are working together on ten large-scale projects designed to “bring people together and showcase the UK’s creativity globally”. #BrexitShambles disguised as fun competition?
This government will never bring people together. We’re #NotMoving on till they are gone! #GTTO#FBPE
From June Austin on Facebook:
I REMAIN
I remain a passionate supporter of the European Union.
I remain proud that I voted to stay in the EU in the 2016 referendum.
I remain convinced Britain has made a huge mistake by leaving.
I remain worried that we shall all be poorer as a result of Brexit.
I remain terrified that Brexit is moving Britain into dangerous territory.
I remain appalled by right-wing press propaganda against the EU.
I remain convinced that co-operation is preferable to isolation.
I remain determined that we should have the right to protest.
I remain furious about the widening gap between rich and poor.

Last night at 6pm it was getting dark but my two @dogs4EU needed to lift a leg.
Took my Dad’s old walking stick with me. 1. I’m always a bit worried about walking alone in the dark, even with 2 dogs. I’m no pretty 30yr old but rape is about power not looks. #AllWomen
2. On Sunday, I was warned that in the park I walk my dogs in, a man tried to steal a woman’s dog in broad daylight.
My spaniel was stolen from our home in 2010 and it took me 18mths of heart breaking campaigning to find him. I rescued my GSDx in that time as I was scared
at home. They burgled my house just for my dog. The police appointed a case worker as it was a burglary, but the form I was given was for stolen ‘goods’! And the thieves were never found. The psycho who had him killed 4dogs & 2women later! He had no prosecution for my dog theft
@SimonPease1@DwWork2 A joint statement from Great Britain’s three Chief Veterinary Officers:
We have taken swift action to limit the spread of the disease and have introduced a legal requirement for all poultry and captive bird keepers to keep their birds housed or otherwise separate from wild birds.
@SimonPease1@DwWork2 .
Whether you keep just a few birds or thousands, you are now legally required to keep your birds indoors, or take appropriate steps to keep them separate from wild birds. We have not taken this decision
@SimonPease1@DwWork2 lightly, but it is the best way to protect your birds from this highly infectious disease.

“It is heartening to know that European Union leaders have succeeded in meeting one of the toughest challenges in the organization’s history by agreeing a package of measures to rescue their economies from the disruption caused by the pandemic.
July 22, 2020
Once again, the European Union has shown the importance of taking the common interests of all its members into account. Through persistent negotiation and compromise the respective leaders have reached an agreement. This shows wisdom and maturity in a world often unsettled
My @dogs4EU, like all of us are getting old. They need medicines for debilitating conditions of old age. #arthritis#Pain#epilepsy drugs. Yesterday, I found that my vet couldn’t find my Bonnie’s medicine. Eventually, found a new supplier which cost me £15 more. #AnimalWelfare
My @dogs4EU are my family. @SODEMAction@No10Vigil@wooferendum knows them. They were by my side. Now they are frail, I won’t let them suffer. But what if medicines run out? Are pet owners and farmers aware that #NoDealMeansNoMeds due to customs delays. #Brexit raised cost.
How many pets will suffer, be abandoned or even put to sleep as owners can’t/won’t buy their life saving medicines? My vet is very upset. Double whammy of #COVID__19 and No Deal will cause millions of #animals to die! Avoidable deaths of innocents! @DogsTrust is aware. Are you???
