For The Queen's Platinum Jubilee, Ancient Trees Have Been Dedicated To Her

In honor of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee, the Prince of Wales has asked people to protect "dwindling" historic trees.

To commemorate the Queen's 70-year reign, a network of 70 ancient woodlands and 70 ancient trees will be dedicated to her.

Among those included are the woodland that inspired Winnie the Pooh's 100 Acre Wood and the apple tree where Sir Isaac Newton discovered gravity.

The prince stated that we must "keep the precious historic woodland habitats for future generations."

The Queen's Green Canopy, whose patron is Prince Charles, has been encouraging people to plant trees in honor of the Jubilee and leave a legacy for the Queen.

"We must plant more trees and hedgerows in fields, churchyards, and avenues if we are to build the ancient trees of the future," the prince concluded.

Prince Charles called for the "dwindling" historic natural habitat to be renewed as he displayed the collection of woodlands and trees that will be safeguarded across the UK.

Woodlands and trees, he noted, exist not only for "everyone's enjoyment," but also to support biodiversity and offer materials for artisans.

The Queen will be honored by the dedication of historic trees and woodlands, which will raise awareness of the need of preserving ancient trees and woodlands.

Their steady and reassuring presence, according to Prince Charles, was "a reminder of our long-serving queen and her enduring loyalty."

"Let us make certain that, in her name, we can now conserve and strengthen this amazing living canopy for the next 70 years and hopefully much more," he continued.

Ministers May Ignore The JCVI And Push For Covid Vaccinations For All 12- To 15-Year-Olds

Angel

Ministers could ignore their official vaccine consultants for the first time and push for Covid vaccinations for all 12- to 15-year-olds, after a scientific body ruled that the net health benefit of vaccination was too tiny. Ministers will seek additional data that could help them overturn the watchdog's decision, highlighting a deepening divergence between the government and scientific experts over the next phase of the vaccine campaign. After days of speculation, the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) released a statement on Friday saying that while the health benefits of vaccinating the entire age group outweighed the risks, "the margin of benefit is considered too small to support universal vaccination of healthy 12- to 15-year-olds," At this time, the evidence is insufficient to justify universal immunization of healthy 12- to 15-year-olds." On Friday, a line of young people formed in London to get vaccinated. Instead, the group advised expan...

Michelle Mone, A Tory Colleague, Has Been Accused Of Sending A Racist And Nasty Message.

Michelle Mone, a Conservative peer, has been accused of sending a racist message to an Indian-origin man, who claims in an official complaint that she informed him he was "a waste of a guy's white skin." The remark was purportedly used by a Tory member of the House of Lords in a WhatsApp message made in June 2019 amid a discussion over a deadly yacht disaster off the coast of Monaco. The message was part of a series of WhatsApp interactions that were screenshotted and handed to the House of Lords Standards Commissioner as part of a complaint alleging that Lady Mone sent racist and abusive texts. The complaint and screenshots of the discussions have been obtained by The Guardian, in which Mone appears to make insulting statements about the man's partner's mental health, referring to her as a "mental loony" and "nut case bird." Mone's texts were not sent in the course of her legislative duties, according to the commissioner, thus he was unabl...

The Supreme Court Appears To Be Leaning Toward Upholding A Mississippi Abortion Legislation That Would Overturn Roe V. Wade.

Angel

  The Supreme Court hinted on Wednesday that it is on the verge of significantly curtailing abortion rights in the United States, and that it is likely to maintain a Mississippi law that violates one of the key principles of the Roe v. Wade decision, which was handed down over 50 years ago. It was uncertain if the court would finally overturn Roe, which held that women have a fundamental right to terminate their pregnancies. Mississippi's statute forbidding most abortions after 15 weeks, according to Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., is not a "dramatic departure" from viability, and gives women adequate time to decide whether or not to terminate their pregnancies. However, none of the court's six conservative members expressed support for upholding the court's ruling that states cannot prohibit abortion before fetal viability, which is commonly believed to be between 22 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. "Why would 15 weeks be an improper line?" he continued. O...

The Court Battle Of A Dudley Mother Over Her Autistic Son's Conviction

The mother of an autistic man imprisoned for robbery claims she is seeking to clean his name after the legal system failed to recognize his handicap. Joan Martin says that Osime Brown, 23, was unable to conduct the crime due to his autism, and that he was not given a fair trial. She's working with lawyers to challenge a "miscarriage of justice" alleging institutional prejudice. The Ministry of Justice stated that it was unable to comment on specific cases. Mr Brown, from Dudley, was convicted in 2018 together with other defendants of a 2016 robbery including the theft of a cellphone. He was also found guilty of attempted robbery and perverting the course of justice, which Ms Martin was not aware of. Jamaica-born Mr Brown spent half of a five-year sentence and risked deportation, but the Home Office dropped the plans in June of last year. Campaigners said that he lacked a support network in Jamaica and would struggle to reintegrate if he returned. Ms Martin claimed that he...
