Nature deprivation is a fast-growing epidemic, harming the health and happiness of hundreds of millions of people worldwide - especially vulnerable and marginalized groups. To combat this, Nature Is a Human Right, founded by Ellen Miles in 2020, is working to make access to green space a recognised right for all, not a privilege.

President Obama left office with these parting words for Americans: “If you’re disappointed by your elected officials, grab a clipboard, get some signatures, and run for office yourself.” Twenty-two-year-old Will Haskell decided to do just that.

Instead, they seek political influence and ultimately control. As one of them has stated succinctly, “There’s no reason why [Christians] should not rule this nation."

Like many, we are working hard to get President Trump reelected. We are convinced by mounting evidence that it has become a matter of life and death and not just a simpler matter of freedom versus slavery.

An evil agenda is unfolding a little each day; otherwise, why is censorship so widespread against any scientist who does not believe in the media lies about the jab?

How close did Jeremy Corbyn come to being prime minister?

The Reckoning will examine America's national trauma, rooted in its long history of slavery and civil rights abuses, but dramatically exacerbated by the impact of recent events and the Trump administration's corrupt and immoral policies. America's failure to acknowledge this trauma, let alone root it out, has allowed it to metastasise. Whether it manifests itself in rising levels of rage and hatred, or hopelessness and apathy, the stress of living in a country many no longer recognize has affected everyone. America is suffering from PTSD - a new leader alone cannot fix it.
