And it was something beautifully covered actually on TripUS yesterday.

But our researchers pointed out in the Texas election,

Taylor Rehmed captured approximately 79% of the Hispanic vote in the district, a 26-point jump from the 53% that Kamala Harris received in the 2024 election.

Precincts with majority Hispanic population swung an average of 34 points towards the Democrat, compared with the Democrat's performance in 2022.

So there is a real sense that Trump may be losing the Hispanic vote.

The surprise in that election, Trump's defeat of Kamala Harris,

which made a huge marginal difference was African-American voters and Hispanic voters voting for Trump.

And that seems to be certainly with the Hispanic vote collapsing and maybe this part of that story.

Yeah.

But it is extraordinary how successful he's been insulting huge bits of his demographic voter base again and again.

Yeah.

Well, so Darren's right.

When we were bringing together that 25-year environment plan, even though it was a Tory government, there was a moment of real cross-party optimism around this.

Actually, I disagree profoundly with Michael Gove, and I thought he went too far on some of the re-worlding stuff.

But broadly speaking, there was a moment where we were working very strongly with environmental charities, with the national parks, with Natural England, the Environment Agency, to define a 25-year plan.

which has largely been taken on by the new government and pushed ahead.

But at the heart of it is nature or pompously biodiversity.

We talk a lot about climate, which is completely critical, but this is about the fact that we are losing species at an incredible rate.

Many indicators suggesting 85% decline in various species.

This idea of the Anthropocene, which is that basically humans are eliminating species.
