This is outrageous. What hope for future generations?

This is an important and heartfelt letter. Unfortunately there has been a real blindspot among some people on the British and European left. We should oppose imperialism and fascism, wherever they occur. heckle.scot/2025/11/an-o...

Ex #BBC Director General Tim Davie was a huge fan of the #misinformation and Hate Speech of Nigel Farage. #bbcqt #ReformUK #journalism #auspol

Fabulous news!

We need to rewild 30% of the planet to restore nature & protect our wildlife, but Britain is falling behind. So I've signed this new petition calling on one of our biggest landowners - the Church of England - to rewild its land. Join me? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Congratulations, Kate!

Just over £13k still needed to save 112 acres of nature-rich land amid the dairy pastures of Devon. Please chip in if you can, or share this widely.

There's good reason why the oil and gas industry lobbies so hard for carbon capture - because it's the one 'climate solution' that wouldn't necessarily require shutting down the oil and gas industry But it doesn't work. They need to be shut down

Congratulations, Ian!

RIP Tony Harrison

Thanking @frazzledlit.bsky.social for showcasing my story.

Keep fracking out of Britain

Delighted to be included in this issue.

Looking forward to this

The billionaire press barons must be having a right laugh… Here we are distracted & arguing over asylum seekers (0.2% of the population) Meanwhile, billionaires (just 0.0002% of the population) hoard more wealth than half the UK Immigration isn’t draining us Inequality is.

#BattleshipPotemkin, 100 years on and still brilliant.

New research from Pesticide Action Network reveals the extent of pesticide use by UK councils. These are poisons being sprayed in your street, your local park. Pls share. For links to the full report & to find out what you can do, follow the link below www.pan-uk.org/pesticide-fr...

Today, the UK government intends to ban the non-violent protesters Palestine Action as a "terrorist" group, exposing anyone supporting them to terrorism charges. In 2 days, 380,000 people have watched this video on YT alone. You're going to need a bigger prison. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECkV...

Outrageous. Won't stop me supporting Palestine.

IMPORTANT. Please sign and repost. This petition is based on our recent research which found that English rivers are universally contaminated with these potent neurotoxic insecticides, the source being treated dogs and cats. Link in comment below.

Thank you, @bathflashaward.bsky.social, for including my story, To whom belongs the land, in volume 9. Loved the title story, The constancy of woodpigeons, by @theliterarypig.bsky.social .

It's 3 years today since Shell was given the go-ahead to drill for new gas at Jackdaw field. It was later ruled unlawful, but self-styled "green" chancellor Rachel Reeves made clear she doesn't care 👇 Repost if you agree Govt should make a break with fossil fuel polluters to make a safer future

Horrendous.

Closing date - 31 July 2025. Here's what Philip has to say - "'Non-fiction'.  So what is that?  A non- thing?  Actually, it's the licence to explore your writing in wild and wonderful ways.' Please share, and enter.

@octopus.energy claim I've used £215.45 of gas in one boiling hot month, 10 times more than the £19.12 used in the previous (also boiling hot) month. Creep test no help.

Remember when all those people voted for Reform because they didn't want swift bricks in new houses? No, neither do I. But it seems our government has decided that helping birds is woke - so, you know what to do.

Like millions this morning, I have woken - not in the UK, but in #Reformland A far-right Trumpian state within a state In our part - Derbyshire - the new regime plans, on its first day, to shut all libraries and sack anyone working on nature, climate or diversity The fight-back starts here

Just 10 days left to get 100,000 signatures on this petition to ban fossil fuel ads and sponsorships – please sign and share govpetition.uk/700024

Absolutely chilling

Please sign up. This is vital I have been demanding and writing about this for years We have campaigns on every safety issue imaginable - except the biggest ever threat to civilisation

Yes!

1. Infuriatingly, here in the UK, the government still seems to believe that the only way of introducing trees is to plant them (see, for example, the current Land Use Framework consultation). News just in: trees can self-seed, which could be why they've survived for 360m years. 🧵

Excellent doc films #ClimateScam? #ClimateAnxiety and #PlanZ. Thank you for insights and inspiration.

Thank you, ALCS, for making my day - makes up for all the rejections.

The Dartington Forest Garden is threatened with destruction by landlords the Dartington Trust. It took >30 years to grow, and is a wonderful example of a radically different approach to food & fibre production. Please sign the petition, and share. www.agroforestry.co.uk/save-darting...

What a difference an apostrophe makes......

So happy about this! Save The Date ~ Leeds Lit Fest is back, 14-22 June. Please share. A collaboration between venues, organisers, writers & performers, we’ve once again got an action packed week of events taking place in venues across #Leeds Stay tuned for the programme announcement coming soon.

Can't wait! It's run by volunteers - I'm one of them - with no funding, and we do it out of sheer passion and the determination to platform and celebrate #literature in #Leeds. We have amazing support from our community of writers, readers and other lovely folk who quite simply keep us going.

“Weaponising family associations to discredit a child’s testimony is both unethical and dangerous.” Letter in full below.👇

Watched No Other Land, a devastating documentary of ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, with the bulldozers demolishing homes one by one. Heartbreaking. Can be watched online.

There's a common path in the development of authoritarian or totalitarian regimes, regardless of whether they are overseen by Catholic Inquisitors, Protestant enforcers, monarchists, fascists, Nazis, Stalinists, Maoists .... First they eliminate words. Then they eliminate people.
