Great petition here, regarding Farage having basically his own TV channel 38d.gs/leqi

The ECHR was Britain’s response to WW2 fascist regimes. With authoritarianism on the rise again, we’d be mad to give up the protections it provides. Tell your MP we won’t let that happen! actionstorm.org/petitions/pr...

With you, friend 💙

Reform UK are yelling “drill, baby, drill” 🙄 But fracking is reckless & won’t even cut bills. Time to end this nonsense. Tell Ed Miliband: BAN FRACKING permanently. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ke...

You’ll be too young to remember, but there was a time when you could wake up as many as three mornings in a row and not find the world had lost its fucking mind.

If you need a breather from all this bullshit, here's a photo of Earth. From Saturn. We're that slightly brighter star at centre right.

🚨🌱 The Chancellor is reviewing all public spending from scratch. Please join me in signing the @campaignforthearts.org petition to remind the UK Govt: the arts make our lives happier & our communities stronger. Now is the moment to invest in them. www.campaignforthearts.org/petitions/sp...

England faces drought as reservoir water levels dwindle. Rationing beckons. Population increased but no new reservoirs for 35 yrs; no desalination plants. Companies fleeced customers, borrowed to pay high dividends, low investment. People pay for privatisation follies. End the scam. Nationalise.

Private companies are polluting our rivers, hiking up bills, and failing to deliver. 82% of us want public ownership – let’s make it happen! Sign the open letter now & demand action! 👉 you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pu...

Surge in England coastlines, rivers and lakes with unsafe levels of E coli and intestinal enterococci due to sewage dumping. All done to boost profits, dividends, exec pay. Water industry controlled by companies with 1,135 criminal convictions. No director prosecuted. End the scam. Nationalise.

I don't know anyone who has put into words the preciousness and fragility of life on earth better than Carl Sagan. "The Earth is where we make our stand. It underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot." #EarthDay2025.

Some of the UK “Singapore” Brexit benefit stuff being trotted out is absurdly myopic. In the best traditions of Brexit, of course. The UK is trapped between two increasingly mercantilist trade blocs. It will keep paying a price that exceeds any arbitrage benefits. QED, the last eight years.

I just signed the petition to to demand the Government tax the super rich to rebuild our NHS, schools, and other public services. Will you sign too? you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...

I think it would be for the best if you people took the reins now. #InternationalWomensDay

This cause is close to my heart - please sign: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/ta...

Privatised water has failed. Just look at your water bills or the sewage pouring into our rivers. Steve Reed - include public ownership as an option in your independent commission on the water sector. Sign the petition weownit.org.uk/act-now/stev...

Unbelievable. Donald Trump has been invited to a state visit to the UK. We should not be rolling out the red carpet to celebrate this man. Agree? Add your name to the petition today: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/no...

The slow, slow road back to sanity…. we hope…. A functioning, cooperative relationship with our own continent, rather than an idiotic and dangerous ‘tilting’ towards a USA that absolutely cannot be trusted. (Letter in the Times)

With the world looking increasingly more dangerous and the US turning into a basket case, it’s time to have a long, hard look at who our ‘special relationship’ ought to be with. It’s not with those on the other side of the Atlantic, it’s with those on the other side of the Channel. #Rejoin, now.

Denying refugees citizenship simply on the grounds that they arrived here “illegally” on small boats *when there are no legal routes* for most to use takes cynicism to new heights. If Govt thinks such performative cruelty will see off Reform, they’re wrong - it’s more likely to strengthen it

Ofwat, Ofgem, totally pointless.

Five years since Brexit. Five years of economic and political damage. Five years of clarity what a mistake Brexit has been - for both sides. But one thing is clear: We miss you. And our door remains open. 🇪🇺❤️🇬🇧

England water companies use disinformation tactics similar to fossil fuel & tobacco industries with the widespread use of greenwashing to downplay the environmental harm they cause. They describe sewage overflows as “heavily diluted rainwater”. Can't trust them. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Anglian Water passed thousands of pollution tests at sewage plants that weren’t carried out. That's what happens when companies self certify. Sewage dumping under stated. Will get worse, regulators required to promote growth i.e. keep quiet, fewer fines. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

The right decision - and one that brings us into alignment with the EU. This bee-killing pesticide should never have been approved by the Conservative government, even for emergency use.

Patients are dying in NHS hospital corridors. The Conservatives closed 100+ emergency care services since 2010. Demand Wes Streeting reopen them to treat patients. Sign the petition. weownit.org.uk/act-now/emer...

There's the black hole Labour has been searching for...

‘Betraying Brexit’ Such a moronic accusation. What does it even mean? Having a functioning relationship with our own continent? Not being diplomatically incontinent? Finding ways to collaborate and improve opportunities, travel and trade? Great. Brexit betrayed us Very happy to betray it right back.

Yes, why should MP’s have any holidays. Oh sorry they mean everyone else.

Get a move on, Labour. This is urgent.

Way too much short-term planning in UK Government. It needs to be planning for the next 25+ years for all utilities, not planning to maximize annual shareholder dividends and CEO salaries.

Water profiteers get: £85bn in dividends. You get a 40% bill hike?!   We refuse to pay for their mess. Sign here: actionnetwork.org/petitions/te... 🧵

Private healthcare is lobbying Wes Streeting to sign a new PFI deal with them. Time is running out to ask Wes Streeting to say NO. Please add your name to this petition now. #NoNewPFI weownit.org.uk/act-now/tell...

My disappointment in Labour just grows and grows. This should have been the No1, we’re in charge statement from Labour. Fines, prosecutions, prison. Removal of licence, A staple of life treated as a profit opportunity. COME ON LABOUR IT’s AN OPEN GOAL, the ball is at your feet!!!!

“But UK rules mean products cannot be tested abroad; they have to be tested in the country in a certified lab of which there are now none.” I mean… ffs… Brexit never gets any less idiotic or ruinous, does it? www.theguardian.com/business/202...

And yet none of our politicians will take responsibility for this epic Brexit mess. They may blame others for it not being done right but no one says, “Actually. Brexit has turned out to be bollox. And we can’t keep hiding from it and lying about it. It’s not what a sane country would do.”

Spot on! This is something that this country should fear. It's also something that Farage, Tice and Co will simply not say they're working towards. But that IS their mission. We need to wake up to these people who wish to destroy the one political gift to ALL the nation, rich or poor, the NHS.

“This is beginning to really f*** me off." Feargal Sharkey is back testing rivers for toxins, and he’s far from impressed by what he’s found in the River Wylye.

Not sure the UK government realises that every time that youth mobility denial is used the EU takes the reset slightly less seriously, and more diplomacy is needed to stop attitudes hardening. And that this lowers chances of crafting a good negotiating package as current priority.
