This is terrifying. But reveals the agenda clearly. Remember he is linked to Black Rock and Palantir. Peter Thiel. 👇

Planners are working with water to bring wildlife back to the heart of our cities, towns & villages - creating a cooler, more pleasant urban environment along the way: share.google/hDpVMc4Hr6rD...

Campaigners argue, unless significant changes are made in how we regulate pollution at sea, ordinary people around the world will continue to bear the cost to their health + the cost of cleaning up, for some of the wealthiest industries on the planet. share.google/zqra4tOH7U67...

In India, campaigners say, causes of oil pollution, investigated by the coastguard, are not shared with the public. They're calling for fishers + residents to be consulted - instead of just having to clean up the mess left by rich corporations: mumbaimirror.indiatimes.com/mumbai/tarre...

. @oceanauk.bsky.social's Sea Slick report details how oil spills at sea harm wildlife from whales, to seabirds, otters to fish - causing damage including lesions in the lungs, harm to fertility, reduced ability to swim, fly, hunt or avoid being hunted: uk.oceana.org/reports/sea-...

Writing about oil + chemical pollution at sea for @oceanographicmag.bsky.social Luke McMillan sums this up: 'Shipping remains one of the most polluting industries, + among the least accountable...if something goes wrong, the burden falls on coastal communities'. share.google/zqra4tOH7U67...

Satellite data shows oil spills from shipping happen far more often than reported, revealing high-density 'slick belts' that correspond with shipping lanes. Most spills are not investigated. The cost of cleaning up oil pollution is often paid by coastal communities. share.google/zjELnkfcKMpZ...

David Miliband says the security and prosperity of the UK depends on an “institutionalised, deep and strong relationship with the rest of Europe” and the UK needs a reset of its relations with the EU at “a much higher dosage” than the govt is planning. #JoinEU www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

The crypto investor’s £5m gift to Reform’s leader coincided with the party’s new-found advocacy for digital assets – part of a pattern of significant political donations that also included £1m to the former Tory PM #TheNerve www.thenerve.news/p/investigat...

For the first time since the Brexit referendum, the idea of asking to return to the EU is on Britain’s political horizon. The journey would be long, tortuous—and worth it econ.st/42S9qDH #Brexit #Beturn #RejoinEU

There is also a package against vessels used by Russia to transport war cargo – weapons, ammunition, and equipment. We are preparing our new sanctions solutions. We are actively conducting diplomatic work with our partners in the European Union to bring Ukraine closer to EU membership.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: Today, we signed our new Ukrainian package of sanctions, which we must definitely extend to other jurisdictions. Sanctions against the occupiers – the Russian military, more than a hundred of them – who are involved in missile and drone strikes on our country, on our people.

Healey asks Farage if any of £5m gift may have come from Russia-linked profits

Yet again, we are hearing that water companies have exploited loopholes in our crumbling water system. We will continue to call out this scandal as the Government sits on its hands. It's time to bring in a powerful new regulator to punish water companies for this environmental vandalism.

He pulled out 5000 from Germany and put 5000 additional in Poland from what I read. I think we should sort our own shlt together and stop listening to these corrupt US politicians.

I've never seen such a horrible hypocrite like Rubio. According to him Trump didn't punish Europe by pulling back troops from EU countries. That's a lie. Rubio also says that the US is 'disappointed' at Europe's response to the war on Iran - a war the US started without consulting their allies.
