We’re taling the message of THE PICKERS from Maastricht, the birthplace of the modern EU, right to its centre in Brussels. We’re joining the #BackToTheFuture March by @foeeurope.bsky.social & others, and showing the film along the way: campaign.thepickers.org/march #WeWantAFairPick #March4Rights

And if you can't make it to the @thepickers.org event tonight, you can still make your voice heard. Please consider signing our 10 demands for migrant workers' rights: campaign.thepickers.org/fairpick #WeWantAFairPick

Edinburgh pals, do you agree our food should be free of exploitation? Will I see you after the film THE PICKERS tonight? This week we've been launching European-wide, community-hosted events – and there's one at @themeltingpoted.bsky.social tonight! themeltingpot.spaces.nexudus.com/events/14155...

The Meet THE PICKERS Tour delivered fair oranges to @oxfam-de.bsky.social in Berlin! Oxfam volunteers across Germany and Spain are hosting screenings to explore this crucial topic. Will you join them? campaign.thepickers.org/host #WeWantAFAIRPICK

With impact campaigns, you can easily and happily stay in an activist bubble. The challenge always is to reach beyond that. For THE PICKERS, we drove our refrigerated van with fairly picked oranges to the global headquarters of ALDI Süd in Salzburg to show them the film and talk about our campaign.

We've now gathered more than 1,000 signatures for our demand to offer 10 essential guarantees to migrant workers that pick our daily fruit and veg. Would you sign this, too? campaign.thepickers.org/fairpick (also available in French, German and Italian) #WeWantAFairPick

#WeWantAFAIRPICK - Do we need a FAIR PICK certification label like Fair Trade or Organic? We've handed out fairly produced oranges to folks like @publiceye.ch and hosted screenings including the one @ethzurich.bsky.social as the Meet THE PICKERS Tour travelled across Switzerland 🍊

In Basel we met with our partners from Swiss Fair Trade hearing about their important work, including how we can safeguard and argue for legislation that effectively protects human rights. We had another packed screening in a temple of good food, the Markthalle Basel.

During our time in Geneva The Meet THE PICKERS Tour has met key people and organisations working to eliminate the exploitation of migrant workers. Watch today's update on the tour to follow the Meet THE PICKERS Campaign progress 👇🍊

We’re on the road in Switzerland with a refrigerated van – for a good cause! Follow @thepickers.org and join us on our journey around Europe over the next five weeks.

Are you enjoying your daily fruit and veg? Spare a thought for the people who pick them, often in miserable conditions. Our campaign @thepickers.org uses the documentary film THE PICKERS to draw attention to their plight. You can be among the first-ever people to sign our call for a FAIR PICK.

I've been on Bluesky for a while, but we've just set up a company account here, too. So those of you who know about Film & Campaign Ltd. could do me a huge favour and be the first-ever followers of @filmcampaign.org ...? Photo is the view from our office. Our work is all about building bridges...

It was a special day today – International Migrants Day – to announce that we'll be producing an impact campaign around the film THE PICKERS in 2025. The documentary follows migrant workers in Europe who pick our daily fruit and veg – under precarious conditions. www.filmcampaign.org/who_picks_th...

Forgot to share this on here – earlier this month we organised an event on behalf of @sonjahenrici.bsky.social at Dynamic Earth to celebrate some 300 events we've been facilitating for #TheOilMachine, and to remind politicians in #Holyrood of the urgency to act... FAO @ewangibbs.bsky.social

For folk in Germany: Today, an impact tour of German cinemas begins for 'Hinter guten Türen', a very personal doc by Julia Beerhold about the violence she experienced as a child. For Mindjazz Pictures, we've been facilitating partnerships with a number of key charities. www.hintergutentueren.de

Happy Leap Year Day, everyone! Earlier this month, a brilliant new employee leaped into our office: Tabita Knoblauch (centre) has joined us as bilingual impact producer for two German-based projects, a German-Swedish coproduction, and many more!

Sorry, still a bit slow with posting things on here… Earlier this month, after more than a year of getting the film #TheOilMachine out there, we finally presented clips from it to Members of Parliament in Westminster, and we discussed an urgent question: “Is the North Sea out of our control?”

Feeling a bit melancholic today. At Film & Campaign, we've produced the livestreams for 77 (out of 140+) briefings held by @independentsage.bsky.social. Today was the last one. It's already had some 13,000 views on that other platform that allows for livestreaming... twitter.com/IndependentS...

In Scottish wholesomeness, there's a guy who runs around Helensburgh each night making different grid patterns for his young son on Strava.

#TheOilMachine is touring Norway – starting today in Trømso! www.theoilmachine.org/norway

This was an important event providing an alternative #PeoplesAI perspective ahead of the UK government's own AI Safety Summit. It was so insightful to serve as the livestream producer of this one!

On the eve of our activities with #TheOilMachine in Norway, an official Climate Committee report for the Norwegian government says a complete halt in oil exploration is inevitable. English press release: files.nettsteder.regjeringen.no/wpuploads01/... Norwegian news: www.nrk.no/klima/skanck...

Norway has been a lot wiser than the UK in terms of using the wealth from oil and gas for the common good. Yet now the UK is leading the way in terms of the efforts to achieve a Just Transition for oil workers to the world of renewable energy. 1/

After a year of touring the UK, chuffed to be bringing #TheOilMachine to Norway in a brilliant collaboration with @naturvern.bsky.social and the #BroenTilFramtiden (Bridge to the Future) coalition. (If you think hashtags aren't working on Bluesky, try the Graysky client app.)

I stopped posting drawings to social media platforms a while back, but by way of introduction…

Underrated post 👇

Just testing, if I put a YouTube video here, will it play inline? www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vsso... This is James Marriott on the occasion of the North American tour of #TheOilMachine, a Scottish film on our entanglement in oil & gas. Been running the campaign for this film for more than a year now!

Hello! Anybody out there? With thanks to @trishgreenhalgh.bsky.social of @independentsage.bsky.social for the invite!
