The masked criminals masquerading as law enforcement officers are getting even worse. Threatening to murder ambulance driver!

About to give evidence to the House of Lords sub-committee on the new proposed criminal offence of failing to disclose tax avoidance schemes. It’s something I called for. But I now think there’s a better way. More to follow.

This is what happens when you elect people who deny the facts of climate science and couldn't care less about the impacts of climate breakdown on their own citizens.

Post you from a different era

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

Reform are so grim and bad sports to boot. Tied elections get settled at the toss of a coin. Standard practice. No need for law suits. I’ve donated - please donate if you can. donatetothe.greenparty.org.uk/make-sure-we...

I don't think I need to comment www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I've yet to see this properly analysed from a psychological point of view. Obviously RFK is a nut, but there's also a broader pattern in the GOP ranks that seems deeply peculiar, of wanting positively to welcome the threat of disease and death. It feels like a collective psychosis.

It always amuses me when people inadvertently own themselves in using this phrase, given how the adage alludes to the way a single bad apple turns the whole crate bad. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

After a long pause, I've just done another England Covid & NHS update as we head into the autumn/winter season. TLDR: we're in a significant Covid wave now, the NHS is stretched, get boosted if you're eligible. christinapagel.substack.com/p/england-is...

🚨Urgent: Thames Water want permission from Ofwat to ILLEGALLY pollute rivers and seas until 2040. 🤮They want your bills to fill their pockets with gold, while they fill your rivers with sewage. ✍️Sign now. Tell Ofwat to say NO to Thames Water before Tuesday 21st October.

⚠️ Our Emergency Department (ED) remains under severe pressure. If your condition is not life or limb threatening you will be facing a long wait or will be redirected to another urgent treatment service who can help you.

👏👏👏👏 🇻🇪 Now let's make our posts about who won, rather than who didn't win.

Not all local elections are bad news

Funny how Russian bribery gets mentioned by @zackpolanski.bsky.social on #BBCQT & Zia Yusuf gets very upset! Good, about time someone stood up to Reform. Fair play Zack as the panel seemed rattled by you.

🚨 It's official! Politicians can stop making plans for Nigel. 🗳️ Polling shows that even Reform voters back renewable energy. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home... ✅ Tell Labour to stop backpeddling put climate first to win your vote: VoteClimate.uk/register

Just extraordinary to witness this nature-hating government sabotaging Labour’s own legacy. And for absolutely no reason: nature protection isn’t blocking development - it’s a necessary prerequisite for it (& for everything else, come to that…)

"Effectively, this policy will bar trans people from leaving their homes"

🌍 | Highest ever Green polling (15%).

Sarah Smith #r4today says Trump gave no details about (didn’t know or care) what happens next with the Gaza/Israel peace deal but she can confirm that Trump will be “furious” on Friday if he isn’t awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. Wow. Priorities. Inspirational.

News of a ceasefire deal in Gaza brings real hope. The UK and our allies must do all we can to get the hostages home, get aid in to starving people, and finally end this horrific violence. This must be the first step towards a two-state solution and a lasting peace.

Bizarrely she popped up on the main bbc tv bulletin. She said she was fine!

Unbelievable that TikTok & Insta are amplifying 1970s ‘jokes’ about N*****s & P***s to a whole new generation. Bernard Manning, of all people, is back in fashion…

Whoops! Seems the ONS has overestimated govt borrowing by £3bn. Rare bit of good news for Rachel Reeves. Story by @guardianheather.bsky.social www.theguardian.com/business/202...

A cameraman at the #ToryConference just did an excellently-timed zoom onto Chris Philp. #kemi #badenoch

I'm not an economist but seems worrying that the whole US economy is seven companies in a trenchcoat, passing the same $20 up and down

Just as we are beginning to understand the biochemical basis of this horrendous condition, the government appoints the man perhaps most responsible for the mischaracterisation of ME/CFS – Simon Wesseley - to its *overdiagnosis* commission. www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/news/controv...

Lords Heseltine & Kinnock seem more alive to these self-evident truths than most members of the Commons. Similarly, I find thinkers with direct lived experience of far right dictatorship, Greeks of a certain age for example, crystal clear about what’s happening now.

BREAKING: Devon and Cornwall Police did NOT arrest protestors today for signs which say "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action" In sharp contrast, Met police are mass arresting protestors in Trafalgar Square for holding the same signs, despite claiming limited resources.

See that small, moving splotch? That's 3I/ATLAS, a comet that formed in a different star system, photographed from Mars orbit by the ESA Exomars Trace Gas Orbiter. A comet from a DIFFERENT SOLAR SYSTEM photographed by a ROBOT ORBITING MARS last Friday

The wonderful Platform Tavern dates back to at least 1871 but unfortunately its future is uncertain. The building incorporates some of the southern stretch of Southampton’s medieval walls. The inquest into the death of my great x4 grandfather was held here in 1888. 1/7

We have an independent judiciary in this country. Robert Jenrick wants puppet judges. The Conservative Party once believed in the rule of law and our shared British values - no longer.

Finally!!! The real scandal of the asylum hotels. Why, instead of shining the light on these parasites, months were spent on demonising vulnerable people at their mercy? www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

😡 The Government wants to ban repeated protests & jail those who defy them. Stand up for our democratic right to protest - sign the petition now! you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/do...
