#Caturday my cat has decided to file herself away. My husband was sorting out the car insurance, so I suppose she's only one letter out.

What if one of the most powerful climate solutions isn’t technology—but conversation? This week in Talking Climate, we're talking about hairdressers inspiring climate convos, war supercharging emissions, and more positive content creators to follow. Read on!

Bless this Pope for loudly condemning the fascists.

Sakura in Kyiv has started to bloom. I captured it today. News headlines don’t notice the beauty. I do.

NATO is an alliance of autonomous states Article 5 means others will come to the assistance of a state that has been attacked This has nothing to do with an attack on Iran launched by Israel and the USA I don't know why I'm bothering to say this because fact are irrelevant in the White House

Are you interested in #contemplative #prayer ? In my book "All That Is Made" you will find out what it is, why it helps those of us who feel small, sick or confined, and why, like #JulianofNorwich I find it deeply comforting. #spoonies #SevereME #chronicillness #ME #faith see pinned post

The UK doesn't use oil to generate power, so no, Nigel, new drilling wouldn't reduce energy bills (it would make your mates very rich though...) This and 8 other North Sea oil and gas myths busted by Carbon Brief. www.carbonbrief.org/factcheck-ni...

My husband, my son and my cat. However they make me want to pull my hair out too! 🙊 🤪

🤦‍♀️The government says PFI was a 'costly mistake'. They promise a new form of public private partnership in their 10-year plan for the NHS. 🤐They just haven't told us what it is yet. 🧐Yet here we are...asset manager Blackrock getting their hands on another piece of our NHS.

A treat to meet Jill Scott and talk about why we must protect playing fields and green spaces from predatory development. Young people should not be denied community spaces to play sports, spend time with their friends and enjoy all the benefits that come with being outdoors!

Reform offered hate. We offered hope. Hope won. The police say his accusations of cheating are baseless. Farage is a bad loser.

These people have a funny way of saying "Environmentalists have been proved right yet again."

Denmark is part of something bigger. Across countries, support for taxing the super rich is growing — despite intense efforts to stop it. The demand is there. The momentum is real. Now it’s a question of political will.

🚨BREAKING: Wes Streeting takes NEW £55,000 donation from private healthcare. Only one group stands to benefit from a weaker NHS: ❌NOT patients, ❌NOT staff Yes, private healthcare - the group that has given Wes Streeting 60% of his donations. He must return these donations. vist.ly/4w7u5

Happy Birthday to Sister Rosetta Tharpe, and a massive thank you to her for inventing rock and roll She was born on March 20th, 1915

I was there and voted against the invasion of Iraq. Why does the media continue to give the co-perpetrator of this crime, Blair, any space for his support of Trump’s crazy invasions? I long for the day when both are tried for crimes against humanity- Netanyahu too!

It’s a no brainier which makes it even more strange that Reform don’t get it. Unless of course it’s got something to do with donations from, and shares in, the oil and gas industry.

Everything we need to do to stop climate breakdown, we also need to do for national security. Energy saving, more renewables, more electricity storage and interconnectors, electrification of transport, heating, cooking and industrial processes, plant-based diets. We win on all fronts.

It’s easy to feel helpless when the news is heavy. The reality of our healthcare system can be heartbreaking, but staying silent isn't the answer. We believe every patient deserves dignity and every staff member deserves support. Take 30 seconds to send our letter: bit.ly/end-corridor...

🚨 NHS England is rolling out Palantir software for our health records - handing huge power to a US firm with a track record in surveillance, military technology and human rights abuses. Email your local Trust and say NO to Palantir in the NHS: notopalantir.goodlawproject.org/email-to-tar...

GB News has turned into the Reform channel. After a New World investigation found hundreds of breaches of the rules on accuracy and impartiality, Ofcom has failed to do its job and act. We've seen what Fox News has done to politics in the US. We can't let it happen here.

Social media gets a lot of criticism, but for #disabled people? It can be genuinely life-changing. This post explores the real, meaningful ways social media creates connection, community, and access for people with #disabilities — and it's worth a read. buff.ly/c2EDxAQ

I've had 4 emails today for 'Antonio' about creating artwork for Antonio's latest release. It looks like someone has put the wrong email address! So if you know Antonio with an email address similar to stickman communications - please let him know he's getting lots of enquiries, but to my email.

Sorry been quiet for ages due to illness. The coverage thing is still an issue. Greens might have had a boost but I wonder if there’s an agenda to shape things as far right v far left, setting greens up as geeky & far left (which they’re not). Still the Libs get NO regular coverage despite 72 MPs

Spoiler: the full story is a LONG way from what's described in the headline

Hope isn’t something we wait for: it's something we create. This week's Talking Climate news illustrates why it matters so much, and how innovation and courage can help!

ANALYSIS: Badenoch and Farage might not want to admit it, but Conservative and Reform plans to scrap net zero whilst boosting the North Sea would actually make the UK even more reliant on gas imports 🤔 www.carbonbrief.org/...
