What a bunch of shady creepers.

A reminder that London is far safer than many major cities, that crime is falling and that racists hate both these truths because they undermine their vicious little divisive narrative. Multiculturalism works. London works. And those who hate both things hate themselves most of all.

there were plans announced today to sequester carbon under the North Sea the most efficient sequestering is leaving fossil fuels where they are. when they're in the ground they ARE carbon sequestering

Patrick, the climate problems with this plan go beyond FF production continuing with tiebacks. As part of the proposed transition off FF production, the plan increases FF consumption in UK by having fossil based CCS as a key transition pathway Think #Peterhead Read more 👉 bsky.app/profile/dran...

When I was a young teenager, I remember getting a radio cassette recorder that had six Short Wave radio bands. I used to listen to all sorts of English speaking international radio. I also loved the BBC and their remit to inform, educate and entertain. So, when I joined Twitter in 2016... 1/2

On the twentieth anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, those who are devalued, displaced, and disinvested already know what the future on an uninsurable earth looks like for the beautiful and the damned. @katemac.bsky.social & I @phenomenalworld.bsky.social: www.phenomenalworld.org/analysis/ins...

there are *incredibly negative* health effects associated w/ noise annoyance, dementia, cardiac issues, death and yet we do NOT measure noise pollution in the US - don't do anything to mitigate it either in fact it's the opposite: we focus density on the loudest roads bsky.app/profile/holz...

i've been thinking about passivhaus retrofits and mitigating sound pollution after visiting @475supply.bsky.social's HQ in brooklyn 2 weeks ago (mass timber, passivhaus retrofit) and how quiet it was despite being next to an arterial. 475.supply/blogs/case-s...

Finland has the lowest homeless rate in Europe. They designed apartment blocks for the homeless in which rent automatically adjusts to income, with mental-health support, job assistance & social workers on site. Stable housing creates a foundation for employment, recovery & long-term independence.

Creeps like RFK Jr. are among the most dangerous people. With little fanfare & notice, they work under the radar to help spread misinformation and disease, causing unnecessary suffering and death. #ProudBlue

I feel like one of the most underrated explanations for what's happening right now in global politics is that almost everyone has lost their minds.

😂 It's what I've bought , nowt.

“Ah, just one more thing, sir. You’re blowing up those boats, saying they’re filled with drugs headed for the US. But then you go and pardon the guy who brought in 400 tons of cocaine. That’s billions of doses. Help me understand that.”

Fairly certain Kemi Badenoch is hoping that nobody has noticed this. Pretty brazen...

Daniel, Oliver Postgate's son, had been battling cancer and depression, sadly took his own life. But for Wales Online and Reach he's a source of clicks and revenue... It really sickens me.

A lot of people are angry and I am too. It is down to each one of us, the trade union movement, politicians, activists, and campaigners to offer a different and better vision. A vision that puts hope before hate and that puts people before corporate greed. Join us today @scottishtuc.bsky.social

There is dismay that another opportunity to tackle the cost of housing crisis has been missed as the latest Labour budget fails to provide clarity to the social housing sector on many key policy areas.

"Do you remember the figure that was on the side of the Brexit Bus? Did that make you angry> The same amount of money is added to Billionaire's wealth every 10 days according to a recent report produced by Oxfam. We really do need to tax them properly." via David Williams

Around 26,000 of the neediest people in County Durham will have to start paying council tax next year as the county council scraps 100% rebates for people of working age. About 2,400 others who already pay some council tax will lose part of their rebate.

Rachel Reeves was frustrated that a Sussex development was delayed by “… some snails … a protected species or something, that are microscopic; you can’t even see them…” The snail in question is one of Britain’s rarest and most endangered freshwater species, the lesser whirlpool ramshorn.

An MP in Zimbabwe has called for the repeal of the country's "backwards" 1977 abortion law. He argued that safe abortion should be available to a wider range of Zimbabwean women, as it is currently restricted to a privileged few. Each year, 60,000 women die due to unsafe abortion.

Rachel Reeves says this Labour Governments decisions are "necessary." Why is it always necessary to hit the living standards of the 99%? When are we going to make the necessary decisions about extreme wealth?

Kate from Kharkiv shared this photo of an apartment building where Russians murdered 33 people with one strike, including 6 children. It happened in Ternopil. That is a city in Ukraine.

www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025... Yes it is. Yes it should.

If 2 children are being killed every day, it’s not a ceasefire, it’s a slow-motion massacre. news.un.org/en/story/202...

Brexit is the reason today’s Budget squeezes families, yet the government is still shuffling towards solutions that demand real urgency. We need far bolder steps back towards the single market if we want future budgets that lift people up rather than drain them.

This is the way. 😎

Robbie Gibb said if he doesn't get his way, he'll blow the BBC up. It's ridiculous that a man like that has a spot on the BBC's board. Our public broadcaster MUST be independent. Agree? Sign to get Gibb sacked:

This weekend, I joined @grownyc.bsky.social, Throggs Neck Community Alliance, and volunteers for a food distribution in Throggs Neck. We distributed 1,500 pounds of fresh produce, halal turkeys, and chicken to over 350 community members ahead of Thanksgiving. (1/2)

This sentence was taken out of a lecture they commissioned, reviewed through the full editorial process, and recorded four weeks ago in front of 500 people in the BBC Radio Theatre. I was told the decision came from the highest levels within the BBC. /2
