If we’re going to have Chinese style autocracy in the US, I’d also like the renewable energy infrastructure, high speed rail, electric vehicles, investment in science, and good food.

📰The #CIJ_ICJ has spoken—fossil fuel production is no longer just bad policy, it’s a violation of international law. Read our NYT op-ed on why this ruling is a legal game-changer for climate justice. nyti.ms/3IKYNvs

Researching this week’s column, I felt that I understood at last just why, on so many issues – benefits, Gaza, environmental and planning laws, anti-protest laws, bank deregulation, fiscal rules etc - Labour is out-Torying the Tories. Why it has become so cruel, so destructive and so spineless. 🧵

One of the astonishing aspects of our times is that once-progressive parties are rushing us towards dystopia almost as fast as the far right is. This week's column is about what we might now face and how to contest it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

If you want to know how concerned to be about climate change, talk to a climate scientist. Very. If you want to know how concerned to be about the rise of fascism, talk to a historian. The ones I’ve spoken to are as concerned about our time as any other time in the last 100 years.
