At Climate Week just about everything is labeled “regenerative,” no matter who is behind it or what climate intensive product they’re promoting. The beef industry is repping their products - food with the top climate footprint, loudly offering false solutions. insideclimatenews.org/news/2209202...

This is what it looks like when you put public health policy into the hands of deranged Facebook boomers with the scientific literacy of incontinent orangutans and brains half eaten by worms. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Instead of uncritically parroting Gatwick's own press releases, the Chancellor might try touching back down to Earth and acknowledging that this is an act of environmental vandalism wildly disproportionate to any spurious economic benefit it may bring. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

This Labour Government once again choosing to do the work of their vested interests - and not working for people or the planet. My article today in @the-independent.com on Gatwick Expansion. 👇🏼 www.independent.co.uk/voices/gatwi...

This is a criminal abdication of responsibility to the future of humanity. We should be removing subsidies for aviation fuel and taxing frequent flyers to reduce demand, not inducing more. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

This is comparable to when Tasmania gave thylacines legal protection, after decades of government sponsored persecution had already rendered them functionally extinct. The UK government is STILL providing both hard and soft military support to Israel's genocide. This is pure virtue-signalling.

Oak trees and gall wasps have a marvellous secret symbiotic relationship | Mick Channon

If a building contractor dumped 100,000t a year of excavated earth into a nature reserve, it'd be a huge scandal and people would be prosecuted. But when Brighton Marina dumps sediment in a Marine Conservation Zone, almost nobody bats an eyelid. Luckily @sussexwildlife.bsky.social is on the case.

Good to see. www.theargus.co.uk/news/2548010...

"My door is always open for conversations with Jeremy and Zarah, two people committed to making our country fairer who I really respect. All my energy is focused on what I can do towards that end, and that’s to keep growing @greenparty.org.uk" www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

He's a talentless, robot politician with the charisma of a slime mould. His only asset for the government is a willingness to go on TV and twist himself into pretzels shamelessly defending the indefensible.

'What, you may therefore ask, is the point of such Marine Protected Areas, if such activities can be greenlit with such little regulation? Good question.' My latest article. sussexbylines.co.uk/news/environ...

All new parties are inevitably going to have teething problems, but it's not necessary for such a chaotic outfit to be at the helm of the British Left. Join @greenparty.org.uk.

More scrutiny needs to take place before Premier Marina’s licence is renewed | Ross McNally

Israel has committed genocide in Gaza, says UN inquiry

This image may best encapsulate the vile and revolting scenes in London today. Racist, lager fueled knuckledraggers trying to mark their territory like dogs. But they don't represent or understand this country any more than their Nazi fanboy Elon – no matter how many England flags they wave.

Nationalise Southern Water and close this legal loophole.

This is how you deal with fascist coup attempts, Merrick Garland. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Shut the fuck up with your ridiculous beratements, @london.gov.uk. Everybody can plainly see that you're hiding behind flimsy procedural decorum to avoid criticising the Labour government for hosting a genocidal maniac.

Since when does the most senior legal advisor in the country stand in the way of international law in order to protect foreign war criminals?

That's what's so pathetic about the flag-shagging, 'we won the war!' boomer generation. Not only have they themselves never been anywhere near a war, but they're espousing precisely the kind of politics that their fathers and grandfathers fought to defeat.

It looks like Bell Ribeiro-Addy drew the short straw. I'm afraid that the Labour Party is beyond saving. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

deforestation *caused primarily by cows and soy for factory farmed animals* reduce rainfall in the amazon. this is why meat is not just a moral issue but a political-ecological issue that reshapes out climate and environment and biodiversity in profound and irreversible ways.

If you're not going to ban one of the most ecologically destructive practices on Earth from Marine Protected Areas, then in exactly what sense are they supposed to be protected? This is like having nature reserves on land that allow artillery shelling. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

This is exactly the kind of despicable scaremongering that Aseem Malhotra has made his modus operandi. Insinuations, hearsay, anti-vaxx, non-evidence-based, lurid, self-enriching, anti-scientific claptrap. Of course Reform UK lapped it up. 1/4

'Perhaps the degeneration of his critical thinking and embrace of misinformation are only to be expected from a man who reportedly had part of his brain eaten by a parasitic worm; it’s a better excuse than most anti-vaxxers have.' From last November: www.thelondoneconomic.com/politics/rob...

For all the money that Quentin Letts' parents spent on his education, the best he can come up with for a national newspaper column is to attack Zack's teeth – and with all the rhetorical skill of a 6-year-old. Followed by some lazy homophobic dog-whistles. Boarding schools churn out such weirdos.

You mean the same Mitch McConnell who has voted in line with Trump 94% of the time, and refused to support his conviction over the January 6th riot? That Mitch McConnell can rot in hell. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

As per usual with this brain-dead imbecile, unless he's talking about stand-up comedy, televised assault or impersonating Mr. Potato Head, he hasn't a fucking clue what he's talking about.

With Zack Polanski's sweeping victory in the #GreenParty #leadership election, the question that @rossmcnally.bsky.social asked in his May article is more stark than ever :

Congratulations on a resounding victory @zackpolanski.bsky.social. I look forward to seeing @greenparty.org.uk seizing control of the agenda and growing its electoral relevance.

Clearly, the issue of autonomy for pregnant people is more complicated, but at what point should we just say that if you don't let your child get standard vaccinations, they will be taken into care?

If you told Badenoch that dropping anthrax on cities would upset vegans, she'd be all for it. What a sad, puerile cartoon goofball. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

I don't want to be too harsh here, because there's clearly some emotional underdevelopment in people who feel the need to take their dogs to the cinema. But get a grip. Your dog isn't interested in films. Surely you can make it through a couple of hours apart from your barking, shitting Teddy bear.

so good from @heycappello.bsky.social

If you're a Green Party member and haven't voted for Zack yet, hurry up.

Safety and space at risk as SUVs reach 30% of car market in English cities, researchers warn

This week's column. The details will make you gasp and rage. This massive desecration of nature is almost unbelievable, but it is happening in the UK right now. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is almost as ridiculous as making him a Middle East peace envoy. I suppose Blair smelled the despotism and corruption coming from the White House and just had to get over there, cap in hand, shoving starving Palestinian babies aside to clear his path towards Trump's feet.

Here's how the real two-tier Britain works: 1. Whatever Nigel Farage says, however stupid, is looped and discussed by the media, while left-wing voices are treated as noises off. 2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧵

It's that time of year when social wasps are making their presence conspicuous, and when people are whinging about them. Here's why wasps should be celebrated, not maligned. www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/environ...

Do check out Rudi's articles if you're interested in the punk scene in and around Brighton/Sussex.

When Jeremy Corbyn was elected leader of the Labour Party almost exactly 10 years ago, the first thing he did was attend a rally in support of refugees. During his leadership, Labour helped to combat racism and refocused attention towards the real problems facing society. 🧵

Yes you would Nick – you went into coalition with David Cameron and George Osborne. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

North Korea has a 'secret' military base within its own sovereign territory, and US think tanks get hysterical. Meanwhile, how many US military bases are there on the Korean peninsula and Japan? Around 10? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

Yes, Sudan should be covered more in western media. But perhaps there's a reason why we should be paying more attention to Gaza, like for instance the fact that we're still sending weapons and sharing intelligence with Israel.

It's a day ending in 'y,' so @telegraphnews.bsky.social is spraying out ignorant, anti-environmental bullshit. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/08...

This is all well and good, but it seems unnecessary given that golden eagles are likely to recolonise England naturally from southern Scotland within the next decade. It would be better to reintroduce them to Wales, where there's little prospect of natural recolonisation anytime soon.
