I don’t know what to say anymore other than to remind those in power that refugees are human beings with equal rights who, along with their children, deserve a safe, stable & integrated life in their communities and that what they’re breaking now with this performative cruelty can’t be fixed later.

"Climate change is a threat to ecosystem and human health, but it is also fundamentally a social justice issue. We are disproportionately harming the vulnerable and marginalized—those least responsible for the crisis." academic.oup.com/bioscience/a...

Study of all-electric properties in Birmingham, with heat pumps and solar, shows they use less energy at peak times than expected, reducing stress on the grid “We’re finding all those reasons not to go ahead with a heat pump are slowly but surely falling away” www.theguardian.com/environment/...

What a shocking waste of opportunity this government has proved to be. It has squandered its time and attention on ridiculous fiscal rules, persecuting refugees and trashing ecosystems in the name of growth, while failing to deliver what we so desperately want. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Might it have been an idea for UK Labour to wait a few days for Danish local election results before adopting an even more extreme version of their migration policy? If Copenhagen is anything to go by, London could see a major surge by Greens. People chose to live in diverse cities for a reason

#LongCovid: Government failure to recognise disease as occupational is “unconscionable,” say unions BMJ 2025; 391 doi: doi.org/10.1136/bmj.... (Published 14 November 2025)

We are of course, unprepared and what's worse, we have created a new narrative of denial and dishonesty in public health.

#PublicHealth measures like ventilation and air filtration are a matter of urgency "Chances that disease X will be an influenza virus are probably greater than for any other known pathogen group" time.com/7324877/flu-...

I think it should be a bigger deal that before Trump made him a life-tenured appeals court judge, Emil Bove was at DOJ taking the position that the White House should do war crimes

Repeated infections are causing long-term immune disruption — and the signs are already showing up across populations. We break down the evidence, the context, and the urgent need for prevention in our latest piece. Read the full article here: whn.global/scientific/t... #LongCOVID #COVID19 #COVID

Hilarious that they called their pandemic preparedness operation "Exercise Pegasus" Oh, so it hasn't entirely escaped your attention then that #CovidIsAirborne? & #BirdFlu too?

Thanks for raising this @nataliegreenpeer.bsky.social 💚 Labour still don't have policy in place to stop the spread of airborne infectious diseases including #Flu & #Covid @greensagainstcovid.bsky.social #MakeHopeNormalAgain #MakeCaringNormalAgain

The leader of a theocratic, absolute-monarchy, human-rights-abusing state that murdered and dismembered an American journalist is welcomed by the President of the United States with a pat on the back because the president thinks it will make him rich.

A headline that would have been unthinkable a few months ago

Bill to release the Epstein files passes the House 427 to 1

After a bird flu outbreak tore through Midwestern barns, killing millions of chickens and spiking egg prices, the federal government didn’t investigate if the virus was airborne. So ProPublica did. Absolutely terrifying reporting from @natlash.bsky.social: www.propublica.org/article/bird...

After we’re done making America great again, could we make men be ashamed of disgusting behavior before they get caught?

"The RCN said it received an average of six calls a day from members regarding staffing levels in their place of work, with many citing burnout, panic attacks and nightmares due to their working conditions." No wonder so many lifelong Labour supporters are defecting to the Greens! 💚

I'm wondering if @canadiangreens.bsky.social now have policy on this like @greenparty.org.uk? 💚 The response from the trade unions & Labour has been disappointing 😥 #WorkersRights

Can't wait to see how Lady Hallett addresses the great betrayal of healthcare workers! Module 2 report due out on Thursday 👀 @greensagainstcovid.bsky.social

Pass the phone… to the 40,000 Young Greens! 📲 💚 We now have the largest youth and student movement in UK politics - AND the biggest Young Greens group in Europe 🥳 This is the generation that’s done waiting. Join us. ⤵️

I don't hold out much hope of my MP attending. She's too busy stirring up hate to care about constituents with #ME & #LongCovid. But I'm hopeful @greenparty.org.uk will be there! 💚 @carladenyer.bsky.social @adrianramsay.bsky.social @elliechowns.bsky.social @sianberry.bsky.social

Today we've got a blog from Yanto Evans, focused on Long Covid in Wales and why the Welsh government should prioritise the unfolding health crisis. His guest blog is also available in Welsh translation. Link in next post 👇

Yma o hyd #StillHere #LongCovid 🫂💚

The stupidity of Farage’s latest ‘plan’ is staggering. Claiming they’d save British taxpayers money by ripping up international commitments and starting a trade war with Europe is the puerile foot-stamp of a party that uses prejudice as policy. Ruinous nonsense. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

“We are scapegoating asylum seekers for the failures & political divisions caused by successive governments in the last 15 years – the failures of successive governments to address wealth inequality, funding for education, the cost of living & primary healthcare & infrastructure."

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. There’s no vote required if he wants to release them! The only reason the house was voting was because he refused. This is an obviously cynical ploy and major news outlets are running whole pieces without pointing this out. He could release them tonight.

Looks like winter pressures will be horrendous again this year. Maybe our Labour Government will get around to updating their policy, to stop the spread of airborne infectious diseases in hospitals & schools? Everyone knows the current policy is based on the discredited droplet-spread model.

'He's toxic, misogynistic and racist'

Chris’s whole post is amazing, including this, from E.B. White:

ffs what is labour doing here? when will they learn they can’t win (and shouldn’t win) on the right’s terms?

Take it from an American appeasement is NOT the way.

The government won’t achieve ‘decency’ over ‘division’ by trying to be Reform Lite and please remember this - the ECHR is much more than a treaty. It’s a quiet promise - a shield against abuse of power, a lifeline for the vulnerable, a declaration of who we are as a nation

Trying to find a meaningful difference between Labour leadership and the average Republican in Congress. Not coming up with much. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Dark forces are stirring up anger in this country, and seeking to turn that anger into hate. Labour are desperate to appease them Cruelty is never a legitimate policy goal.

This needs to stop. People fleeing persecution have a right to asylum. They have a right to a place of safety where they won't be robbed, where they can work, recover from trauma & rebuild their lives. We need to make caring normal again

Christiane Amanpour, "Antisemitism is a major problem. How do you navigate that?" Zack Polanski, "I think it is a powerful message to have a Jewish leader and a Muslim deputy leader" "Antisemitism and Islamophobia are two sides of the same coin" "And the best response to hatred is solidarity"

People with lived experience of oppression who dream of a better world inspire others with shared stories that carry these ideas into our hearts, transforming our individual character & collective identity.

The normalisation, nay, emboldenment of the far right by the Labour government continues at pace

It’s almost like Labour wants the Greens to overtake them.

The question is not "do we hold these truths to be self-evident?" but "do we the people choose to constitute ourselves as a society that operates as if everyone has rights?" The alternative is a Hobbesian State of Nature in which #Epstein 's rich, powerful friends get to abuse kids with impunity.

The Labour Government reeling off the same far-right talking points on immigration. And look who is celebrating. The far-right. There is a political alternative that won’t ever scapegoat those fleeing war, persecution and torture join.greenparty.org.uk

What are we going to do about #LongCovid? Doctors literally have no idea. Your child could be disabled for life by their next infection. Or we could campaign for clean air in schools, so they don't get infected several times a year.

Abandoning public health protections & failing to mitigate airborne spread was a reckless political gamble, based on the overconfident, unsound "Great Barrington Declaration." Our kids are now paying the price. ✅ Make caring normal again. 💚 ✅ Kids deserve #CleanAir 🌬 🪟

Fantastic to be out with new members and Cheshire West and Chester Young Greens knocking on doors, speaking to residents and solving issues. #DrawTheLine #makehopenormalagain #VoteGreen Join.greenparty.org.uk

"What if instead of listing reasons it’s impossible to confront or deal with this problem, we set about trying to solve it, because we are, after all, the adults in the room?" We have the tools to stop the spread of airborne infectious diseases in schools. It's time to make caring normal again.

In order to implement the "Sweden Plan" most places will need: To stamp out empathy To demonise & scapegoat vulnerable people To frame "freedom" as a Hobbesian state of nature entirely without governance for the common good This is what happens when the far-right are allowed to dominate.

MAGA’s ongoing war on academic freedom, reflected in headlines from the last 24 hours.

I’m no political strategist but it seems to me that there’s a pretty clear line connecting those vaunted “kitchen table issues” w lawlessness & corruption. i.e., “they grab tax dollars from hard working Americans not to improve our lives, but to enrich cronies and reward lawlessness”

Good thing the CDC is at the top of its game and has not been decimated by an administration of nincompoops.
