I took paracetamol in both my pregnancies for minor joint troubles. I had a better pregnancy experience because I wasn't in pain. Neither of my kids is autistic. The high-quality studies and reviews confirm there is NO evidence that paracetamol taken by the mother causes autism in the child. 🧪

We want the media and politicians to recognise that there is a large number of women who are supportive of the trans+ community. We call on them to report truthfully about the sources of violence against women and to address the systems that perpetuate harm. notinourname.org.uk/petition/not...

China has shown how economic growth can be stimulated through strong climate action, which are worth billions in investment and have reaped bumper profits, by turning to clean energy and a green transformation. Low carbon economy is good for all parts of society www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Barristers have a long, honourable tradition of working for free for those who cannot afford a lawyer. People held in immigration detention do not get legal aid for their bail hearings. Many cannot afford a lawyer. @biddetention.bsky.social helps them for free. www.telegraph.co.uk/gift/bc42d2e...

Disabled people are overwhelmingly locked out of work because workplaces aren't accessible. Imagine how many lives would improve if employers were educated & held to account. THIS is the problem that needs addressing. ☝️ #Disability

We don’t need the rich. They destroy the planet with their domination of flying. Only 1% of the world’s population responsible for 50% of aviation No more airport expansions and ban private jets. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

None other than East Wilts MP, Danny Kruger, who recently defected to Reform, features in this article. We need to be aware, vigilant and denounce these threats to all our human rights. We want policies not deity in our Parliament.

Having oil reserves does not bring cheaper prices or improvements to ordinary people. “The wealth generated by fossil fuels remains concentrated among a few” Big oil companies destroy the planet and give nothing back to communities. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

This is the problem in UK, elites, not immigration. For a fairer country, a more equal society we need to level “the playing field, where privilege is no longer a passport to power.” www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take it anymore. So I wrote a blog about ten things you can do *right now* to help defeat Farage, Musk, and rightwing populism. From scrutinising Reform councillors to demanding the UK Govt leave X - get involved: guyshrubsole.substack.com/p/ten-things...

Paint is not infrastructure and does not protect those choosing to cycle-Wiltshire Council take note. @cycledevizes.bsky.social

Fossil-fueled warming once again killed tens of thousands in Europe this summer. Scientists the rising heat and death tolls show the limits of adaptation.

Mandelson was architect of 2nd State visit for Trump. That visit should not happen. It is sickening to confer special UK honour on Mandelson's fellow Epstein acolyte who is a dangerous autocrat, banning books, militarising police & destroying democratic freedoms.

Plea for red listed swifts. Swift bricks. Such a small thing and small cost. Can we get there please? 🪶🧱💚

Projections of U.S. President Donald Trump, Britain's Prince Andrew and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were put on display against the walls of Windsor Castle while Trump was in Britain for a state visit.

Here’s a man who knows his stuff and he’s chair of the CCC.👏🏼 “The evidence is very strong that we can do net zero and it will be to the significant benefit of the economy, both macroeconomically and microeconomically,” Read article for his sensible advice. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Just 24 arrests for all that drunken, antisocial, threatening and terrorising behaviour. Yet the police managed hundreds when is pensioners and those with disabilities calmly sitting holding cardboard. That’s the double standard policing. Which was more a threat? www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

An appalling state of affairs when the rivers in our National Parks are polluted with sewage and chemicals. These should be the most protected natural areas in the country. You can’t run water/sewage for profit, it’s a public good and needs to publicly owned. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Reform- Elites standing up for billionaires and big oil. Certainly not looking out for the working class.

Climate crisis hitting Swansea courtesy of Big Oil. What’s the adaptation for this then? How many people will be late for work, impacting on the economy? How many homes flooded putting insurance up? We can’t afford climate change. #JustStopOil Polluter pays Tax big oil www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

🗣"There are people who stood with me and put the fires out after the Harehills riots - that's patriotism, that's love for your community." 🟩 Green Party Deputy Leader and Leeds councillor @mothinali.bsky.social on patriotism and British values @zackpolanski.bsky.social @rachelmillward.bsky.social

What Ben said. All MPs need to stand together against this incitement to violence from a foreign national. Make a stand and start with not using X.

Myth busting. Most migrants are students who pay fees. Then work visas & dependants who work and pay taxes. Less than 5% claim asylum and are stopped from working. Most don’t use schools and pay for NHS. So a net gain for the economy. Get real about migration. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Carers are the backbone of this country. They step in where the state fails in providing social care. Yes they should be compensated, debts cancelled and any criminal convictions quashed. This is a scandal that needs to be rectified now. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

We cannot afford the selfishness of billionaires who through their privileged and opulent lifestyles are making life difficult for everyone else. I am fed up with rich foreigners coming here and exploiting the system. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Well this is really going to help! Why can’t the government say that we need immigration to run our prisons our NHS and care homes. We are not going to function as a civil society if we keep being horrible to those who uprooted their lives to come and work here. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

This is horrendous. A young Sikh woman has been attacked, at 8.30am in a public place by racists. Enough of this excusing raising flags as patriotic and call it out for what it is- marking territory and racist. It’s emboldening the far right. It must be stopped. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Carbon capture an excuse to allow big oil to carry on business as usual with promise of removing carbon. It does not work at scale. An expensive white elephant. Better to spend £30bn on natural carbon capture such as rewetting peat lands & planting forests. www.theguardian.com/news/2025/se...

Great to hear @guyshrubsole.bsky.social speaking at #WildSummitUK . We need a #RightToRoam along all of britains waterways, not just a limited selection.

👏 Fantastic panel at the #WildSummit UK! 📢 @tonyjuniper.bsky.social: “We need a mindset change to restore nature—currently we don’t have the legal framework to do so. We need to protect nature in a climate vulnerable world. Nature is essential for economic development and national security.”

Brilliant citizens assembly session with XR at #WildSummitUK

Great amendments from the Lords. Sensible, low cost improvements that would reap big benefits for wildlife and nature. Who could possibly object to a small hole in fence to allow our native hedgehog to move around? www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

Peace cannot be built while negotiators are bombed. Israel’s strike on Doha crosses yet another red line. The government must do more than condemn — it must act: end all arms sales & military cooperation and sanction Netanyahu et al. #StopTheWar #Gaza

“When Westminster presides over abysmal waiting lists or pays billions on Covid contracts to the mates of cabinet ministers, no one says, “let’s abolish Westminster” Wales needs fair funding system, not what England thinks it needs. Totally agree with Will. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Restore Trust have announced that their endorsed candidates for the AGM are: Alka Sehgal Cuthber, Anthony Mealing, Bijan Omrani, David Wyatt, Georgia Cristea, Lawrence Goldman, Patrick Streeter. So now you know who to avoid

League tables didn’t work the first time. It didn’t work in education. When people have only one main hospital, what is the point,other than to undermine their reputation? More staff, more funding, more beds and sort out social care. That will work. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

If you are a National Trust member and intend voting at this years AGM, beware who you vote for. The extreme 'Restore Trust ', funded by big oil, are still trying to infiltrate the board with their activist candidates. To be safe-choose the quick vote, NT recommended candidates.

Members of the Global Sumud Flotilla Steering Committee have called on the world to keep its eyes on Gaza following an Israeli explosive drone that fell directly on one of the flotillas

The Prime Minister can call me names - “plastic progressive”? (Nope, me neither!) Meanwhile, I’m travelling across England and Wales, meeting people fired up and ready for change. We’re going to turn this country around – and no one gets left behind.

“We need to be more sharper-edged, a bit spikier to be heard. I think that’s Zack’s message.”
