Well worth a read, Labour will not win back voters by misrepresenting their opponents.

Who profits from an energy crisis in the wake of the war on Iran? The 1%. Thanks @nytimes.com @hclairebrown.bsky.social for covering our research. Link to coverage: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/03/c... Link to our article:www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Again, Farage, Badenoch and their fellow travellers on X are wildly out of touch with the public on Iran. Even the majority of Reform supporters oppose their position.

Pretty astounding example of cognitive dissonance that today the NYT also published this piece which does not mention sea level rise or climate change even once. I guess the ultra rich can just let their tens of millions dollar homes go underwater, that kind of money is peanuts 🥜 to them these days.

Spain's leader with a message that should be adopted by every top Democrat

Am sticking with my bet that the right is reading this wrong and that the majority of voters are not at all unhappy Starmer has upset Trump by holding back from a war whose purpose and end game no-one seems able to define.

The Chancellor announces what the OBR thinks growth and per capita GDP will be in 2030. It’s not her fault but current events emphasising again how utterly meaningless these medium to long term economic forecasts really are. Policy making for a different, more settled age.

Excellent, hope she'll be a champion for green skills!

This man was murdered by the federal immigration authorities as surely as Renee Good and Alex Pretti were

Our food systems are absurdly fragile and fundamental to the entire economy - yet astonishingly, climate risk assessments don't take into account their collapse.

Now even the Wall Street Journal is admitting money in our economy flows to a rich elite 🤯 It's time to stop big banks & corporations exploiting people and nature to line their pockets and redesign our economic system for people & planet 🧡 Join us to find out more 👉positivemoney.org/uk...

Insanity. They are laughing at us.

📣 UK politicians

It is one of the maddest things that I have found since learning more about climate change over the past decade. We need to listen to the scientists not the economists on this!

Fundamentally flawed economic models mean #climatecrisis could crash global economy, experts warn - Shocks from extreme weather disasters and tipping points are entirely missed by the current models used by governments and financial institutions Story by me www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Because the owners don’t want them to.

How much will it cost the UK to reach an 87% cut in greenhouse gas emissions by 2040? In a new letter, @thecccuk.bsky.social confirms about £4bn a year (£26bn a year of costs minus £22bn a year of savings). www.theccc.org.uk/wp-content/u... 87% by 2040 is a stepping stone to net zero by 2050

An FOI request by Green Alliance senior fellow @ruthchambers.bsky.social triggered the release of the government's report on 'Global biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and national security' last week. Here's more on that from Ruth, why it is a major wake-up call and what needs to happen next.

Brits: you are nowhere near frightened enough of what's happening in the US right now and what UK politicians are promising with the help of Palantir and friends. From @ markmcposts on IG.

Omg release this poor child, with his parents, and get him medical help.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem. Thank you. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"If even the security services are gagged when they tell the government what it doesn’t want to hear, perhaps our communication style, or our modes of protest or our dress sense, are not, as we keep being told, the problem"

The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions. It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

Reminding you all that Nigel Farage has proudly claimed he is going to be setting up a British version of ICE here in the UK to terrorise us just like American ICE if he ever becomes PM. He has openly said he wants to deport legal migrants.

A great tool to say no to Palantir in your local health service.

genuinely stunning image

Whereas I think many politicians here would say they do know - but it's clear from their actions that they either don't understand it deeply or are actively choosing to ignore what they know. Tbh, a lack of knowledge is an easier thing to solve for.

This comes just after the president publicly demanded that ICE should start showing the public how terrible the people are who they're grabbing and arresting. In this case, his name is Liam. He's five years old. www.kare11.com/article/news...

“Ecosystem degradation is occurring across all regions. Every critical ecosystem is on a pathway to collapse (irreversible loss of function beyond repair). [high confidence]”

An across-government technical assessment published today recognises that "nature is the foundation of national security" and that "every critical ecosystem is on a pathway to collapse". A rational response to this would be to get very serious about nature recovery. www.gov.uk/government/p...

As Bill Gates recommends a “strategic pivot” away from climate change, the Gates Foundation made record investments in fossil fuel companies in 2024, despite its 2019 pledge to divest. No one should ever listen to Gates about climate change again.

This is barely making headlines today but reveals a lot about everything else going on right now..

Tens of thousands of people in Kent and Sussex have repeatedly been left without water. Their water company is now under investigation. Why are water companies failing us again and again? Because we privatised what is an essential public service. @dhnnjyn.bsky.social explains.

"Around a tenth of Britain’s land has been privatised since 1979. Now if councils want to buy land back they are charged extortionate prices shaped by speculation and scarcity, making it harder for them to afford to build social homes," said @hollies.bsky.social inews.co.uk/news/politic...
