Allowing betting companies to get such a hold on our screens, high streets and in people's homes was an appalling political decision: the monetisation of hope and the profiteering off disappointment and despair.

Being hated by idiots is the price you pay for not being one of them. - Jean Cocteau

Verify my age? When I was a kid I'd go with other local kids to play at the cement works among cement dust, heavy industry and juggernauts. They even had a very dusty kid's play park on the site.

Nature has been absent from discussions on the env impacts of AI data centres, which focus mainly on carbon emissions & water use. There has also been no consideration of how AI deployment by industry could gobble up more natural resources, activists warned. www.climatechangenews.com/2026/07/08/a...

Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think

Thanks for this really insightful article George CCS is a fossil fuel stitch-up - now with data centres. More data centres ⏩ more gas+CCS ⏩ more LNG ⏩ more methane ⏩ more heat🔥 Burnham has a chance to stop this spiralling - data centre moratorium, move CCS funding to green economy, no Rosebank

Fuel on the fire As the world swelters in ever more dangerous heat, why are oil companies being allowed to turn up the gas instead of paying for the consequences of their greed? My column on Big Oil’s mad, bad plan to increase production. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

We can choose. Not to consume media that attacks us. Not to vote for MPs who don't represent us. Not to trust charities that get co-opted into injustice for whatever reason. We'll win equality, compassion, fairness with or without them. Now back to welfare — though we didn't start that conversation.

The BBC cancelling Winterwatch is such a shame, especially when we need to be connecting with nature more than ever. If we want people to protect our wildlife, we have to show them it! Add your name to ask the BBC to reconsider. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/do...

"It's never too late to be what you could have been." - George Eliot

An utterly nonsensical decision from The BBC British nature is under enough attack without cutting one of the best wildlife programmes out there Sign the petition now and demand a reprieve @chrisgpackham.bsky.social act.38degrees.org.uk/act/don't-ca...

Will those responsible for global warming ever face the heat? | Fiona Katauskas www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Imagine if a terrorist killed 5,000 people in June in Germany There would be uproar and media would be reporting it day and night But when 5,000 people die as a result of fossil fuel induced climate change The media have nothing to say Big Oil are serial killers who are above the law

It tells you everything you need to know about the state of British society when the Anne Frank Trust has to step in because of the dehumanising attacks on the LGBT community. What a disgrace we’ve become

The de-banking of the Canary is a warning. If they can silence us, they can silence anyone. This attack on Canary is not isolated. It is part of a wider pattern of suppressing anti-establishment voices through financial pressure, says @rachaelswindon.bsky.social www.thecanary.co/opinion/2026...

Here's what the landlord lobby don't want you to know: If rents went down by 20%, renters would save £2400 a year. The government would save £2 billion a year. And landlords would still make 4.5 times as much profit as the average business.
