Heat pump growth stalls as government support cut, warns climate watchdog https://www.europesays.com/uk/1046341/ In contrast to heat pumps, continuing record sales of electric cars indicate they are all but set to…

The top frame is from 2015, when French meteorologists did a “forecast” from a #climate heated August 2050 - a warning on what could possibly happen in 35 years time. Bottom frame: well, it’s happened in barely a decade, only it’s already *much* worse than predicted. It’s a runaway train.

Radical idea. Maybe, the Dom Cummings, the Morgan McSweeney, the person that actually decides on policy and runs the country needs to be someone we get to elect? #Democracy

Food for thought on our broken capitalist system... broken for the majority thedailybritain.co.uk/clara-mattei...

Big up to all those working on the rail crash site near Bedford. The railways have kept our country working for 200 years 💚 www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcHm...

Whilst I agree its bad that you were screwed over, lets go with it because there is sooo little to help get people from the air to the tracks. 40ºc

What a grim day.

The consensus amongst the scientists on the panel is that we are seeing impacts that are much worse and much sooner than they had anticipated earlier in their careers

"The 15 consecutive days over 32°C in 1976 would become 15 consecutive days over 35°C (three degrees hotter) in today’s climate."

"I’ve got to get the train to get to my last driving lesson today before my test" - a fundamental lack of understanding.

Growth. We could all get heat pumps but our politicians are paid for by the “more oil and gas monsters” 40ºc

NO! It's going to keep getting hotter year-on-year, decade-by-decade Until we stop pumping out greenhouse gases and positive feedback loops and tipped tipping points have finished with us And the temperature will stay elevated for many thousands of years www.theguardian.com/world/video/...

Israel has committed genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity across Palestine, a UN commission of inquiry has said

No-one, not anyone, is doing enough.

Lawful, yet still criminal www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c6...

I’m okay, only 32º here, the internet is still up and I didn’t have to show my passport to use it. The cat’s hot though, I’m looking out for her best I can.

Zack is getting good quality air time today, and he is making really good use of it 💚

This part of France has several measures in the record zone already

Write a story about, and show picture of, the vulnerable Parisians dying in their apartments from the extreme heat you cowards.

Anyway in other news your democracy, yes I know it was very sick, has also been completely replaced now. By “the markets”. Make sure you swear allegiance or you might be severely punished.

This is what’s called ‘soft’ climate change denial, which is arguably more damaging that the more classical (‘hard’ denial) kind. People are being actively discouraged to think about reality.

Some parts of France reached 40º by lunchtime. Already in the UK there are places in the mid 30’s. 12:30pm

"Are you prepared to have this kind of progressive alliance that a lot of people have talked about to keep Farage out of No.10" @zackpolanski.bsky.social : "I think the way we can keep Farage out of No.10 is by growing the Green party.. we're the home of progressive politics"

It’s a Starmer free day today. I am going to enjoy it as such.

Help! They are coming for us with ... clean electricity produced here

May all your data centres catch fire.

Brave and important move from Greenpeace. If the UK government won't even secure protected areas of seabed from being scraped clean by industrial trawlers then activists need to step in and do it themselves. www.greenpeace.org.uk/news/breakin...

Starmer may have resigned but the new health Secretary is still insisting that trans kids will stop being trans

All of us are focused on the ways Starmer persecuted us as individuals. That’s why it is such a mess. #jointhegreens

Andy Burnham now holds many political prisoners. People who blocked roads because it will be 40º every day. People who smashed drones that were killing innocent babies. People who held up signs. Political prisoners.

Tell the UK government: pause data center development action.eko.org/a/tell-the-u...

Will Andy Burnham shag flags?

It was Josh Simons, made way for Burnham in parliament. Does it really need Hercule Poirot to figure out the plot? There will not be any change in policy.

This is only the beginning. The climate crisis is here. So why are politicians and most of the media still acting as though this can wait? It can't. We can still avoid some of the worst impacts - but only if we find the courage to act. metro.co.uk/2026/06/22/g...

In his excellent contribution in the debate on a petition calling for a public inquiry into pro-Israel influence on our politics, @shockatadam.bsky.social highlights the role of Elbit systems in Israels genocides and repeated meetings between executives of the company & govt ministers.

This is a welcoming account. 🏳️‍⚧️

I don’t want to be a crude leftie, but the Guardian has a column on Where It All Went Wrong for Starmer that doesn’t mention Gaza/Palestine even once either as a foreign policy issue or as a target of domestic repression - come on, man.

What’s he going to do next? Sales director for Elbit? Thames water CEO? Director of greenwash for Heathrow expansion? Or perhaps just a journo at the Sun.

shit

The realisation that things we take for granted will be hugely impacted by climate collapse is surely just around the corner?

I’ve been listening to papers’ and magazines’ politics podcasts for years and I can confirm that the issue here is not “the public can’t explain to journalists why they don’t like Keir Starmer”. The hacks clearly don’t like the reasons they’re hearing, but there is no public reluctance to explain.

I keep hearing "Keir Starmer is a decent man". Never mind the vibes: decent is as decent does. And all this and more is the opposite of decent.

Starmer’s chilling legacy podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/j...

Bills up. Wages too low. Record profits for Oil & Gas. 50 richest families with more wealth than 50% of population. Shit in our rivers. Pensioners jailed for protesting. Migrants thrown under the bus. Supporting a Genocide. That's Starmer's legacy.

The way Andy Burnham is treated by the media will be a measure of how much is actually going to change. But I guess even no change will generate some vitriol. Because even the crumbs we get are too much for the billionaires.

"Starmer cannot resign, that is what the tories did” 🤔

The complete loss of cold years in the Arctic since the 1980s is astounding. The last "blue" stripe was 1992, following the Pinatubo Volcano eruption in the summer of 1991. #ShowYourStripes #Climate #Arctic

UK temperatures nudging 40 on Wednesday, when MPs will be debating the seventh carbon budget, and some will likely be calling for the climate change act/net zero to be scrapped…

The vested interested are now calling empathy “sinister”.
