Community energy isn’t just clean energy, it’s climate resilience too 🌦️⚡ By owning and managing local solar, wind, and storage, communities can stay powered during outages, reduce reliance on distant grids, and respond faster in emergencies. Local energy = Local security 🤝🔒

Why would you pig-headedly ignore the voice of the next generation? Why would you saddle them with debt, shrink the job market and limit their opportunities? It runs counter to everything politics and society should want for them. For all of us. They’re the future.

A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right. Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement. This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.

Why didn't Farage just answer the question about Reform's education policy? Why did he seek to mock and ridicule the journalist asking a perfectly legitimate question and try to deligitimise the FT? Easy. That's who he is. An arrogant man who doesn't have any policies beyond pointing at the sea.
