Wir sollten die USA ab sofort als Unrechtsstaat behandeln, "Maga" zur terroristischen Vereinigung erklären und ein Wirtschaftsembargo verhängen.

This election is an appeal for trust, a battle against fear and a straight fight between Greens and Reform | Hannah Spencer

80% of agricultural land is used for livestock (and textiles), yet this huge land use provides only 17% of our calories and 38% of our protein. 16% of the land used for crops provides 83% of our calories and 62% of our protein. It's past time we rethink what we eat.

Doppelerfolg für Tempo 30: Gerichte in München & Berlin stoppen die rechtswidrige Abschaffung und machen klar: Luftreinhaltepläne sind verbindlich. #Tempo30 schützt Gesundheit & Verkehrssicherheit – Städte dürfen das nicht einfach kassieren. www.duh.de/presse/press...

A foreign policy for the working class is one where states collaborate to discipline capital instead of working with capital to discipline our democracies. Kitchen table conversation about anti-fascist economics with the one and only @aoc.bsky.social in Berlin.

This ruling shows that proscribing Palestine Action was a grave misuse of terrorism laws. Labour must accept its mistake, drop its appeal and stop wasting taxpayers' money suppressing civil liberties. Degrading counter-terror powers is a genuine threat to national security.

The threat of fascism is real. Economics has too often helped rather than hindered its rise. We need an anti-fascist economics to defend our democracies. So, I’m writing a book to do my part. More soon.

The Paris municipal election is next month. New York City & Mayor Mamdani showed us the inspirational power of the right election result. The Paris election has the opposite potential — the most inspiring city in the world in recent years potentially going backwards. Please Paris, keep inspiring us.

Great article about how some countries (like Romania) have seen absolute decoupling, but that this is not sufficiently fast for climate mitigation targets. In addition most countries have only seen relative decoupling and many have also been recoupling. #greengrowrh is not enough, we need #degrowth!

Meet Hannah Spencer - Green MP candidate for Gorton and Denton, and the only vote to stop Reform.

Growth has a near mythical status in the affections of economists + politicians. But wishful thinking won’t solve the climate crisis. #Postgrowth economics is not about returning to the cave but about breaking free from our intellectual prisons.—@timjackson.org.uk www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Great introductor explainer on #postgrowth and #degrowth - we need to take nature seriously and aim for sufficient absolute decoupling of wellbeing from all ecological impacts.

For all its flaws the UN is a huge force for good. So Trump wants to replace it with a club of compliant oligarchs and ugly dictators www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Unpopular Opinion: Es ist kein Zufall, dass Henry Ford, der Mann, der auf die fatale Idee kam, jeder Mensch solle ein eigenes Auto fahren, der also eine große Schuld daran trägt, dass die Welt so scheiße ist, wie sie ist, ein menschenhassender Faschist und Bewunderer Hitlers war.

“Amsterdam is set to ban climate-damaging advertising [fossil fuel and meat adverts] in public spaces, following a trend spreading across Dutch cities. France has also enacted legislation outlawing adverts from non-renewable energy companies, and one Italian city has plans to do the same.”

Yet again a Labour minister lets the cat out of the bag. They are expecting to come third in Gorton and Denton. Only the Green Party can stop Reform. Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win.

Labour is briefing that they know they won't win the Gorton and Denton by election. The Greens are favourites and are the only party that can stop Reform. Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win.

The Gorton & Denton by-election is Green vs Reform.

We have 400 volunteers on the streets of Gorton and Denton today. Labour are out of it. It's Greens vs Reform. Lower bills, tax the rich, protect the NHS. We will win. www.huffingtonpost.co.uk/entry/exclus...

Dear @trenitalia why do you cancel your trains less than a week in advance for planned building works? Have you heard of customer service? Please provide an alternative, not just say there isn't and please get in touch. That's even worse than SNCF - customers matter! #crossborderrail

For me, this book didn't feel particularly revelatory because it's just common sense. Infinite growth is impossible on a finite planet, and measuring economic stability with a single metric (GDP) completely flattens and obstructs reality. @matthiasschmelzer.bsky.social @avansi.bsky.social #climate

Sehr gut, dass Florian Hager endlich mit dem Phantom "Neutralität" aufräumt: "Das Wort kommt in der Beschreibung des Auftrags der Sender gar nicht vor. Dort stehen die Worte Objektivität und Überparteilichkeit." www.zeit.de/politik/deut...

Labour took votes for granted. They've blown it. Green Party want to lower bills, protect our NHS and rebuild our public services. Vote Green - and stop Reform. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

“Jaywalking is permitted in London. In 1966, the police tried to crack down on it, but gave up after three months.” People walk and cycle on roads by right, people drive under licence. Jaywalking is not a thing in English law and Waymo must not change that. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ok, let’s do this🙄 We’ll start with an explainer covering: 🕒What is a 15-minute city 🏫What on Earth is going on with Oxford 👽Where the conspiracy theories have come from And then we’ll look at the Telegraph article 🧵 1/25

Say hello to Hannah Spencer—councillor, plumber, greyhound lover and your Green Party candidate for Gorton and Denton 💚

Labour vote is collapsing in Gorton and Denton. Only Greens can take on Reform at this election. We will be announcing our candidate tomorrow morning!

This is what an entire party stepping up looks like. Together, we stop Reform. Together, we win Gorton & Denton. Join.greenparty.org.uk

Pollution from "forever chemicals" will cost the EU half a trillion euro, according to a new official estimate And yet EU leaders and industry lobbyists will call for MORE deregulation of toxic substances Because that money will come out of your pocket, not theirs www.politico.eu/article/fore...

Climate change could lead to 123 million additional malaria cases and 532,000 deaths between 2024 and 2050. Extreme weather events are identified as the primary driver. The findings emphasize the need for climate-resilient malaria control strategies and robust emergency response systems.

It's not fashionable to talk about consuming less as a climate solution because our economy is based on selling us crap that no one needs.

Labour say a Green win would be "existential." Sounds like an invitation.... Join.greenparty.org.uk

Sorry, TAZ, aber das kommt dabei raus, wenn man eine Geschichte über die europäischen Eisenbahnen zusammenbastelt, ohne mit jemandem zu sprechen, der den ganzen Überblick hat – eine Art zusammenhanglose Liste von Punkten. #CrossBorderRail

Zack Polanski's calling it a con. Feargal Sharkey says "The only people who will be paying for this are customers and billpayers". 9 out of 10 countries in the world run water in public ownership. But the government's new Water Bill takes us in the opposite direction.

Heute demonstriert der kurdische Kulturverein in Erfurt! Die Lage für das Autonome Nord-Ost-Syrien ist dramatisch und wir wollen mit den kurdischen Genoss*innen Aufmerksamkeit dafür schaffen, dass mit Hilfe des NATO Partners Türkei die Selbstverwalter in Rojava angreift. Stoppt den Krieg!

Worth noting the groups against bus stop bypasses are also against continuous footways, which are hugely beneficial for users of wheelchairs & mobility aids. We have to accept there isn’t one ideal solution for everyone & stop simplistic bans. www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/news/edinbur...
