I'm glad Kimmel is coming back. However, "free speech" where you can reverse government-coerced corporate censorship but only if your supporters make stock price influencing noise would be like a healthcare system in which you need a GoFundMe to go viral to afford treatment. ... wait.

Please read this.

Before you shrug and say “Oh. PPE again. Old news” Remember 1/ that cost lives due to reduced - or no- protection 2/ All those £billions could have been spent on crumbling NHS and school infrastructure Instead it went into Tory crony pockets That‘s your money & my money going into their pockets

"I never wrote a picture in my life" he says. "It's all a Democrat Hoax" he says. $10 Billion lawsuit vs. the Wall Street Journal still on he says. Wonder what he'll say in the deposition when asked about his pal EPSTEIN & their daily "wonderful secrets"? #ReleaseTheEPSTEINFilesNOW

The govt don’t need to just challenge Reform’s anti immigration stance but many will say be honest about the desperate need for more migrants. Net migration is lowering, we are an ageing population and have huge job shortages. The country’s lifeline is immigration. Only 2-3% arrive on boats.

Green leader Zack Polanski calls for Farage’s resignation over tax, on BBC Any Questions: "Farage has changed his personal business to make sure he could avoid tax for his appearances on GBNews. That’s perfectly legal, but is that in the Nolan Principles? Absolutely not. [He should] step down too.”

This is my flag.

100% this. I'd not thought about it like this before. Read the thread.

I genuinely think one thing that trips up folks on the left is that they can't imagine not sharing certain core values. Lemme explain. Here's an intuition pump: Say you're in negotiations with counterparty X. And there are two possible deals on the table ...

Definitely don't repost the research that anti-wind groups are trying to bury using lawsuits www.climatedevlab.brown.edu/services-1 drive.google.com/file/d/1TAZw...

To be clear what happened here. Israel bombed a hospital. They waited for paramedics and first responders to arrive. Then they bombed it again. This is known as the 'double tap'. You are watching unfathomable evil, armed and facilitated by the West.

#weouthere is finally upon us!!!. Oi oi 🤩🤩🤩 see you at the front on the left, by the speakers !!! 😁

Plastic is often seen as a cheap material but scientists in The Lancet argue it is expensive when including damage to health One estimate of the health damage from just three plastic chemicals – PBDE, BPA and DEHP – in 38 countries was $1.5tn a year. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

As a GP, I am not allowed to receive a pen or post-it note pad from a pharmaceutical company rep! Govt banned them in case I was influenced to prescribe medications. This should also be banned? Influence being bought in Govt? Patients should influence not the healthy & wealthy

❗ You know what is driving British businesses and the wealthy away? ⚠️ Brexit

⏳Final week to sign up to the Green Party. 🗳️ Vote for Bold Leadership on August 1st.

Kinda blows a hole in Reforms narrative 🧐 who knew. Far-age will have us taking expensive Russian gas.

We need to fly less, climate change is burning the world!

Hey, UK media! Are you just going to let Farage dump another steaming pile of populist bullshit on us *without ever* properly scrutinising his ideas or him…his funding, his riots, his links to Putin and Trump, his Brexit shitshow, his grifting side gigs, his lies, his ignorance…? Call. Him. TF. Out.

What the news isn't telling you about the US floods:

These brave young Mexican women are heroines in Texas. Silvana Garza Valdez and María Paula Zárate, both 19 years old, rescued 20 girls trapped by the flooding of the Guadalupe River. Why isn’t the mainstream media covering this?

Gary’s right. How can we allow the top 0.1% to get ever richer while kids in this country go to bed hungry? This isn’t a society - it’s a malfunction. Time to hit reset.

The wealth of world’s 3,000 billionaires has surged by $6.5tn (£4.8tn) in real terms over past decade, In total the richest 1% of the global population has gained at least $33.9tn in real terms They are pulverizing life on Earth and it needs to stop www.theguardian.com/news/2025/ju...

"locking in a world order of failing assumptions & hierarchies. "Not making the world a better place, but casting a veneer of credibility over why it is necessary that we live in this worse one" Oof. @nesrinemalik.bsky.social never misses but this is GOOD. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Sharing this on the eve of tomorrow's vote. I am a palliative care doctor who is not opposed to AD. But enshrining in law a state-funded right to die, while not enshrine a similar right to the palliative care that might make life worth living, is so very wrong. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

World’s largest banks pledged $869bn to fossil fuel firms in 2024. Planet sizzles whilst banks, their shareholders and execs count profits, dividends and fat paychecks. Yet their websites talk about corporate social responsibility. There is no planet B.

Absolutely this. Where is the leadership that counters this global war mongering and promotes peace and prosperity?

I fully agree with this commentary: "But true security does not lie in the constant expansion of arms stockpiles or the normalisation of an “always-on” munitions industry. It lies in diplomacy, civilian protection, and a commitment to addressing the root causes of conflict, not merely the symptoms."

I've had enough. I'm fighting back against the Far Right. Danny Rampling thought he could scare us into silence but I am going to countersue. Help me take these nutcases to court. Every little helps. A like and a share costs nothing at all. gofund.me/c43dcaef

FUN FACT: Since 2019, Nigel Farage's Reform has taken more than £2.3 MILLION from oil and gas interests - making up an astonishing 92% of the party's donations. Reform are NOT for ordinary people. They're in the pockets of the big oil lobby.

NEW from me: China's CO2 emissions fell ~1.6% in the first quarter and have now been flat or down for more than a year. This is the first time on record that emissions are falling due to clean energy growth, not slow power demand.

This is only a big deal if you consider a livable climate “important” or “necessary.” www.newscientist.com/article/2480...

Who had Trump and his American Megachurch lot declaring war on Catholicism on their apocalypse bingo cards?

Here they come...

Anyone wondering why arch neoliberal Blair is speaking against the scientific imperative to stop burning fossil fuels this decade? euroweeklynews.com/2016/04/29/t...

Blimey. CBS reporting the chief executives of Walmart and Target privately warned President Trump this week that his sweeping tariff policy could disrupt supply chains and lead to empty shelves in the coming weeks Way to go www.cbsnews.com/news/walmart...

This is a terrible terrible destructive decision. These sorts of long running research programmes take decades to build and their insights accumulate over decades too - the longer they run, the more valuable they become. This is knowledge vandalism. Nothing new and shiny can replace it.

The trees take 20 years to harvest and hemp takes a single season. In warm climates hemp can be harvested two or even three times a year.

Interesting from English-American billionaire founder of Y-Combinator. "What an interesting twist of history it would be if the UK became a hub of intellectual refugees the way the US itself did in the 1930s and 40s. It wouldn't take much more than what's already happening." ~AA

Why do we let the global price of gas set the price of the energy we make here from the wind and the sun?

UK energy prices are artificially high because of it. Farage and Badenoch have it completely wrong when they claim green energy is increasing bills - it’s the absolute opposite - fossil fuel pricing is doing that. We need to Break the Link. 2/2

Jeez. A clip has emerged of Donald Trump in the Oval Office discussing how people made money in the recent market fluctuations as a result of his tariffs. "He made two-and-a-half billion today, and he made nine hundred million, that's not bad!"

Let’s be clear. He sold $2.4 billion of his stock the day before he announced tariffs. He’s now crashing the stock market deliberately. He will then buy stock when it’s fallen through the floor. All this is is him stiffing everyone to get richer. That’s it.
