I just emailed my MP through the #CleanWaterNow campaign 🌊 calling for a new water law to stop pollution and restore rivers, lakes and seas. Every voice matters – will you join me? foe.uk/2wl7n
And here’s the organisations lobbying the government to make access to heat pumps cheaper and easier for normal people!!!
Man, this has been too true for too long. And beyond, "Okay, but get a heat pump" there's also "here's how to get a heat pump" and "here's a great installer."
@feargalsharkey.bsky.social quoted this by Seamus Heaney tonight at the Guardian climate event and it was needed
“History says, Don't hope on this side of the grave. / But then, once in a lifetime the longed-for tidal wave of justice can rise up, / And hope and history rhyme”
I wrote a basic outline of an obituary for Ozzy Osbourne for Noisey about 13 years ago. He outlived Noisey. You can say that much for the man. No more tears
Today, after 14 years, I’m resigning from the Labour Party.

Spain just released a report detailing the reasons behind the country's April blackouts. Britain's Daily Telegraph is now directly lying about the report, falsely claiming that solar power was to blame for the power cuts. The lies are being spread on social media.

What are we (mis)using Earth for?
Would love to hear your thoughts on my new short film. Each second = 1% of global land use. What would you change if you had the power?

Is this a ploy to get us to rejoin X?
Yes Austria. That was tense

WE’VE WON OUR CASE TO #DefendDemocracy
The Court of Appeal has ruled that anti-protest laws which completely ignored the will of Parliament are unlawful
Richard Littlejohn's face is the answer to "AI - Please generate an image of a person most likely to say this headline"
Labour's base-punching strategy reminds of the Seinfeld episode where George is so obsessed with making Jerry's girlfriend like him (she clearly hates him) that he neglects his own girlfriend (who does like him) and she leaves him
BREAKING: Win for @libertyhq.bsky.social - the Court of Appeal upholds ruling that Suella Braverman did NOT have the power to redefine ‘serious disruption’ as ‘more than minor’ disruption, to enable the police to impose conditions on protests.
Sad Labour was defending illegal & authoritarian laws.
"And we believe in people having the ability to express their views. The people who express their views should appreciate that you are actually helping them through the work that you're doing to exercise the freedoms that they are exercising."
what the actual...
"Protesters to some extent should be grateful to you because of what you're doing. The capability you're putting into the security of our country is intended to ensure that we don't get drawn into conflict because we've got the capability of showing the world that we can defend what we believe in."
Starmer today at arms maker Leonardo when asked how he can help with the protests outside their office..
"We have the right to freedom of expression and to protest in this country. But that was hard won. They're the values of the freedoms that we are defending through the work that you're doing."
Starmer did NOT come to Luton when Vauxhall closed and thousands lost their jobs.
Starmer DID come to Luton to launch a new drone that will kill millions.

Trump: "You know how I feel about the Gaza Strip. I think it's an incredible piece of important real estate. And I think it's something that we would be involved in. Having a peace force like the US there controlling and owning the Gaza Strip would be a good thing ... you call it the Freedom Zone."
Luton Airport Expansion approved. Come visit me and see these orchids before they're flattened because rich people travelling in their private planes is clearly more crucial to this government stoplae.org/wigmore-vall...

Proof some people aren’t human. I defy people not to stand up when they hear this song
Inspired by Mark Thomas gig last night I'm only going to pronounce the Tory leader's surname as if Nigel Farage (rhymes with marriage) is scolding his dog for weeing on the carpet
A picture of Elon Musk doing a Nazi salute. In the foreground, the text: Turns out hate and bigotry are bad marketing strategies. It's time to Ditch Tesla.
All Text: Elon Musk might be the richest man alive, but Tesla - the company that made him a billionaire - is tanking all over the world. Tesla stocks are down from $480 in December to $350 in January. Let's keep up the pressure and show Tesla shareholders and consumers that investing in this reckless billionaire's company is bad for business and bad for the world.
Image in the background is a protest sign saying "Stop Musk's Takeover". Text in front: We're up against the richest man in teh world - this will only work if everyone joins. To Tesla shareholders and the wider public, we urge you to use your power as investors and consumers by abandoning Elon Musk. Vote against him in shareholder resolutions, sell your Tesla stock, and opt for alternative EV companies. Too much is at stake to let Elon Musk enrich himself off Tesla. Add your name at DitchTesla.com
Elon wants to take over the US (and the world?)? It should cost him. It's time to take on his cushy Tesla gig by tanking the company's value and putting his position...and wealth...in the crosshairs. Join the campaign at DitchTesla.com and share far and wide.

Is your kid Egon Schiele?
It also allows the Home Secretary to amend some of the laws WITHOUT proper scrutiny from Parliament
Without any democratic vote, any minor change to the law could have HUGE consequences + criminalise innocent people
