Starmer could have taxed the massive profits of big oil… and changed policy to make energy cheaper, more secure, and less damaging to our kids’ futures Instead he is spending £22b of our money on tech to offset the damage of fossil fuels Treating the symptom not the disease!

Stop selling arms to Israel then.
Reports that Israeli strikes have hit health facilities and support personnel in Lebanon are deeply disturbing.   All parties must comply with international humanitarian law. Our priority is an immediate ceasefire on both sides so Israeli and Lebanese civilians can return home.

Imagine if they spent £22 billion on restoring peat bogs, the oceans, forests (proven carbon capture), or on public transport, insulation, solar – literally anything but this, which is just playing into the hands of the fossil fuel bros and delaying the transition to green energy
Letter from leading scientists calling for the Gov to halt & re-assess carbon capture plans. We know the previous Gov was captured by Big Oil. Labour now really needs to listen to these experts. theguardian.com/environment/… Key points 🧵 @campaigncc @Andrew9Boswell @KevinClimate

This is absolute madness. Carbon capture and storage has failed time and again. Labour has slashed reliable green programmes, to pour vast sums of our money into a complete crock. The only possible explanation is lobbying by fossil fuel companies.🧵 theguardian.com/environment/…

I cannot be the only person to find it utterly astonishing that the UK Conservative Party, the party of Churchill, Thatcher, Macmillion, Baldwin and Disraeli can find no better than these four to be its future leader.

You haven't seen complexity in art until you've seen this 600-year-old painting. It's so detailed that modern medicine has been able to diagnose this man's exact type of blindness. And that's where things get mind-bendingly strange — this whole thing is an illusion... 🧵

“When maximum sentence for chaining yourself to railings is more than twice maximum sentence for racially aggravated assault, anyone who cares about justice should be appalled”. Spot on ⁦@GeorgeMonbiot⁩ - Labour should repeal these draconian laws now👇 theguardian.com/commentisfre…

Never forgive, never forget.
Still reeling from this horrific evidence from Prof John Edmunds at the Covid Inquiry yesterday. In refusing to lockdown in autumn 2020, Boris Johnson was responsible for up to 25,000 Covid deaths by ignoring the experts & evidence. It’s sickening 😔

🔴MICHELLE MONE: The Great Betrayal Perhaps, Mone has blackmailed the Establishment to avoid bringing their membership into disrepute? Are undeleted Whatsapp messages and emails spreading out across the world hidden in digital storage?
WHY is MICHELLE MONE still living in the lap of luxury? Is she being protected? It’s disgraceful but not surprising. TORIES' set up a PPE system which allowed Mone and others to shamelessly profiteer and without consequences? #PPEScandal

The British media did not report that most delegations walked out of the UN to show their opposition to Israel? Is it not important for British people to understand that our support for Israel is at odds with most of the world?
Most countries walk out of Netanyahu’s speech at the UN, leaving him to talk to an empty hall. Israel is done.
