I can’t believe we’re still having a debate about whether there’s a trade off between job creation and measures to green the economy. There isn’t. The evidence was clear years ago - a green economy creates far more jobs than the fossil fuel economy it replaces. Come on Labour, catch up …

The impact of wildfire smoke, indoor volatile organic compounds, cigarette smoke, extreme weather and COVID aren’t wholly separate issues. They’re one air‑movement health emergency shaped by climate and public‑health failures, avoided because fixing them costs money. #ClimateEmergency #AirPollution
Crop yields down, our countryside scorched and over 2800 people are dead due to this summer's heatwaves. Meanwhile fossil fuel giants are raking in record profits. We must end this rampant profiteering, and cut fossil fuels from our energy mix as soon as possible.

It doesn't matter if #Reform know about #UK history - they thrive on lies, disinformation, fear & hate. Also: migrants do not get "rewarded" with benefits on arrival, only specific groups are eligible & they only become eligible after refugee status is granted, & they must apply like anyone else.
Gerry Hassan@gerryhassan.bsky.social · 22h agoThe UK has existed as a state since 1801. The current borders of the UK have been in place since 1922. Do Reform UK politicians NOT know the basics of UK history?
