Approval of east London datacentre labelled ‘slap in the face’ for local democracy. Datacentre prioritised over building affordable homes. Little attention to environmental issues. Govt overturning local council refusal is not devolution or democracy. Big business always wins.

They are free to not get medical care and to die of racism

What a headline! A victory for compassion, science and common sense!

Yet we're allowing local councils to agree planning permission for data centres.....madness! bsky.app/profile/skyr...

Microsoft wants to build three massive AI data centres in Leeds. It’ll drain thousands of litres of water from the River Aire and become the city's biggest carbon emitter. We can still stop the council's final sign-off, but we need more voices. Add your name: you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/pr...

Everywhere I look today I keep seeing: 1) deadly wildfires ripping through our communities 2) people desperately trying to get by as energy costs soar 3) record oil & gas profits When will we see that these three things are connected? www.wsj.com/business/ene...

Big Oil Is Reaping Rewards From the Chaos in Energy Markets

ExxonMobil’s earnings doubled and Chevron posted its highest quarterly earnings on record as energy prices soared during the prolonged closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

Plans approved for AI data Centre in Brick Lane The government statement on this is about the need for new homes when it is providing a grand total of SIX social rent units.

IDF just murdered another Palestinian in Nablus Shot to death

Is “pragmatic” the new, “grown up” word? Andy, there’s nothing “pragmatic” about drilling for more oil & gas - to even consider it with the planet literally on fire is total madness. How many times must we say it will do nothing for energy bills or security? It would be an act of utter recklessness

Burnham promises ‘pragmatic’ approach to North Sea oil and gas

PM tells reporters the government cannot ignore the energy resource ‘when people are struggling’

It is putting it mildly to describe these people as a death cult.

Half of the country is in "exceptionally serious drought" - putting us at more risk of wildfires and threatening our food security. Meanwhile water companies are wasting a staggering 2.87 billion litres of water every day through leaky pipes. Time to end water privatisation.

Uber Eats and DoorDash hid tip buttons and set default tips below 10%. As a result, tips for delivery workers fell 79%.  In January, we made these corporations change their apps — and in the past six months, we've put $104 million back in delivery workers' pockets.  This is only the beginning.

Our #RewildTheGhostWoods campaign has secured £5.9 million funding for ancient woodland restoration! 🌳🙌 But we're not going to sit back and say 'job done'! We'll be holding Andy Burnham's new government to account. Support our work: wildcard.land/support/sign... #AncientWoodlands #CampaignWin

I would suggest that cynically indulging the bullshit and horrible behaviour of bad faith, very right wing crackpots is *precisely* how we wound up in this abysmal situation in the first place

Alarm at NHS England as patient records put under control of US private equity firm TPG via a takeover. Business model is profiteering, not care for patients. Regulatory/Govt silence on expansion of private equity. Public money fuelling PE growth.

Just loving how John Cleese, now reduced to one of his own caricatures, rages about immigrants coming to the UK and failing to accept "our" culture, from his home in ... (checks notes) ... Nevis in the Caribbean.

I've been out in Canada talking to people who fear their health will be affected if the gov't allows oil firms to treat + release tailings waste into the Athabasca River - which feeds drinking water supplies for First Nations. Hear the full report here: theworld.org/segments/202...

Far-right agitator Kellie-Jay Keen deliberately disrupting two Muslim men, as they prayed in a corner of Hyde Park. When government, politicians, media and pundits stay silent about this, they’re condoning it. As this would never be allowed, had these been Jewish worshippers

I'd like to share a clip of Falconer explaining why the UK is still arming Israel when the defence secretary has said they've committed war crimes & the minister for the cabinet office has said they've committed genocide. But #BBCBreakfast didn't ask him about it so I can't.

This is wild. 93% of the renewable electricity generation added to the Irish grid over that last decade now powers data centers, rather than reducing fossil fuel use. Data centers have pretty much annihilated the health and climate benefits those renewables could have provided.

Hannah Daly@hannahdaly.ie · 4w ago

What is even more striking is that data centre demand has matched 93% of the growth in renewable electricity generation (wind + solar + hydro) over the past decade. If we measure since 2020, data centre demand has grown nearly 3-times faster than renewable electricity growth.

150,000 marched yesterday in London for trans rights. Opened the Sky News app. Scrolled and scrolled. Nothing. BBC News app. Nothing. Guardian app. Nothing. This is what actual silencing looks like.

Terrifying to see wildfires raging through Scotland. The climate crisis isn't a distant threat - it's right here and right now. How many warning signs and alarm bells until Andy Burnham takes action to end oil and gas drilling?
