There is no trustworthy relationship to be had with this Trump cult. Labour should be focusing their efforts on rejoining the SM and a CU. Anything else is just more of the same old same old from Labour. www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

“There are villages that I visited in years past that are now just gone.” Journalist infinite_jaz says Israel’s pogroms in the occupied West Bank are strategic and organized, not random acts of violence as they are often portrayed in the press.
Awww….That idiot (aka Putain de Merde) in the White House missed the legal deadline for screwing up birthright citizenship. I liked the cartoon. I don’t care who boots him out of our country.
The Righteous Rupert Lowe-Life preached about leaches sucking the financial blood out of Britain. This is the same Whoopert Lowe-Life whose company took £100k in furlough cash despite making £7.9 million profit He really didn’t need it but it was free, it was available so he took it like a leach
“It’s a rare chance for the kids in this neighbourhood to play outside together, in a space big enough to frolic and safe from traffic” More local authorities need to make this possible easily, by simplifying the application process and ensuring it’s always free. Streets should be spaces for play.
Leeds: The city closing down streets so children can play
In Leeds, streets are being temporarily closed to traffic so kids have more space to safely play - an initiative proving beneficial to both children and adults.

I can see now... "Hello, this is the Spiffing Brit, the new Minister of Economy. Let us start simple with some solar panels and berries - you will see why soon..."
Massachusetts farm installs 832 solar panels above berry fields, and the berries grown underneath turned out sweeter and juicier and could change the future of American farming - The Economic Times share.google/GDGqQBgisqhG...
My 2026 home energy improvement increased by 157%. Re-insulated and sealed rim joists reduced energy consumption. Results measured with daily heat pump usage in kilowatt-hours (kWh). Daily usage decreased from 9.80 kWh before the upgrade to 3.80 kWh after. More detail available, just ask.
If only the UK had massively subsidised the green economy with retraining for wind & solar and 100% home insulation instead of massively subsidising polluting but profitable oil and gas and warmongering ... meme via Neil McEvoy

I worry more about people like Lowe and Farage gaining real power than I do about the presence of immigrants from Somalia in the UK. Currently they make up 0.03% of the population.
I just can’t believe we’re seeing this sort of stuff from a sitting MP Just want to say to British Somalis that you are loved and I’m so, sorry this is happening.

Important and informative thread about #StopTheBoats
1/14 A brief break from #TheHormuzCrisis. I've never really explained why the phrase "put the Navy in the Channel" to stop #SmallBoat crossings isn't, in itself, a serious maritime strategy. It sounds decisive. From a maritime perspective though, it raises far more questions than it answers.
From today, EU citizens have a legal right to know when they're talking to a bot or looking at a deepfake, backed by fines of up to €15m. Thanks to Brexit, we're missing out on this protection.

The effective federal corporate income tax rate: 1950: 50% 1990: 25% 2020: 13% Stop asking "but how we will pay for it?" Restore the corporate tax rate. That is how we will pay for it.
Glan is grazed only once a year (in early winter) by our Dexter cattle, which gives all the wild plants time to seed out first, and finches and other small birds get to feed on seed heads. It's a 'work in progress', but is clearly already delivering for nature!
It's essential to add here that livestock farming, including cattle, is THE biggest cause of nature loss on Earth. While in certain situations seasonal grazing by tiny numbers of cattle can be beneficial (called 'conservation grazing'), this is *highly* exceptional. The vast majority kills nature.

Seriously have to hope that Bloomberg is underestimating solar installation growth. We need to hit 9 TW capacity within five years, not ten. So much depends on battery storage.
A few weeks ago, the world crossed a major solar milestone: 3 terawatt installed. Why did no one notice? 0.1 TW to 1 TW: 120 months 1 TW to 2 TW: 29 months 2 TW to 3 TW: 19 months Gift link to the story 🎁🔗 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
The World Crossed a Major Solar Milestone. No One Noticed
The next phase of the boom may reveal a shift in who is gaining access to the technology.
