I'm absolutely furious that facts and information like this are allowed on social media while every Reform MP is working so hard to spread misinformation and lies and stir up our gullible supporters who will believe any old bollocks.

Over their 14 year rule, the Tories added a net 36 prison places per year. Sunak had to release over 10,000 prisoners early to cope with the crisis the Tories created. Since 2024, Labour have built 2,900 new places. But still the far right blame Labour for the Tory legacy.

As Ed Miliband leaves his post as energy and net-zero secretary, a final tally: There have been an incredible 251 newspaper editorials attacking him and his approach to net-zero since the start of 2024 That amounts to two editorials a week, mainly in the Sun, Daily Mail, Times and Daily Telegraph.

Just why, @andyburnham.bsky.social Why fall down at the altar of fossil fuel worship? I guess if you wanted to dash all hope that this Labour would be any better than the past, you've done that on day one. More status quo. More death and destruction. Got it. #KeepItInTheGround

It's Day 1 of Andy Burnham being Prime Minister & Donald Trump is celebrating the destruction of our planet. Meanwhile Spain doubled it's renewables - before they had some of the highest bills in Europe and now some of the lowest bills. Labour need to stop appealing to Trump.

The People of Aberdeen, in Scotland, are dancing in the streets because the new Prime Minister, Andy Burnham, has stated that he will be opening up, all the way, the invaluable North Sea Oil! It is one of the Greatest Sources of quality Oil on Earth, has hundreds of years of Capacity left, with much not even found yet, and will make the United Kingdom, from a Poverty Stricken Disaster, to one of the Richest Countries anywhere in the World! Britain pays Norway Billions of Dollars a year to buy its Oil, which they get from a less valuable part of the North Sea — How ridiculous is that! Also, word is that the UK is going to move the old and horrible looking windmills, which loom over and destroy the City of Aberdeen.That will be a big day for the Country, and will be very much appreciated by everybody. Such great potential in the UK, but it all starts with OPENING NORTH SEA OIL. WE LOVE YOU SCOTLAND! President DONALD J. TRUMP

What's the betting that the words 'climate change' never leave Burnham's lips? Yet one more PM who hasn't the slightest inkling of the hammer blows to UK economy and society that extreme weather will bring in the next couple of decades www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Why do some gardeners still use peat? Because they are selfish morons. If you want to see plants growing on peat, visit a peat bog. If you want plants in your garden, use another growing medium or grow something else....a conscience perhaps?

Prof Bill McGuire@profbillmcguire.bsky.social · 3w ago

"The environmental case against peat is so stark that it is hard to believe it is still legal to bag it up and sell it to gardeners". Anyone who still uses peat is either pig-ignorant, stupid or selfish - quite possibly all three. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

In case you wonder how such a neighbourhood may look like: a recently built neighbourhood, also in Utrecht, gives a good impression: -mixed high- and low density housing -lots of trees and green space -multiple playgrounds -ample space for walking and cycling
