End the sewage pollution scandal

Did you watch Dirty Business? I can't believe how much water companies have gotten away with. They're putting profit before public health - it’s a scandal and the Government MUST take action!

Mail is running a poll on whether the UK should rejoin the EU. Takes seconds to vote and it's going hilariously well... www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...

Just remember: the hateful claims made against Muslims today were previously made against Jews (and often still are). Sometimes word-for-word. Same hate, different targets. We all stand together against hatred, or we will be picked off one by one.

Reform’s by-election candidate Matt Goodwin received a salary of up to €10,000 a month from a far-right pressure group based in Hungary 👀 https://goodlaw.social/pif5

Orbán’s pay cheques: Reform candidate fuelled by profits from Russian oil

The Reform candidate at this month’s byelection claims he wants to put Britain first, but is he still on the payroll of Viktor Orbán’s far-right propaganda unit?

What would change in your life if the country you reside in chose stability over growth?

This week’s Frankly marks a new recurring segment: Uncomfortable Questions in Unstable Times. In this edition, he explores what would change if societies shifted their primary goal from growth to stability. www.thegreatsimplification.com/frankly-orig...

The UK gov has finally released the Global biodiversity loss, ecosystem collapse and national security report. We face catastrophe. Why aren't politicians acting? I think some are - but in ways perhaps just as frightening. My latest for Technosphere Earth. www.technosphere.earth/no-war-on-a-...

No war on a dead planet

If defence and intelligence agencies understand the risks from climate and biodiversity collapse, why can’t politicians?

This is a truly horrifying account of increasingly likely collapse of essential natural systems which would bring mass food shortages, price rises & global disorder. Commissioned from UK intelligence chiefs but scandalously suppressed by Govt, & sneaked out now while attention is elsewhere 👇

Energy expert Jean-Marc Jancovici explains why an energy transition will require a reversal of our cultural norms around accumulation and social status.

Here, from the parliamentary transcript, is the moment I felt: "it's like the start of a disaster movie, where no one seems prepared to understand the warning they're being given." committees.parliament.uk/oralevidence...

1. I've been banging on about the existential crisis facing our food system for years. But don't take it from me. Take it from the food professionals now risking their careers in an urgent and devastating warning to their own industry. Key quotes from their memo in 🧵 drive.google.com/file/d/1tATF...

Good morning all! 🇺🇦 Please share everywhere. 🙏🏻

Tory and Reform UK politicians endorse Trump because they want to carry out his programme in Britain. We have been warned.

It is obvious but worth repeating that regimes built on lies survive only as long as they can suppress truth. The promotion of complicit media (alternative facts) & denigration of objective media (facts) is not just desirable but essential. This process is being turbo-charged in the USA right now.

NEW: In November, I wrote a Guardian column headlined 'How to Survive the Broligarchy'. Pretty much everything predicted has now come true. What I'm launching today is part handbook, how to protect ourselves? And part manifesto, how to fight back? Please join me. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/broligar...

How to Survive the Broligarchy

Three months ago, I warned we were entering the age of technoauthoritarianism. It's now here. We can and must fight back.

Gorgeous spring Saturday bike ride down the lanes.

We need to change the way of things. The world is in such a precarious state, we have to declare our allegiance to what is right, not to what is traditionally expected of us. We need to immediately realign ourselves to our European neighbours & call out the vile, tawdry dealings of Trumps America.

1. Here are just a few of the ways in which Starmer’s Labour Party seems determined to alienate its voters and lose the next election. As they pile up, you have to keep pinching yourself and asking, “what the hell is it playing at?” 🧵

Clumber Park ford today.

Very muddy walk down the river Smite. Sun beaming and the wheat just coming through in neat rows. Feels like spring is not too far away. Everywhere is so so wet though.

Sunrise - 5k run around the lanes.

Fabulous 7 mile walk in the woods at Clumber Park National Trust site. Utterly beautiful.😻

Muddy 5k run down to the river - sun just rising. Not so cold today

As Rachel Reeves has rightly emphasised, Britain can't afford to let the disabled keep holding billionaires back

Today’s muddy, cold walk. The Grantham canal and a castle in a hill. England in the depths of winter is mostly shades of grey, brown and some green.

Early Sunday 5k run. Nice sunrise. 🌅

Beaut morning 2 degrees C (thereabouts) but sun shining. My 3 mile walking route to town today 😊

The next four years is just going to be a long series of people confidently telling you that you didn't just see what you just saw
