Most of the media reflects neither reality nor public opinion. It reflects the views and demands of those who own it: the Oligarch Class. They employ editors and journalists to channel their demands and sell their fictions. Hence the endless attacks on net zero. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

If you don’t want Britain dragged into another war, sign and share: 38d.gs/Iran_SMC_BSK1
Do not allow the USA to use British military bases for strikes on Iran, and give MPs a vote in Parliament.
I just signed the campaign calling to tell Prime Minister Keir Starmer: do not allow the USA to use British military bases for strikes on Iran
38d.gs
Did you vote to go to war with Iran? Because right now, UK military bases are being used to support US strikes - without a vote in Parliament. We’ve seen where this road leads. Another endless conflict. More instability. More lives lost.
Now there is hope! It's no longer a choice between grim and grimmer. We can vote for who we want and win. Anywhere. It's just one constituency, but the Green victory in Gorton and Denton is an electric shock to our political system.
HOPE WINS @greenpartyhan.bsky.social People-power has sailed the Greens to victory. This is proof that when we get organised, we win. A vision of a world where everyone can thrive is more powerful than the far right’s hatred and division. And far more popular. 🧵
