Unsurprisingly the billionaire owned, fossil-fuel-friendly UK news media over-represents negativity towards #NetZero. To get the truth on the climate #VoteGreen. To get the urgent action we all know is needed on the #ClimateCrisis: #VoteGreenInBrum on May 7.
5 weeks until polling day in #Birmingham and the Greens are surging in the polls showing we're only ones who can defeat Reform. On May 7 #VoteGreen in Birmingham. #VoteGreenInBrum #GreenParty
Hannah will be an excellent MP and a brilliant representative for her community. The Labour vote is collapsing in Gorton and Denton. This is Green Vs Reform. Help us get Hannah elected! 💚👇 donatetothe.greenparty.org.uk/parliamentar...

Newmarket MP Matt Hancock gave a £37bn Covid testing contract to Jockey Club director Dido Harding, who subcontracted it to Grand National sponsor Randox, employer of Tory MP Owen Paterson, whose late wife chaired Aintree racecourse. That's how the Tories handled the pandemic.
The "Dominic Cummings is a genius" types were worse than Dominic Cummings because they enabled Dominic Cummings. The "Boris Johnson is a genius" types were worse than Boris Johnson because they enabled Boris Johnson. Now go away and write that out a thousand times.

And this👇🏼experience of a Front Line Doctor from when COVID hit is why Michelle Mone bleating about being hit in her pocket for supplying faulty PPE is even more nauseating.. I’ve met cleaners who are more worthy to be a Baroness than that self serving old bag
Dr Rachel Clarke@drrachelclarke.com · 10mo agoI was given masks whose ear loops fell off & aprons so flimsy they ripped apart when you tried to put them on, Michelle. Nurses and porters in our hospital died from the Covid they caught there, Michelle. How dare you try to bleat victimisation now, Michelle?
If you want to see Michelle Mone kicked out of the House of Lords and arrested until she pays the £232,000,000 she owes give this a RT. If you want Rishi Sunak's involvement in the £14,900,000,000 PPE Fraud he covered up investigated, LIKE.
They want to leave the ECHR because it will allow them to abolish the State Pension, the Minimum Wage, paid holiday and sick leave. It would make them tens of billions a year. But of course they say immigration, because they can't tell you the real reason.

Netanyahu accusing Iran of targeting civilian homes in Israel whilst he's orchestrating an actual genocide on livestream... I have no words.
We have plenty of reasons to be in the streets today. But one big one is we’re marching because Rep. Melissa Hortman can’t. We’re sending love to her family, and we’re sending rage toward Washington, D.C.
Marching for Minnesota
A violent attack on two Democratic lawmakers reminds us why we’re marching

Farage wanting to bring back coal mining in Wales shows how little he understands the working class. It's not mining coal that the area wants. Coal mining is filthy and dangerous. It's the well paid jobs and sense of community that coal mining created. The Dulwich educated posh boy hadn't a clue.

We have to stand tall with our allies in Canada and Europe against Trump's tariffs and show that Britain will not be bullied. That means preparing potential tariffs including on Elon Musk's Teslas, and urgently negotiating a better trade deal with the EU.
Marine Le Pen has got four years in jail. Now do Nigel Farage.
To insult two highly respected and free thinking politicians like this is disgraceful. It just shows how far standards in society have fallen. Anyone reposting this insulting photograph should feel utterly ashamed. 😡

The window is an exceptional piece of stained glass artistry, with its gorgeous Pre-Raphaelite figures and intensely vibrant colours.
This stained-glass depiction of Gabriel and Mary was designed by John Pollard Seddon (not Sedding), who helped to restore the church in the 1860s and 1870s. The design is said to have been derived from a cartoon by H.A. Kennedy. 📷 © Lily Watts
Today, March 25th, is the Feast of the Annunciation, commemorating the Angel Gabriel’s visit to the Virgin Mary to announce that she would bear the Christ child. One of the most popular subjects in Christian art, there are depictions of the Annunciation in two of our churches.
Can I ask,, Is anyone round Sheffield still getting access to Creon Capsules ? TIA Bill.
