Boils my piss that that absolute moron has some trash space craft hitting our fucking moon. #SpaceXhitsmoon
FFS we cannot keep doing this… A handful of the richest people hoovering up wealth from everyone else while quite literally making the planet unlivable At what point does someone grow a fucking spine and do something?!
Austerity is a political choice, is a lie.
Richard Murphy@richardjmurphy.bsky.social · yesterdayMuch of what is said about economics is little better than gaslighting.... I used AI tools when writing this post, including a spell checker. I also used 50 years of experience writing about these issues. The drawing was the smallest part of all that, and I had no budget to do it any other way.
It never ceases to amaze me how badly let down we are by our thoroughly bent media.
Across the country, wildfires are raging. The Prime Minister needs to call a COBRA meeting and treat the climate crisis with the urgency this moment calls for.
Is “pragmatic” the new, “grown up” word? Andy, there’s nothing “pragmatic” about drilling for more oil & gas - to even consider it with the planet literally on fire is total madness. How many times must we say it will do nothing for energy bills or security? It would be an act of utter recklessness

PM tells reporters the government cannot ignore the energy resource ‘when people are struggling’

For years, Telegraph columnists told us climate breakdown is a hoax. Now they say: it's real, but it's too late to do anything about it, so let the bodies pile high (again). Just one long list of excuses not to reduce fossil fuel use. Such newspapers bear as much responsibility as the oil firms.
We can easily find out why Boy George identifies with Israel.
It’s not like we haven’t had inter-generational warning!
Wealth taxes. Rent controls. Action on climate. And a pretty huge crowd ready for hope with a plan for real change. Join.greenparty.org.uk
Terrifying to see wildfires raging through Scotland. The climate crisis isn't a distant threat - it's right here and right now. How many warning signs and alarm bells until Andy Burnham takes action to end oil and gas drilling?
At the moment, no I don't believe so. But the vast majority of wildfires are caused by humans, whether through neglect, or carelessness etc and given the current state of our climate and ongoing long term dry spells, to me it makes sense to implement permanent bans now.
Devastated looking at & reading about all the wild fires in Cairngorms, Spain, France. It’s all so terrifying, heart breaking. The little hope there is, is that everyone will follow what Spain are doing with ‘national pact against the climate emergency’ - now’s the time we all do this. #wildfires
I think we're at stage 4, for possibly the fourth time? I wonder how many more times we'll get to around...?
The greatest global threat to both peace and a habitable planet is the government of the USA. It has been so for a long time, but Trump has nixed the deniability. We should stop treating it as an ally that has mysteriously gone astray and start treating it as a hazard to be avoided and contained.
I've always said i would welcome Labour when they do the right thing, and today's business relief for venues and pubs is a welcome respite for an industry at the heart of our communities.
Tinkering at the edges is not going to cut it - nor is refusing to stand up to Donald Trump. We need rent controls, a wealth tax and a huge investment in renewables. Otherwise - it's looking like continuity Starmer. m.youtube.com/watch?v=vquH...

While we've been living through extreme heat, wildfires and climate disruption, Equinor made £8.6bn in 3 months. Now Equinor and Shell want the go-ahead for the climate-wrecking Rosebank oil field. Andy, stop Rosebank and tax polluters. Protect our future, not private profit.
