Climate change is here, its killing our neighbours but most of Britain's media is passionate about extracting more oil and causing more harm. We need to put newspapers who love oil but hate our children in the bin!

Almost £70 billion in profit in just 3 months is obscene when the climate is in crisis. The fossil fuel industry should be forced to pay for transforming to renewable energies. www.theguardian.com/business/ng-...

Revealed: major oil firms make $93bn profits amid war and climate crisis

Iran conflict windfall over three months reignites calls for companies ‘cashing in on human misery’ to pay for environmental damage

America isn't like this because Trump is president, Trump is president because America is like this.

Donald Trump, The Republican party, Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin are the Axis of Pure Evil.

How the hell have journalists allowed Farage and Yusuf to pretend that their Royal Navy idea is a ‘humanitarian’ mission if ‘innocent’ immigrants are taken back to France, but a full-scale war-like ‘invasion’ of ‘illegals’ if coming our way? I mean, seriously. Please don’t be this hopeless…

Fossil fuel industries get an estimated 7 trillion in subsidies. We are paying for our own mass death and destruction.

Why mustn't we speak ill of the dead ? I have never seen the point of that. Beatifying anyone who dies is such nonsense. He was an vile person. We are much better off without him polluting the media space.

You need to match population growth with reservoir construction, whilst also ensuring 150 yr old infrastructure is maintained and replaced….. and we decided it was all a bit expensive to do that, and we would rather give the funds in dividends to shareholders

I'm loving the Americans struggling to understand the concept that 96% of the world's population isn't American or live in America. It really explains so much about America.

Congo Chris Philp claming on the news this morning that small boat crossings are down "because of big waves" that he'd been told about by a fisherman after months of heatwave and some of the calmest weather in years... Why do these fools lie when their lies are so easily disproved?

What I really want to hear Burnham say is that awful, evil politicians have been fearmongering and weaponising the whole issue of immigration, in a way that causes everyone harm. He doesn’t even need to mention that Starmer was one of them.

Someone needs to be making the case for the benefits of migration. The whole Brexit debacle was founded on xenophobia.

14 Nuclear Reactors in 6 countries in Europe are closed because they have run out of water for cooling. Nuclear Power is no solution, Solar and Wind ARE.

I will keep bringing it back to this, because it's wild not to. British journalists are wildly right wing because they are selected by a system overwhelmingly run by wild right wingers. Their conception of normal is horrifically skewed.

The Dacre dynasty: how Britain’s rightwing press was radicalised

The long read: Paul Dacre broke new ground in selling readers an angry rightwing perspective. Today, most of Fleet Street is run by his disciples

Every single second, the world hands $6,000 to the fossil fuel industry in subsidies. That’s $5 TRILLION every year. Renewables? Barely a fraction of that. We are literally paying to cook our own planet. When does this madness stop? 🌍💸 #ClimateCrisis #FossilFuels

Our world is a tinderbox as we approach 1.5C above preindustrial temps. We’re locked in for at least 2C, & on track for 4C in our children’s ‘lifetimes’. Tumbleweeds as we wait for governments, the media & the public to provide a proportionate response to this information.

"First they came for the EU. Then the ECHR. They say leaving both will mean taking back control. It’s all lies. What they actually plan to take away is 100+ years of hard won worker’s rights, children’s rights, women’s rights, HUMAN rights, all of which make YOUR life better." via We Demand UK

We could have had this 10 years ago and avoided the disaster of Brexit if the media had done its job right. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺

There is no evidence of intelligent life in Reform.

It's no longer just a passing #heatwave; it's a persistent state, made more than five times more likely by the impact of human-driven #climatechange. @climatecentral.org

The catastrophic devastation of Gaza and daily massacre of Palestinians demand immediate international ownership and moral reckoning.

I was not informed by the BBC that they would have a right wing political figure or lobbyist on after me to rebut what I said. The individual in question went on to spout lies about China, etc. to distract attention from the Trump administration's assault on climate action. This is unacceptable.

I'll be on BBC News television TODAY ~3:40pm ET (8:40pm London local time) to discuss--what else---the climate change-fueled weather extremes we're seeing around the world this summer. Please join me: www.bbc.com/live

😎🪴🌵 There are alternatives to coal, gas, and oil. And there are alternatives to data centers, but there are no alternatives to clean air and clean drinking water

Brighton has been truly parched, and meanwhile water infrastructure crumbles. In 37 years since privatisation, not one new major reservoir for England. In the 35 years before that, nearly 100 major reservoirs were created. The new PM must renationalise water as a matter of urgency.

France hitting a record 91,000 hectares burned before August even arrives proves western Europe's climate collapse is moving far faster than policy. Diluting green targets during an inferno is pure cowardice. ​Are we underestimating the speed of this collapse? 🔥 #ClimateCrisis

Suffolk fire. Now a major incident "due to the size and complexity" of the blaze - area about the size of 140 football pitches. RSPB says it could take 25 years for the heathland to recover. No risk to Sizewell apparently. Via BBC News

On average, a woman is killed by a man every 3 days in the UK. Over 93% of domestic abuse and violence offenses against women are committed by men. An estimated 2.2 million women experience domestic abuse annually. Roughly 2,880 domestic abuse calls are made to police across the UK every 24 hours.

After 17 and a half years today is my last day working in the NHS. I've worked under 12 Health secretaries. Every single one made it harder for us to look after patients and pursued an agenda of privatisation and outsourcing. The NHS thrives in spite of, not because of it’s political leadership.

People who say "we" when talking about a sports team: You're not in the team, you didn't do anything other than sit on your arse shouting at the telly.
