There is no politician - and I mean none - who is better-placed than Ed Miliband to get us through this fossil fuel-driven energy crisis.

I'm happy to do that as a non-believer myself!! I find the whole Easter resurrection narrative really weird, and the oppression of women by the Christian patriarchy evil!

I dont blame them. Scotland overwhelmingly voted to Remain and they were dragged out of the EU by Westminster!!

No surprises - most women can spot a grifter, creepy, exploitative, abusive man a mile away - those that cant will sadly vote Reform.

Read these words from 100 years ago about immigrants in Britain – and see how history is chillingly repeating itself | George Monbiot Shabana Mahmood’s new rights clampdown looks outlandish until we remember that this kind of hardline action is part of our country’s fabric, says George Monbiot
