This is what a large amount of people want to see. They may not always voice it, thanks to pressure on public discourse from the media but it’s growing & growing.

I’ve been waiting years to hear this message from someone wanting my vote.

Anyone given to doubting the existence of a political establishment can witness the avalanche of smears descending on the Green Party from all parts of the media right now.

It's like they all got the same email telling them what to print and post.

They might as well just ban voting.

The UK government didn't want you to see this report on ecosystem collapse. I'm not surprised | George Monbiot It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For ‘doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.
