Pro-Orbán “propaganda mouthpiece” MCC was awarded £57m in dividends from Hungary’s state oil company MOL just before the election. MCC was previously gifted 10% stake in MOL by Orbán’s govt in 2020, worth over $1.3bn. MCC then used this 💵 to push Orbán’s ideas. MCC also has close links to Reform UK
URGENT:8 activists, including 2 female climate defenders, were arrested today at NEMA headquarters while delivering a petition to save the critically important Lwera wetland. Silencing the voices of those who protect our environment is an injustice to us all. #FreeTheDefenders #SaveLwera

Reform UK says if elected they'll slash taxes & restrictions for fossil fuel companies, grant new #OilAndGas licences, scrap net zero policies, support fracking & new coal mines. In 2024, almost half Reform’s donations were linked to climate denial & fossil fuel interests

The entire world is inspired by your braverly- the 12 members of Students Against EACOP Uganda currently on remand for protesting East African Crude Oil Pipeline
“This scheme cries out for judicial scrutiny. Seconding employees from powerful corporations to the Foreign Office or other ministries & vice versa is a recipe for potential serious conflicts of interest... Both Shell & BAE Systems have been accused of human rights violations...," Nicholas Hildyard
Nigel Farage & #ReformUK are in the pockets of the #FossilFuels industry. Now Reform has opened floodgates to dark money in UK politics by being the 1st party to accept crypto donations.

The criticism from X-creters about Bluesky as an "echo chamber" are funny.
1. They exist in echo chambers and won the election
2. People agree about facts in many areas, how rockets are made, whether you need gasoline or water in your gas tank to make your car go. Sometimes, it's just reality.
