🧵A political/media guide to the "truth" about net-zero
1) Add up costs to install & run a net-zero energy system
2) Pretend fossil-fuelled alternatives wld be free
3) Do say "eco zealots are bankrupting us"
4) Don't say "free cars if we scrap net-zero" cos it sounds ridiculous
5) That's it!

This is one of our favorites!
No 10 might be insisting that the PM still has full confidence in his chief of staff Morgan Mcsweeny, but Labour MPs certainly don't - below is a picture being shared among the PLP

When will any BBC journalist challenge the lies and hypocrisy that Farage and Reform speak? There are so many examples of their "double speak" yet no challenge. What has happened to journalists and probing questions? The BBC just seem to repeat what Reform say.
Ocado handed out 221 million plastic bags last year! 😱 Sign the petition and tell them to ditch single-use bags for good. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/oc...
This week Nigel Farage learned what he must have long suspected: that there is nothing so disgusting that he can’t say it for fear of being challenged by the Prime Minister. THREAD
The BBC news is completely in thrall to the far right.

Am I wrong, but didn't this Northampton childminder call for children to be burned alive?
"I was Keir Starmer's political prisoner?"
"Really? And what politics got you imprisoned?"
"I publicly advocated for vulnerable people to be burned alive"
For a European Union that had been buffeted by a decade of negative stories from the Eurozone to mass migration, Brexit has, perhaps surprisingly, turned into something of a boost.

This man is a Conservative MP and former No.10 adviser.
🔴 NEW - Reform has now admitted that Zia Yusuf’s big ‘local waste’ claims are nonsense
Turns out Farage’s DOGE genius hit ‘tweet’ too soon...
Given that she was The Foreign Secretary at the time of the leak, what exactly is she shocked about?!
Our latest letter in yesterday’s Yorkshire Post, also correcting a previous letter. There is a typo, so just to clarify Winston Churchill, Nigel Farages children, Harry Kane, Ben Stokes, Mark Francois, Jim Davidson and the actual King would NOT qualify as British under Goodwin’s definition…
Michelle Mone shows the hypocrisy of the UK, loots hundreds of millions of Pounds, nothing happens.
But if you steal a tin of beans, straight to jail.
Anyone else on here sickened to the core by how much the media fawn over the cesspit that is Reform??? 🤢🤬😤
‘Now, poll after poll confirms what most of us feel: Brexit was a mistake.’

Yesterday Mark Carney was told, “Mr Carney, there’s a genocide in Palestine”.
“I’m aware,” Carney told the protester, “That’s why we have an arms embargo.”
This has really, really upset Benjamin Netanyahu, so don't RT unless you hate him.
The House of Lords must stand up for democracy and stop the local elections being cancelled for five million voters in May. Add your name to our letter. secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/168284/...
At a time of international turmoil, insecurity, weak economy and war in Europe it is ludicrous and a failure of government’s duty of care to be focusing on cuts elsewhere and not to be taxing the super rich and tax avoiders as well as rejoining the SM and CU.

Let’s. Do. This. ✨
That’s not quite the selling point he seems to think it is.
Meanwhile Brewdog is off my purchasing list

A photo of the front cover of issue 1644 of Private Eye magazine with the caption "on shelves now." The headline reads "KING AGREES TO HOST TRUMP VISIT". The cover features a photograph of UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer and King Charles III walking together. Speech bubbles add dialogue to the image: Starmer says, "Give him a welcome fit for a President," to which King Charles replies, "OK, I'll shout at him then boot him out."
King agrees to host Trump visit
The new Private Eye is out now
The boycott is strong and getting stronger every day.
