Our reflections on a packed screening of the @nebriefing.bsky.social in #Lancaster this week:

♥️ Give space for emotions. The audience was silent as the film ended, processing their mix of emotions. 'Anger', 'frustration' and 'anxious' were named, along with 'hopeful', 'optimistic' and 'activated!'

UN issues new climate warning as El Niño looms The Earth's climate is further out of balance than at any time in recorded history, the UN's weather agency says.

Some people assume symptoms are the only way for humans to wake up to the climate crisis I say that mechanism alone can never be in time but we can do better.
Either way here, probably, comes the biggest dose of symptoms so far. Get ready for an even wobblier world.

We uncovered the redacted climate report the government didn’t want you to see
We uncovered the redacted climate report the government didn’t want you to see YouTube video by ITV News

This ITN piece on the suppressed details of the Joint Intelligence Unit’s report to government on the threat to UK security from biodiversity loss is great journalism. Please Do watch. Gov should explain why this was suppressed. (BBC- where were you?) youtu.be/59DZiPdsOc8

What desperate/ false claims did the Greens make? I wasn’t aware of any. In my patch on the day.

No . And we need to get to the bottom of it. I should have been a bit more careful before accusing Labour

1 month ago 4 0 0 0

Yes. Important to get to the bottom of where this came from.

Agreed. It’s desperate and disgusting from labour . Also this from them today.

So many Greens on the ground today. Quite a bit of Reform too. Not much Labour - except this disgraceful desperate message.

Epstein Files Are Missing Records About Woman Who Made Claim Against Trump

We seem to be nearing the heart of the story, and a lot will depend on the nerve of the journalists--NPR, the NYT, etc--to stay on this story relentlessly. Will they give it the same kind of coverage they gave Biden's age--i.e., full bore, around the clock, 50 opeds?

Just re-reading bits of Peter Oborne's 2005 excellent book 'The Rise of Political Lying'. Back then he called out so many examples of Peter Mandleson's clear cut lies. Now wee see the concequence of tolerating this. Can we, as a society, learn the lesson in time? (btw pls come to BlueSky Peter)

What do you feel is the biggest threat to our national security right now?

The UK Joint Intelligence Committee has released its report on the threat of biodiversity and ecological collapse on national security.

Its a chilling read: assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/696e0e...

The fossil fuel industry is waging an information war, and they're winning. We desperately need influential media voices like @alastaircampbell2.bsky.social & @rory-stewart.bsky.social to give time to trusted independent experts like Professor @mikebernerslee.bsky.social. 🙏
