Natural gas (methane) comes with natural benzene. Right into your home for no extra cost. Financial cost, that is.
"it is generally considered that the only absolutely safe concentration for benzene is zero."

The Home Office is inept and immoral, and the ground zero of anti Black racism in the UK.

ICE has been using a Navy logistics contract to outfit detention warehouses with minimal oversight. New documents show it may want its own construction contracting vehicle — one that's faster and less transparent.

NEW: DNI Tulsi Gabbard was reportedly not invited to a White House meeting on the Iran war. But, as I report in my OUR LAND newsletter, she's waging her own war on the truth to serve Trump's revenge fantasies—and it could affect the future of American democracy.

No pay wall.
I dunno… if Mahmood got sacked for this then that might give Labour a much-needed boost at the local elections.
Well let's see how this strategy of telling "white liberals" to "fuck right off" works out in the local elections

Any comment?
Though not.
Ed Miliband has said he'll “double down, not back down” on government’s clean energy mission in the face of critics calling on him to change course
The Energy Sec said "solar panels, heat pumps and EVs are not woke, or a left-wing conspiracy, or even a Marxist plot. They're actually common sense"
Good. It’s easy to forget that climate change denial & shilling for fossil fuel companies provided a template for Tufton Street, Brexit & pretty much every egregious example of persuading populations to vote against their own interests. The story of Don Pearlman should be taught in kindergartens…
Kyiv.
A short moment my camera captured today.
I absolutely love it.
Life.
My (nurse) mum used to make us alternate between ice water and warm water - the latter feels like it's burning hot, so the whole thing's like torture, but she swore it minimised swelling if done in the first few hours.
Journalists planning to honor Trump at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner have a choice:
A. Party with the dictator, wear fancy clothes and network to boost their careers.
B. Stand up for democracy by staying home.
They’re going to choose A. It looks terrible now. It will look worse to history.

With its last contract expiring, activists say garage owners should spurn ICE to avoid becoming complicit in Trump’s deportation blitz.
Meanwhile Farage of continual tax avoiding reform continues a close relationship with Epstein files Pedo no2 Trump, and the media (who are are rabid for Starmer/Mandelson) willfully ignore it🤷♀️
Perhaps its hypocrisy at best, but most likely its collusion at its worst!

Larry Johnson - a retired CIA analyst - claimed Trump tried to access nuclear codes but was stopped by the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Just in case you didn't know, Martina Navratilova is vile and unhinged. She's using the exact same defamatory lies she faced when she came out
134 years ago this cartoon was drawn, and in 134 years the problem has only gotten worse.

Going to correct the ‘misspeaks’?
Guess not.
Are the BBC going to take any action? I got bored of complaining and getting nowhere but may have to make an exception here.
She's already had to flee to Australia after the harassment and abuse from the GC crowd.

Still standing by Rowling and her deadnaming Dr Upton?
Or is that not transphobia any more?
They're trying to push Dr Upton over the brink. Actively pursuing her across the globe. Fucking sickening.
They're trying to get her to kill herself.
Also, the case costing the taxpayers £400k resulting in a doctor leaving the country, while the NHS is on its knees, is the fault of TERFs and TERFs alone
The "gender critical" movement will not leave this trans woman alone, even though she has had to relocate to Australia over their bullying.
Marking an LGBT+ person out as a "sexual predator" is how bigots have traditionally endangered LGBT+ people.
Tweet by Martina Navratilova. "Predator. That is how he should register. A sexual predator…" quote-tweeting a tweet by "Biology Rules OK" about Dr. Beth Upton, a trans woman
This tweet is highly defamatory and Martina Navratilova should be fired from BBC Sport for it.
It demonstrates an horrendous level of hatred for a trans woman (who was cleared of all wrongdoing in a recent tribunal) because she is a trans woman.
