Hundreds of antifascists took to the streets of Manchester this weekend to challenge the fascist organisation Britain First.

The problem with a cabal of child rapists blackmailing a very large percentage of British and American politicians is what has lead to this.

What does a blackmailing operation of a cabal of child rapists have to do with Climate News?

Well, these blackmailers are heavily and extensively involved and invested in the fossil fuel industry, all across the world.

This is my favourite graphic.

It's incredible how far DAYTIME solar has already come with almost no batteries.

Just think how this will change with batteries, when instead of daytime solar, we get DISPATCHABLE solar.

The solar boom is only just starting...

Almost half of EU’s busiest flight routes are ‘hard or impossible’ to book on trains – report ‘Stone age’ system of booking cross-border rail tickets holding back climate action by consumers, says thinktank

Guardian today about my topic - railway ticketing www.theguardian.com/environment/...

It's largely a copy-paste of this press release from @transportenvironment.org www.transportenvironment.org/articles/fla...

The report is solid on the WHY, less good on the HOW to fix these problems

🧵 (1/11)

I don't buy this argument - from T&E, ALLRAIL - that because customers know incumbents (DB Navigator, SNCF Connect etc.) those must be forced to sell *everything*

Trainline, Omio, Railfinder are not good enough to recommend YET because they're deprived of data! Give them data, their market grows!

China exported a record $21.9b in solar, batteries and EVs in March 2026

March 2026 renewables numbers are in, and it's China winning the export game.

More than a decade teaching at the College of Europe, ended by email I have been teaching at the College of Europe in Bruges for more than 10 years, but this academic year will be my last. Today I was sacked by email. The College of Europe has a kind of "flying faculty...

After teaching at @collegeofeurope.bsky.social more than a decade, my course was summarily cancelled by email, ending my work, and without a word of thanks

Unlike other underlings in a passive-aggressive environment, I have a voice - my blog, and this blog post euroblog.jonworth.eu/more-than-a-...

Modernising the EU’s rail ticketing regulation How to streamline passenger rail travel across Europe

I feel like I’m losing my mind with this forthcoming EU rail ticketing reform (SDBTR)

So many people - including T&E today - have fundamental misconceptions about it www.transportenvironment.org/articles/mod...

Or am I the one getting it wrong?

Did Nazi Germany have a right to defend itself when it invaded most of its neighbours and kept people from a specific religion in concentration camps?

a bullet train

cant believe i gotta go back to australian public transport after this

Imagine telling all car drivers who work as managers at Eurostar who wish to leave a car park that they need to arrive WITH THEIR CAR at the exit 30 minutes before they wish to exit.

Let the Eurostar management arseholes feel this madness for themselves while they sit on their stupid arses.

A load of useless information from Eurostar

These Eurostar emails a day before your train are 🤦‍♂️

What is the most useful information to know?
- WHEN does the train depart?
- WHAT seats are reserved?
- HOW do I get my ticket QR code*?

Does the email contain that information?

NO!

The train is 09:46 […]

Keanu and Sandra stuck on a cruise ship that has to stay at 55 knots through the strait

A Régiolis and a Nez Csssé

So I’m stuck. Accident at Pont sur Yonne. But SNCF is holding everything back at Laroche Migennes. It’s 90km to cycle to where there are trains…

China: peace now, open the Strait of Hormuz now!

USA: no thanks we enjoy war and we want to destroy the lives of everyone on the planet

On my way by high speed train from Shanghai to Hangzhou. Seriously fast. 🚄

I see some people are annoyed DB boss Palla is against re-introducing the #9euroTicket

OF COURSE she would be!

It means MORE passengers and hence MORE work and likely LESS income for DB Regio

In decisions like this DB is obviously not going to do what passengers want, but what DB wants!

Finland ends homelessness and provides shelter for all in need - scoop.me In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Why? The country applies the "Housing First" concept agains homelessness.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back to a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

IT SAVES PUBLIC MONEY to house people.

Israeli army investigates soldier seen striking Jesus statue in Lebanon IDF says sledgehammer image circulating online is authentic and is being viewed with ‘great severity’

We all know why the IDF is taking this seriously. It's because most Zionists in the world, are neither Israeli nor Jewish, but Christians in the US. This will not go down well with Israel's core support.

FINANCIAL TIMES Russia Interview. Russian economy is faltering despite oil windfall, Sweden warns

Mainstream media finally connecting the dots.

When Ukraine destroys Russia’s oil and gas infrastructure, it doesn’t matter that sanctions are lifted and the world is gagging for oil and gas.

Why does it take so long for people to connect these basic dots?

THIS!!!
Our unsheltered humans need *and* deserve it!

Labour is no longer a party on the left of British politics.

Under Labour the children of Holocaust survivors are being rounded up and arrested for daring to peacefully protest against Israel.

Far right fascism in plain sight.

Nu iedereen de straat van Hormuz in de gaten houdt, zoom ff uit op de vesselfinder-kaart en besef hoeveel van deze schepen fossiele brandstoffen vervoeren. Wek energie lokaal op, dan ben je van een hoop vervuiling, klimaatontwrichting en geopolitieke drama's verlost. www.vesselfinder.com/nl

I remember seeing a provisional Kemi 🇫🇮 - Tornio 🇫🇮 - Haparanda 🇸🇪 train timetable (for when it opens this summer) a few weeks ago, but now I can’t find it

Have you seen it @sebwilken.net @lennydunord.bsky.social ?

$402 million upgrade of New Haven's train station will expand platforms, add atrium & canopy The atrium and canopy would protect travelers from the elements but allow light in through extensive windows, skylights & a glass end enclosure

Admittedly did not have "CTDOT wants to put a full canopy over New Haven Union Station" on my bingo card. Feels like more of a nice to have than a necessity, but I'm open to being won over.

How to stop fascism and the far right.

In a nutshell: offer voters a non-establishment eco-left alternative that *genuinely* stands for people and planet.

It's not complicated.
