🚨 NEWS: Sewage spills still choking UK waters..
New Environment Agency data shows a drop in storm overflow spills in 2025. But don’t be fooled.
This isn’t real progress. it’s the result of one of the driest years on record. Less rain = fewer spills. It’s that simple. 1/2. 🧵
In the UK House of Lords I argued that political donations are part of political corruption.
Corporations and super-rich buy influence and power. Possibilities of democracy are stymied.
Can't nave democracy whilst parties are for sale.
Your thoughts pls

on the 24th of Feb, 1966, Kwame Nkrumah, the first president of independent Ghana and co-founder of the Non-Aligned Movement, was deposed in a coup backed by the US and UK. The coup was part of a coordinated effort to destroy socialist and Pan-Africanist movements on the continent.
First Past the Post can no longer deliver real mandates - only chaos. 60% of Brits want it scrapped.
Yet the Representation of the People Bill won’t even touch our voting system, which leaves millions unrepresented.
Tell Keir Starmer to change this.

No more than Monaco being invaded by Billionaires.
Well said, Back.
In nature, everything is connected. To harm one thing is to harm the whole.
Stop the stitch-up! The Government wants to push through water legislation, locking in a failed privatised system for decades without giving the public a say.
I’ve signed the petition to stop this water stitch-up and demand a public consultation. Add your name: actionnetwork.org/petitions/st...
FULL UPDATE!: We learn from the Times in this morning’s paper that indeed as I surmised (see thread below) the Govt >haven’t< released an unredacted version of this bombshell report. What a scandal.

This week we shared our Private Finance briefing with MP at the House of Commons.
It doesn't matter what form of private finance is applied in the NHS. The result is the same - a bonanza for the private sector, at the expense of patient care.

A new world order where the environment takes centre stage and corporate interests are banned.
How undemocratic to just single out the poor. This legislation, if really justified, should apply to all, rich and poor alike.
Personally, I think the roots go back even further to Thatcher and Reagan.
🔴Why Is the Government Really Refusing to Investigate Russian Interference in Brexit?
Keir Starmer’s decision to exclude Russian interference in the EU referendum from his inquiry into foreign interference in UK elections should ring alarm bells, argues Sergei Cristo

Which would leave them more vulnerable to exploitation.
This was one of the best programmes that I have seen on TV in years. In my opinion, it should be shown in every school in the land.

Getting back to a point where 1.5 is achievable is going to be a nigh on impossible challenge. Ideal in principle, but I see little means or any progress in getting there anytime soon.

Rocket stoves are fun, too.
They obviously don't want people to educate themselves and keep informed. They will be banning books next.
😡
Make the Government respond to our call for a National Climate Resilience Plan by signing this petition and then sharing it. We need 10,000 signatures.

It might just come to this.
We also need to find a way of consuming far less. That is the real challenge of our time.
No. It was all part of the package when they took control. They need to ask for their shareholders to chip in, rather than taxpayers.
