The UK government didn't want you to see this report on ecosystem collapse. I'm not surprised | George Monbiot It took an FOI request to bring this national security assessment to light. For β€˜doomsayers’ like us, it is the ultimate vindication, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

I like Burnham but the general positioning of this (not by you!) as some kind of altruistic move to "save the seat" is extraordinary. He's jostling for his own position and creating a lose-lose for Starmer. If he hadn't been blocked it would have been months of manoeuvring. It's all v bloody painful

Oh, no! I listen to these. The narrator has got quite a...unique style, but I really enjoy them. I'll have to try the BBC ones too

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.

There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.

This is my favorite guide.

There really has. Sorry about your family. It's so hard and frustrating. I have friends and colleagues who are just unknowing about it, "not really into politics" and, like yours, just get swept along by the most arresting headline - which is always some crap from the daily mail

Yep. Liked hearing BBC refer to "Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner in Ukraine" rather than this "envoy" nonsense.

Russian puppets, son-in-law and real-estate guy.

God help Ukraine.
