Paris before and after street transformation
New urban forest planted in front of Paris City Hall
A Paris βSchool Streetβ where cars are removed and people space/tree planting are added
According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150K trees have been planted & 45ha of parks created in the already hot city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to & manage summer heatwaves of 50β (122F) by 2050.
Just the start.
Common sense.

Yes, the "progressive alliance" idea in earlier elections failed, Labour wouldn't even stand aside (or even just not campaign) in Brighton Pavillion. Hence Green policy last time of standing everywhere and campaigning anywhere with a good chance - and successfully

Unless the government introduces PR, there will be a far right government in power in 2029. And like the compliant liberals they always were, the Labour party are building the administrative tools to help those fascists round you and your friends up for deportation. Frightening.

A big part of why white centrist journos can call this a tragedy with a straight face is because to them it is; Kirk etc pose no viable harm to them, their interests, their fetishisation of 'robust debate' and both sidesery - this violence thus feels realer than the violence Kirk's views embodied

For all the years that Linehan had been *obsessively* targeting trans people (such that heβs been in court over it, heβs been warned be police over it, heβs lost his career and family over itβ¦) the media have never shown *any* interest in speaking to his victims. None. Zero. They simply donβt care

Graham Linehan
If a trans-identified male is in a female-only space, he is committing a violent, abusive act. Make a scene, call the cops and if all else fails, punch him in the balls.

The speed with which Labour came to the, at least implied, defence of Linehan, despite a track record of abuse and threats from him, exemplifies just how embedded the dehumanisation of trans and non-binary individuals has become as government policy. They really don't care who gets hurt.
