Petition: Defend BBC independence from Trump’s interference Stop Trump Coalition

Please sign this petition against the unwarranted interference in our independent media by Donald Trump (I have).
Our government should not capitulate to this form of pressure, and we should know what pressure they put on the BBC.

I've signed

Conservatives and Reform UK want to take away our freedoms - Labour act like they couldn't care less.
Thank goodness for all the other parties...

Yesterday, the largest far-right protest in UK history marched through London, led by racist Tommy Robinson.

Today, we say: They don’t speak for us — and they won’t have the last word.

This Wednesday we come together against Trump and for a better future. Do everything to be there.

Every man is like the company he keeps.
- Latin proverb

Nigel's choices of company to keep show a very clear (and heavily denied) pattern. Methinks he doth protest too much.

And, of course, if it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, it IS a duck.

Take a look.

Thank you.
Missing you and hoping y'all are well.

Here's that US politician giving an honest character reference to Nigel Farage.
Time for UK journalists and politicians to step up too.

Well said @eddavey.libdems.org.uk
This week we heard an American politician challenge Nigel Farage on many points (including why aren't you at work today in parliament), but in the UK journalists and politicians don't challenge his lies and hypocrisy.

The atrocities in Gaza must stop, hostages be returned, and a peaceful way forward established.

Kudos to @eddavey.libdems.org.uk for making the point that Trump must act, in concert with Starmer and all other leaders.

Take a look at what Ed says.

The green transition has a surprising new home Forget about northern Europeans, with their coalition governments and love of cycling

Good News!
The Economist reports that the green transition is racing ahead in the global south (outstripping Europe). It's driven by economics
- renewable energy is cheaper
- and it's home grown releasing valuable foreign currency that was used to import oil

A thoughtful and well researched report on why burning wood for power (and heat) is a poor choice.
For instance,
- if you think biomass is renewable, maybe you're right, but it takes 60-120 years for the emitted CO2 to be recaptured. In the meantime its an emitter. We can't afford that.

Why did you choose only to allow a credit card for verification? I only have a debit card. KWS can use a debit card for verification. Why won't BlueSky allow that too?

TalkTV is airing attacks on trans people without broadcasting the views of those who support trans rights. Call on Ofcom to be a regulator and take action on this flagrant rule-breaking. The BBC is vilified for much less than this : goodlaw.social/66f6a3

@edmilibandmp.bsky.social The country is counting on you and your department to #StopRosebank once and for all.
We can't afford the CO2 and other emissions from its oil - for the climate or our health.
It will do nothing for our energy security or energy costs.

Make it clear #NoMoreOilAndGas

BREAKING 🚨: We've just dropped a massive banner off Westminster Bridge to demand the UK Government #StopRosebank

It's time for Keir Starmer make the right choice 👀

Bring back the ancient woodlands smothered beneath your timber plantations Ancient woodlands are vanishing – and with them, some of our most loved and endangered wildlife. Forestry England manages over 100,000 acres of land that used to be ancient woodland - that’s bigger th...

🌳 Native woodlands can replace conifer plantations if we act now.

Dame Judi Dench is calling for the return of ancient woodlands.

Name our Storms

Creative protest opportunity...

The Met Office is currently looking for people to suggest up to 5 names for storms.
It would be great if we all suggested the same 5 names:
BigOil, BP, Equinor, Exxon, Shell.

The climate centre is barking mad The climate movement will fail if it doesn't respect both political and physical realities

“you can’t claim to solve an intractable political problem by invoking imaginary scientific solutions.”

Reform wants expensive ⚡️electricity⚡️Do you?

Of course you don't. But that's not stopping them from trying to force it on you.

Their opposition to everything net zero means they don't like cheap electricity for you (renewables are cheapest). They want costly power.

#ReformHatesCheapElectricity

#CarSpreading

And why does it need to be parked on the pavement?

If it's unsafe to park on the road because it might get scratched, then park elsewhere.

Look - there's another one behind it on the other side of the road!

Police ticketed this behaviour near us recently ❤️

Google battling ‘fox infestation’ on roof of £1bn London office Foxes have ‘begun to dig burrows’ in soil of rooftop garden at the as yet unopened King’s Cross headquarters

Foxes of the decade?

Well done these foxes.
The rooftop garden was apparently designed for wildlife and now has foxes - mission accomplished!

Ban rule-breaking peers from the House of Lords. Lords found guilty of serious misconduct – like bullying or lobbying for cash – still get to make our laws. I just signed a petition to kick rule-breaking peers out of the Lords for good. Want to add...

Sign the petition: Say No to second jobs for MPs I just signed the campaign calling to for MPs to be banned from having second jobs. Will you join me and add your name?

📢 Being an MP is a full time job. Many of our MPs think so too & put a lot of effort into serving us. But a small, rotten, minority take our money and do little work for it.
I signed the petition calling on the Government to ban 2nd jobs for MPs. Please sign too act.38degrees.org.uk/act/ban-mps-...

I've signed this open letter calling on the Prime Minister to give more time for the #CANBill debate—and deliver the #REALChange we need.

Sign the petition: Block Thames Water bonuses Thames Water bosses are cashing in on a £3bn emergency bailout - while pipes leak and bills rise. Stop bonuses for failure. Sign the petition now to get the Government to step in: 👇

How can Thames Water bosses get bonuses when the business is failing? It's massively in debt, failing to provide services, and looking for OfWat to cut it some breaks.

Stop bonuses for failure. I've signed this petition to ask the Government to step in: act.38degrees.org.uk/act/thames-w...

Kick Big Oil Out of Plastics Talks Fossil fuel companies want to keep flooding our home with plastic for profit. They’re trying to block action to tackle plastic pollution - we must stop them.

I've signed a petition calling on the UN to ban fossil fuel lobbyists from the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations. Companies like Shell make billions turning oil and gas into plastic - they’re trying to sabotage the talks and block real action on plastic pollution. Let’s stop them! act.gp/3YxOUXa

Stand up for trans rights 🏳️‍⚧️

Join me and @GoodLawProject and help us fight the Supreme Court’s harmful decision:https://goodlawproject.org/s/c41bb8

The decision (which is hard to reconcile with other legislation) has opened the door for haters despite the Supreme Court's plea to the contrary.

❌ This is abhorrent as it is chilling. Many climate, environment and grassroots groups meet in #Quaker Meeting Houses—including Zero Hour. This aggressive violation of a place of worship must be called out. This is about freedoms of speech, assembly, public debate—the very basis of our democracy.

YouTube video by Zero Hour: Climate and Nature Bill 🌿 Steve Reed MP on Climate and Nature Bill | Environmental Audit Committee, 24 March 2025

🌍 Steve Reed wanted the Climate & Nature Bill to proceed. Ed Miliband promised to work on the #CANBill's objectives. Mary Creagh pledged to deliver “binding nature commitments”.

🚨 Labour Ministers are speaking out.

⏳ What’s the delay for new, joined-up, science-led climate and nature legislation?
