Nobel Peace Prize winner Mara Corina Machado supports Israel’s war and Benjamin Netanyahu? Here are the facts Maria Corina Machado had strong political ties with Netanyahu’s Likud party and has said on Twitter that “Venezuela’s struggle is Israel’s struggle” when it comes to the matter of terrorism

"Nobel Peace Prize winner Mara Corina Machado supports Israel’s war and Benjamin Netanyahu? Here are the facts"

I am not making this up. I have checked it out from multiple sources. She seems quite keen on Islamophobic, European fascism too.

Let’s make different political choices.

For decades now British people have been told to simply swallow austerity. They’ve been told that the NHS needs cuts, that libraries need closing and that child poverty can’t be tackled.

Greens say: Bullshit!
Join the Green Party today.

AMOC protest at City Hall 9/10/25

Reef concerns after dredgers filmed in protected seas Scottish government says it's investigating but concerned locals fear enormous damage has been caused

Awful! Vessels were filmed allegedly scallop dredging in a Scottish marine protected area - home to millions of flame shells & the largest known habitat of the species

This destructive fishing is supposed to be banned here?! 😡

Our ocean sanctuaries deserve better.

"A political failure": Half of UK's critical fish stocks face depletion - Oceanographic Oceana UK has accused UK government of abject failure when it comes to sustainably managing critical fish stocks, now facing collapse

“Overfishing is not an unavoidable tragedy – it is a political choice. Ministers ignore the science [...] & our seas are paying the price. Five years after becoming an independent coastal state, the UK seems to have accepted a state of relentless decline.”

The U.K. government has rejected calls to fully ban bottom trawling in its offshore marine protected areas, despite evidence that the fishing practice tears up seabed habitats and releases large amounts of carbon.

Totally agree. (I had to look up 'Chesterson's Fence' and I'm glad I did.)

Hopes at all-time high for Falklands' first offshore development Joint venture partner Rockhopper is optimistic about FID by year end on Sea Lion project

Perhaps plans for the exploitation of the enormous offshore oil reserves?

The Sea Lion oil field holds at least 800m barrels of oil, 2-3 times bigger than Rosebank.

UK govt has an interest as does the Israeli company Navitas.

River Wye: Thousands join UK’s biggest environmental lawsuit

This comes as absolutely no surprise. Except in a few specific hard to abate processes, CCS is a scam, especially LNG/CCS.

What is remarkable is how readily labour and tories alike fell it. Amazing what a few bungs can do.

➕🚗🏭 new calculations show that if all new gas plants with CCS currently proposed by industry were to go ahead - even at a 90% capture rate - they could emit 2.4-5 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions annually, the same as adding 1.3-2.6 million petrol cars per year in the UK.

The UK Oil and Gas Industry's Advocacy on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) New analysis from InfluenceMap suggests that for more than 15 years, the oil and gas industry has systematically pushed the UK government to adopt a costly, emissions-intensive energy policy agenda de...

“I do not support the proscription of Palestine Action”

How that would warrant arrest is very unclear. I wonder if the police here even understand the boundaries of the bizarre law they’ve been forced to enforce.
