Tories pledge to scrap landmark climate legislation Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch says her party would axe legally binding targets to cut emissions.

Jane Goodall dies, the Pope condemns climate deniers, and Kemi Badenoch decides today is a good day to say she’d scrap the Climate Change Act.

Economically bonkers, morally bankrupt, out of step with public opinion

Silencing the drumbeat again: seeking asylum is legal Hundreds protested in Ashington against so-called "illegal immigrants" - though seeking asylum has been legal since 1951

Say it again, and again, and again. They are not "illegal immigrants".

-seeking asylum is legal and has been since 1951.

This legally trumps all arguments of β€œbut they arrived by illegal means”. That’s just a fact. That’s why you don’t see asylum seekers arrested & charged. Our MSM must do better.

Here's how the real two-tier Britain works:
1. Whatever Nigel Farage says, however stupid, is looped and discussed by the media, while left-wing voices are treated as noises off.
2. Tiny far-right protests get massive airtime, while 10s of 000s gathering for Palestine or green causes are ignored.🧡

Reform UK, which has a grand total of four MPs, was just given an uninterrupted platform for an hour and a half on the BBC and Sky News channels, in order to talk about its plans for mass deportations

When was the last time the Greens (with four MPs) or the Lib Dems (with 72) were given the same?

80 years ago, the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima.

We remember the thousands who were killed in a crime against humanity, as well as the survivors who carried the pain of the past.

Today, let us honour them by vowing to rid our world of nuclear weapons once and for all.

Not just excess, it’s a system built to keep people hungry so the rich can keep feasting. But the masses are waking up.

'Nigel Farage nails it as he sums up perfectly why UK voters are eyeing Reform' Voters are in no doubt what Nigel Farage stands for but a majority are unclear about what Sir Keir Starmer believes.

Appears humans are too busy behaving like children and lashing out at each other rather than talking to each other and solving the worlds problems. We can forget about dealing with the climate emergency or water and food security. Until leaders grow the fuck up we are totally screwed.

It’s not a β€œsurrender deal” or a β€œbetrayal”. It’s about having a grown up conversation with our closest neighbours. About time right leaning politicians and media grew the fuck up.

Ministers scramble to avoid Labour rebellion on disability benefit cuts Backbenchers may be allowed to abstain, a major climbdown from previous votes when rebels were suspended from the party

If you abstain or are allowed to "miss" the vote on cuts to disability benefits then you are complicit.

This is thuggery from Trump and Vance, plain and simple.

They are bullying the brave true patriot Zelensky into accepting a deal which effectively hands victory to Russia. Unless the UK and Europe step up, we are facing a betrayal of Ukraine.
