The long-term case for renewables get stronger each time tho, given clean-energy prices keep falling and fossil-fuel volatility remains unchanged. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

This is a defamatory lie @AlecShelbrooke. I am proudly anti-war and anti-racist. I make no apologies for attending a Stop the War protest. That does not mean I support the Iranian regime. I dare you to repeat your libellous statement outside of parliament.

Netanyahu is a liar. It's not his worst trait, but he's lying again.

Netanyahu says the difference between Israel & Iran is that Iran targets civilians & Israel doesn't

A reminder that Netanyahu is wanted for war crimes that include directing attacks against civilians & extermination or murder as a crime against humanity

One well known political commentator in mainstream media’s view is KS was only ever a human rights lawyer because it builds β€œcreds” to advance a political career. There was little evidence of concern for rights in his DPP tenure, and certainly not now, re immigration, peaceful protest, jury trial.

A Saudi official saying this on Al Jazeera, a Qatari media outlet, is far more telling than any nugget of information carefully leaked to an American media outlet.

This war will permanently alter the relationship of the Gulf states, the US, and Israel.

UK launches operation to support thousands of Britons in Middle East Officials are understood to be working on plans to evacuate British nationals, should airspace remain closed.

What's happening in Dubai bolsters the argument taxes should be based on people's nationality, not just their country of residence (ie the US model).

If Brits living abroad can expect to be airlifted out by virtue of being British, they should pay some tax towards that.

The USA is a rogue terrorist state, led by a fascist loon, which poses a threat to us all.

We must stand with ALL its victims.

That means standing with Venezuela.
That means standing with Greenland.
That means standing with Cuba.
And yes, that means standing with Iran.

Nigel Farage's Long History of Crying β€˜Fraud’ Whenever His Party Loses Elections The Reform UK leader has a long record of blaming his own party's election defeats on "cheating" by ethnic minorities, yet no evidence of it can ever be found

Every time Nigel Farage's parties have lost an election he has blamed it on "cheating" by ethnic minorities and every time he receives huge amounts of media attention for doing so.

The only problem? No evidence of cheating is ever found

Thousands of pollution incidents in England downgraded without site visit, data suggests Exclusive: Whistleblower figures show large rise in β€˜serious’ to β€˜minor’ downgrades based on water company evidence

Corruption in England's water industry and its regulation

2,778 serious pollution incidents reported in 2024.

Officials downgraded 2,735 (98%) to minor incidents.

Only 496 attended before downgrading; the rest were deemed minor.

Regulators collude with industry, inflicting harms to people.

Thousands of patients waiting over 24 hours in A&E 'corridor care' Known as

52,000+ patients waited longer than 24 hours to be admitted to hospitals across north-west England.

Many wait for up to 3 days. Govt doesn't publish full data

Tory austerity, NHS neglect, refusal to tax the rich inflicts misery.

And it continues. The NHS needs more capacity, not privatisation.

Everyone in and around Labour who clung to the β€œsectarian”/family voting narrative to excuse defeat should be ashamed of themselves.

It is taking us to a very dark, Trump-like place.
