This is big: Michelle Mone is being forced to pay back £122m after supplying poor quality protective gear to our NHS during the pandemic. But she STILL hasn't been kicked out of the House of Lords. Mone has to go. Agree? Sign the petition today:

Blimey! The number of @bsky.app
users just passed 40 MILLION!! 👏

The fundamental problem:

58% of voters want public spending maintained or increased.

67% want taxes to stay at their current level or be cut.

In reality, it’s a binary choice. Taxes go up, or spending is cut. That’s it.

🇺🇸 🔥 That. Was. Impressive.

We are watching America reassert itself and its values from the grassroots up. The world saw you and we have huge hope invested in you.

A Free Press, Not a Free Pass – It's Time for Fair Regulation For too long, the UK press have bullied people, harassed grieving families, and destroyed lives, all to sell papers. We’ve all seen the heartbreaking consequences. They’ve hacked phones, listened to ...

How about we get some pay back from the Tories who waved their mates through the VIP gate during Covid?!

From promises to collapse: The measurable damage Brexit caused the NHS Staffing gaps, medicine shortages and avoidable harm – the everyday reality of a broken Brexit promise

Tory on Today programme saying Mandelson’s link to Epstein made him incompatible to be an ambassador for His Majesty. Where does that leave Prince Andrew?!

Balance the BBC The BBC is our national broadcaster, people expect and deserve balanced news coverage.

Why, you might ask, do the BBC and Sky News, casting their editorial guidelines to the wind, keep giving massive airtime to the far right, while shutting out leftwing voices? Don't their bosses understand the likely consequences?
Only one explanation now remains.
They do.
And it is what they want.

Want to import toxic chemicals into Britain with scant scrutiny? Labour says: go right ahead | George Monbiot Jacob Rees-Mogg’s Tory fantasy of a post-Brexit bonfire of regulations is coming true. Our bodies and ecosystems will pay the price, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Sorry to burden you with another jaw-dropping scandal. But what the government intends to do to chemicals regulation in the UK is chilling. Its consultation was slipped out so quietly that most of us missed it. When I read it, I saw why.

Astonishing:

Thames Water was fined £18.2m on 19 Dec 2024 by OFWAT for violating dividend payment rules.

It hasn't paid the fine.

The Minister says TW "has until 20 August 2025 to pay the fine.".

TW has over 187 criminal convictions, allowed to negotiate fines.

Can’t remember when I last saw one policeman, never mind two.

Millions of tonnes of toxic sewage sludge spread on UK farmland every year Exclusive: Experts call for stricter regulation as current rules set in 1989 require testing for only a few heavy metals

At @fightingdirty.bsky.social, we sued over this issue, and lost on the grounds that the Environment Agency couldn't be in breach because the government had issued no direction. An absurdity, which means that poisons continue to be spread on farmland every day. 🧵

Just received news that 27 people have been arrested in Parliament Square under the Terrorism Act 2000 for holding signs saying "I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action".
This is real police state behaviour.

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...

Caught lobbying for cash or bullying in Parliament? You can still return to the House of Lords - for life.
No real consequences. No accountability.
Sign now to kick rule-breakers out for good.

I think it would be good to get some women in charge of the countries that have nuclear weapons. Women talk to each other. Women can be reasonable. Enough with the macho men and swinging dicks.

Sign the petition: Save Our Swifts Swifts have lost more than half their population in 20 years. A simple £35 brick in new builds could help save them. Labour used to support this – now they’re planning to backtrack. Sign the petition ...

@teamlabouruk.bsky.social It is a no-brainer to oblige developers to install a £35 swift brick. It has to be by legislation otherwise they will not do it. So disappointed by the watering down of environmental concerns.

Nigel Farage’s economic plans are a disaster Three choices: fiscal implosion, deep austerity or a hasty U-turn

The Economist estimates that the annual costs of Reform UK’s manifesto would be around £200bn and savings around £100bn. The gap would amount to a colossal fiscal shock, blowing up the deficit and straining the gilt market to its limit
