I'm from Sudan. I need your help to get our voices heard around the world. Save Sudan! I need a million shares for this post. Sudan is being exterminated. El Fasher is being exterminated. Please get our voices heard around the world! 😭

Finally, someone talking about the fuel poverty that matters

The SNP has challenged Keir Starmer to "finally" strip Peter Mandelson of his peerage, following the example of King Charles who has removed all titles and rent-free residence in the Royal Lodge from Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, formerly Prince Andrew

More than 50 child asylum seekers still missing after disappearing from Kent care Council data obtained by the Guardian shows 345 children have gone missing in recent years, many probably taken by traffickers

Jesus Christ. We go mad about one bloke we wrongly released, yet hear next to nothing about this horror? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

The underlying fundamental economics have changed dramatically: solar is now so cheap that businesses and households all around the world install it often without subsidies. Throw in batteries and the business case just keeps improving.

The coming collapse in immigration to the United Kingdom - UK in a changing Europe James Bowes analyses the fall in net migration to the UK as a result of government policies and explores some of the political and economic consequences.

Not necessarily a good thing, then. "Net migration will fall very sharply....Furthermore, emigration will continue to increase....Any political benefit the government may gain from this fall in immigration could be jeopardised by the economic damage that it causes."

Global methane action pays for itself at least six times over

And for fans of GHG metrics: "[...] Lastly, although the best basis for comparing methane and CO2 abatement should be relative social costs, we have found that the convention of using GWP100 is a reasonable approximation."

Images of creative Dutch biking infrastructure

IMPORTANT: The Dutch invest €595 million annually on urban biking, resulting in €19 BILLION saved in public health care costs alone. That’s how smart governments do the math on investing in better mobility.

Let’s be clear— it wastes public money to NOT do it.

For the UAE, this is a strategy to secure access to Sudan's gold and agricultural land.

The UAE is a US client state, and must have at least tacit US approval for this proxy war. The UAE must be held accountable for these atrocities, and we need to know the extent of US involvement.

So sad for all the people devastated by this (man made) hurricane

We are throwing the climate under the bus in exchange for tech of dubious value. At the end of the day, after all the hype, that’s the actual trade here.

Those numbers (as is typical) exclude people who say "Don't Know" (one third!)

Interestingly, women and under 54s - good demographics for Greens - are even more likely to say "Don't know".

If we win them over, we could see quite a big jump in our polling.

Pop Base tweets: "Kim Kardashian said on ‘The Kardashians’ that she believes the moon landing was fake: “They’re gonna say I’m crazy no matter what, but like, go to TikTok. See for yourself. […] There’s no gravity on the moon. Why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon is a different print in the photos. Why are there no stars?”"

"go to TikTok. See for yourself."

The latest travesty in #Tunisia president Kais Saied’s kangaroo courts:

Prosecuting a growing # of lawyers—yes, lawyers—as “terrorists” because they dared to defend President Kais Saied’s political opponents.

Another Reform rep on QT, no LibDem, Green, SNP or Plaid politician. A week after Plaid’s big win, wouldn’t it have been an opportunity to hear from them? The over platforming of Reform continues apace.

"These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him" is quite a sentence.

He has asked us to repeat his denials, and while it is a fact that he does continue those denials, the King does not believe them [and nor does anybody else]

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Buckingham Palace has announced that it is removing all remaining styles, titles and honours of Prince Andrew:

"Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor."

He is also being evicted from his accommodation at Royal Lodge.

Correct action, but it should never have taken this long.

Really? How so?

A scoreboard put together by the Two Councils proposers (see page 29 of the full document for transcript)

A 149-page document (plus appendices) sets out their case, saying two councils would be “the right size and geography to be effective and viable and small enough to be representative and responsive… only the two council model offers strong local accountability alongside financial sustainability”.

Map of the “two councils” proposal including the Oxford Protuberance™

With the final proposals for reorganising Oxfordshire’s councils being published this week, the first out the gate is the ‘Two Councils’ proposal from the rural districts. This would see one new council comprising Oxford City, Cherwell and West Oxon, and another with South, Vale and West Berkshire.

This is really poor by BBC researchers and producers. Goodwin hasn't been an active academic for a number of years, yet is described as one (thus legitimating his relentless Reform activism and constant bad faith misrepresentation of evidence). 1/?

For the vast majority of people (except Ukrainians and Hongkongers) there is NO WAY to claim asylum in the UK without coming by small boat
