The greens may be the threat that the right never saw coming.

Our movement is living rent free in the heads of Telegraph journalists at the moment.

Join me in being ‘a threat to the right that they never saw coming’.

Preach 🙌

In the interest of public health, the GMC must reevaluate its treatment of climate protestors blogs.bmj.com/medical-ethi...

This is an absolutely shambolic decision by @gmcuk.bsky.social

Suspending a doctor that cares so deeply about protecting public health that he is willing to risk his personal & professional freedoms helps no one and harms everyone.

📣 Hot off the press

My latest publication after working GP Dr Patrick Hart was jailed for protesting climate inaction

As a result, he will likely be suspended by @gmcuk.bsky.social

He deserves better.
We must demand better.

It’s been 5 days since practicing GP Patrick Hart was jailed for protesting climate inaction.

Meanwhile California has burned down in flames.

Where are all the health leaders & health institutions statements on this?

Ongoing silence = complicity in climate collapse

World's hottest year: 2024 first to pass 1.5C warming limit Last year was the world's warmest on record, bringing temperatures above a politically symbolic milestone.

Each fraction of a degree of warming brings devastating health consequences - from life-threatening extreme weather events to the transmission of infectious diseases in previously unaffected areas.

Action today is critical to secure a thriving future.

Today Dr Patrick Hart, practicing GP, was imprisoned for 12 months for engaging in legitimate climate protest.

They think imprisoning climate protestors will make us back down.

But the fire in our hearts and our bellies just grows stronger for justice.

🔥 🌍 💚

The first practicing doctor to be imprisoned for climate protest.

He’ll then likely face suspension or worse from @gmcuk.bsky.social who remain intransigent in their determination to suspend doctors for peaceful protests.

Who on Earth does this serve?

It helps no one and harms everyone.
