Can anyone tell me why the BBC felt it pertinent to lead tonight’s 10pm news with the playground spat between trump & musk? Meanwhile, Israel continues its USA & UK backed genocide in Palestine…. But that’s not as important…

Profiteering. There is no excuse for exhorting large sums of £ for a trip of a few weeks from people who have had cancer. None whatsoever. Last time an insurance co. reported financial problems? Never. @premnsikka.bsky.social @labourlewis.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

the govt can, & must, take the quick and correct decisions to raise, set & enforce higher standards. I feel that we are getting closer to a potential awakening of British discontent and action if they don’t… @greenparty.org.uk @libdems.org.uk @libdemdaisy.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social

The UK govt could do so much more, & quickly, to redress the balance of health & life expectancy through more effective & efficient taxation. Start with the mega rich. As @greenparty.org.uk says, those with the most must contribute more. @greenjennyjones.bsky.social @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social

Another step in the right direction. However, the govt must be bolder & quicker: enforce better quality new housing with full insulation, solar and battery, heat pump. Plus EV charging point. Retrofit ALL public buildings. Plenty of “growth” opportunities! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Ofwat “confirmed it would be paid paid by the company and its investors, not by customers.” Why couldn’t Ofwat enforce previous fines in this way? What have you to say @emmahardymp.bsky.social ? Thames Water fined £122.7m in biggest ever penalty www.bbc.com/news/article...

This is good example of how farmers and environmentalists can work together for the benefit of nature. It also highlights the need to get landowners involved (@guyshrubsole.bsky.social) & pay sheep farmers to make it work. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
