Today, the CCC published its "Progress in reducing emissions – 2025 report to Parliament", revealing that the UK is making progress on #ClimateAction, but the scale and pace of change are still lagging behind what is required. ❌🌍 Read our blog post: cast.ac.uk/blog/what-do... Key takeaways thread🧵

If you are not alarmed at the type of thing these people now feel 100% comfortable saying out loud that they would have been scared to type into a group chat 10 years ago for fear that anyone might ever see it, I don't know what to tell you.

“If all SUVs were replaced with passenger cars, the number of pedestrians and cyclists killed in car crashes would decrease by an estimated 17% in the USA and by 8% in Europe. The number of child pedestrians and cyclists killed in car crashes would decrease by 27% in the USA and by 14% in Europe.”

"Kneecap are not the story. Gaza is the story. Genocide is the story. And the silence, acquiescence and support of those crimes against humanity by the elected British Government is the real story.” This ☝️

Today we handed in an incredible ONE MILLION signatures calling on the UK Government to stop new oil and gas. A huge thank you to everyone who added their name, and to @carladenyer.bsky.social and @elliechowns.bsky.social for coming out to show your support 👏

You don't appease people who want you dead, whether you're the BBC, or the bloody Labour Party. They'll still make sure you're dead even after you've surrendered every last thing you stand for to stay alive for another 10 minutes.

"As an impartial broadcaster, the BBC should not be pandering to attempts from the right to turn the world’s most efficient home heating system into a culture war issue. What’s next cancelling Gardeners’ World because of Monty Don’s support for peat-free compost?” www.theguardian.com/media/2025/a...

Why are children not playing in the street? An FT piece analysing the - very concerning - decline in outdoor play manages to look at every possible cause: screens, spaces, school timetable changes. Apart from one. Cars. It is simply not safe for kids to play outside on streets.

This great video also reminded me of an interesting facet of motonormativity: people can lose 100 hours a year in traffic and never notice; but they have one late train and it's all "Never again - you can't rely on them"

Really heartening to see such a good turnout for the march in today against genocide, fascism and, wait for it, bombing children. Still waiting for our ‘leaders’ to say something… #bds #freepalestine

“As countries work toward net-zero targets, addressing transport emissions will be critical in the fight against climate change.” We’ve barely started in tackling transport emissions in the UK, and the same is true across many other countries. Link: ourworldindata.org/data-insight...

Getting away with calling higher prices for citizens and exporting companies in your country 'Liberation Day' is a masterstroke of communication, and is something the left should learn from. Minus the lying bits.

Salam. I don't know if we'll survive. A stifling siege and a famine resembling the end of the world. Electricity has been cut off, wells have dried up, and the air has burned. We're experiencing a real famine, to the point where we'll start eating animal food. For the second year. Ethnic cleansing😔

Something less talked about, the 5p per litre cut in fuel duty, plus the fact it has already been frozen for 14 years, costs £5 BILLION per year. This tax cut benefits the wealthiest in society and, if reversed, would mean we wouldn't 'have' to keep punishing the most vulnerable..

After the airstrike which has killed over 400 people in Gaza, the UK government has taken a strong stance by rejecting its foreign secretary's stance that Israel had broken international law. So proud 👏

What’s the point in refusing citizenship to refugees who have ‘made a dangerous journey’? What’s the point in publishing footage of people being deported? I’m sorry to say that this is simply a continuation of the performative cruelty we saw from the Conservatives.

submitted 135 days ago • 98 comments

Denying refugees citizenship simply on the grounds that they arrived here “illegally” on small boats when there are no legal routes for most to use takes cynicism to new heights. If Govt thinks such performative cruelty will see off Reform, they’re wrong - it’s more likely to strengthen it

Before becoming PM, Starmer kept pointing out what being a real leader meant. So far he has shown punching down on those with the smallest/no voices: immigrants, the trans community, wildlife. Inspirational stuff 👏 👏 👏 www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Trump’s method is daily whiplash, vertigo, and shock & awe to confuse and overwhelm us. Journalistically, it should be most interesting then to ask: ‘what is it they don’t want us to look at today?’ To not get enraged by his daily gladiator games, and to look beyond them is an act of resistance.
