All opinions my own, south Belfast resident, middle-aged, middle class, not BT Nige, worried by the alarming lack of action on the global environmental polycrisis that threatens to destroy my kid’s future. Love hurling & rugby.

@lucidtalk.bsky.social Are you going to publish the border poll findings on Bluesky as well as X?

Huge opportunities in the net zero economy if we invest properly - this is where govt should be focusing, not on climate wrecking airport expansion or oil drilling! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Hey! I just signed a petition to demand the UK government commit to no new oil and gas projects in the North Sea. Can you join me and sign and share the petition? act.gp/3Vex6vE

@sorenhave.dk I used to live in Bulowsvej until 2 years ago my family & I returned to our native Belfast. I cycle as much as possible though the infrastructure here is sadly much less than in CPH. Is there any good sources you can point me at on how to make a city like ours more like CPH?

Let this sink in like all the russian battleships on the bottom of the Black Sea. 👇🏼

George Monbiot is on the money as usual, why is Labour not repealing the draconian anti-public protest laws the Tories created? www.theguardian.com/global/comme...

@privateeyenews.bsky.social Brilliant “Troll Call” piece in this week’s Private Eye regarding the source of the allegations about Rachel Reeves during her time at HBOS. I can’t say I’m a Reeves fan but she is taking some undue stick, the Beeb should have known better than to amplify this trollery.

When I see Steve Bannon doing a Nazi salute to cheers it means only one thing: 420,000 U.S. troops died defending our country from Nazi assholes and 77 million people voted for them to be in power. MAGA betrayed our country voting for this nightmare.

So Trump says Zelenskyy’s approval rating is 4% when actual reliable polling puts him at 57%. What is Trump’s current approval rating? 44% www.reuters.com/data/trumps-... You lose Donald!

@clairehanna.bsky.social @jessphillipsmp.bsky.social please, please, please stop this disgusting Thames Water shakedown by the gang of financial services thieves who are sucking us dry. How much longer are we going to be mugged off by these gangsters?!?!

@ipsc.bsky.social I am looking for the email template the Derry branch of IPSC has created to protest the presence of Katie Hopkins at the Everglades hotel, I want to use it to protest her presence in Belfast. If anyone has it please DM me. Thanks!

People around the country are planning demonstrations at Tesla outlets on February 15. Others are already calling for follow-up demonstrations on March 1. Here's a flier you can print and hand out at those demonstrations—or anywhere else—about why this is necessary. crimethinc.com/posters/depo...

@executiveoffice-ni.gov.uk @katenicholl.bsky.social Why are you supporting the Assembly Members (Remuneration Board) Bill? Allowing such a bill with no public consultation which would permit ex-MLAs to determine MLAs pay increases smacks of cronyism and is anti-democratic!

@lordsniscom.bsky.social Will you be scrutinising the Assembly Members (Remuneration Board) Bill which has been proposed without public consultation? Ex-MLAs should be barred from deciding current MLAs pay. This attempt smacks of cronyism and corruption!

www.theguardian.com/environment/... This is the stupidest energy idea I’ve heard of in a long time. Let’s build lots of small, very expensive, unproven radioactive waste generators all over the country instead of investing in cheaper, safer renewable base energy tech like tidal and pumped storage!

I've signed this petition to demand that Economy Minister Caoimhe Archibald comes clean on whether money is being given to companies aiding the genocide in Gaza - will you sign too? @actnowcampaigns my.actnowni.org/petitions/co...

www.theguardian.com/politics/202... This is insane, if they approve this there should be another election because there is no way we voted for climate suicide. Labour are moving so far to the right that they could be mistaken for Reform.
