The 2050 net zero target is a target scientists set for the world to act by to avoid the worse case scenarios of climate change, which cost billions and affect millions of people, but in the Tory party money not science or Tory voters determine policy. I prefer policy driven by evidence not bribery!

The return of Israeli strikes on Gaza is heartbreaking - for Palestinians, for the hostages and their families, and for the world. We need a return of the ceasefire immediately. Israel must end its illegal aid blockade, and Hamas must unconditionally release all the hostages.

President of France Emmanuel Macron has called on French manufacturers to increase the volume of arms production. Paris is offering arms contracts to European countries. As of 2023,France was among the top ten countries in the world in terms of military spending,⤵️

Correct the only way to make a bully like Putin stop is by Ukraine standing strong. That means increases military aid and without handbrakes on how the Ukrainians can use it to defend their country.

King Charles III of Canada meets his newly elected Prime Minister Mark Carney. Top of the conversation was how to deal with President Trump. I wonder if in private they discussed the option of giving Trump a very long extended state visit with a stay in White Tower. 😃🤣😂

Having previously fired the head of the Coastguard Trump now fires the heads of the Army, Air Force and Navy. All to appoint his people. Such actions in a 3rd world country would be part of a coup d'état. These are dangerous times US at the moment.

What a great idea, better than farm fields, and nearer electric grid supplies. How about starting with the large car parks around Heathrow and Gatwick!!

Some people have described President Trump as a racist & misogynistic man. Now saying this about a US President is a very serious charge without evidence, but these actions will leave the official US Army history looking like it only consists of white men, a false racist & misogynistic narrative.

All the the talk from Trump and JD Vance is of free speech, yet they are shutting down the Voice of America abroad and restricting access to the Whitehouse Press core at home. In reality the only people Trump wishes to speak freely in his USA are himself and his supporters. That is not free speech.

Reminder. #brexit = #Russianinterference

Good news from Hungry. At last it appears the Hungarian's are waking up to the dangers of a pro-Putin leader in Victor Orban.

I always find it amazing the more we discover the less we realise we actually know. On earth the ancient and prehistoric world is still largely unknown and in space the more we look the more planets, solar systems & galaxies we discover, as anyone like me has listened to @briancoxtalks.bsky.social

Lunchtime outing today to Downton, Wiltshire, UK. So I took the opportunity to photograph some of the many cottages around the "The Borough", which is a green area in Downton.

The Chancellor says she wishes to grow the economy, currently it is shrinking, so how how changing the damage done by the Tories Brexit deal, preferably rejoin the single market or a deal as close as possible to the single market.

There needs be a great deal more done to reduce sexual violence, victims getting free access to court transcripts is a obvious and really does not need pilot study, just do it!!

So true the simplest way to end this war is for Putin to withdraw from Ukraine. Sadly the way to stop a bully is to standup to them.

The British Prime Minister should give clear support that Canada is sovereign country and using trade tariffs to bully an ally, with aim of annexing its territory is unacceptable.
