The melting of the world’s glaciers is “accelerating alarmingly” to lose the equivalent of 3 Olympic swimming pools each second, with Europe’s Alps & Pyrenees the worst affected. @FT

These are believed to never be found because they evaporated with the bombs. And no one is doing any story about my grandparents’ graves, which were erased forever during Israel’s destruction of cemeteries. My grandparents’ graves are more important to me and they deserve equal if not more attention

Welcome response

This made me so angry I have to not actually say what it made me think.

Sick

Excellent truth-telling from @dechant.bsky.social: “Now we have a better idea why Occidental was keen to pick up the pricey [carbon capture] technology: They want to use it to pump more oil.” Same as it ever was… techcrunch.com/2025/02/21/t...

👏👏👏👏 It can be done!

Sad, and very concerning.

This won’t end well

How can @bbcr4today do an entire item about keeping NHS data private without telling people the horse has already bolted. Never mentioned that the government, despite protest & huge concerns, sold our NHS data to US firm Palantir, formerly run by Musk’s mate, Peter Thiel www.bmj.com/content/386/...

Good questions that need answering

Why indeed 😡

Sickening and dangerous. Needs to stop

BBC obsesses on Rachel Reeves but not Reforms James McMurdock whose CV doesn’t add up👇🏼 He says he worked at at Lehmans (it had gone bust when he claimed to be there) He claims he dealt with Corporate Loans -they require FCA Reg but I couldn’t find him.. His bizs went bust @adambienkov.bsky.social

I wish the BBC had been as interested in the missing millions in Covid PPE contracts that went down the trousers of Tory MPs' friends and family, as they've been in Rachel Reeves's CV. #RachelReeves @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social

The Israeli government is using US tax dollars to carry out a mass ethnic cleansing campaign across the occupied West Bank. Since signing the ceasefire agreement in Gaza, Israeli forces have displaced almost 40,000 Palestinians from their homes.

Reform MP installed solar panels on his farm to save money on energy bills, despite his party pledging to tax solar energy and claiming renewables are more expensive.

Finally something that might break through. Not that we are a shallow species 🤷🏼‍♂️

Nigel Farage was in London yesterday campaigning for inheritance tax for farmers to be scrapped, then he voted for workers rights to be scaled back. Yet his support strengthens.

HOPE not hate can reveal that a network of Russia-linked Telegram channels are offering cash to UK residents willing to commit acts of terror and vandalism. This network is responsible for a recent wave of vandalism against Islamic centres in London.

A former UK diplomat has exposed conduct that “crossed the threshold into complicity with war crimes.” From Yemen to Gaza to Sudan, UK arms sales have enabled atrocities. We need an independent investigation & those responsible must be held accountable. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Two tier policing in plain sight

Sadly there is no will
