The planet is speaking through nature. It teaches us balance, zero waste, and resilience. Plastic pollution won’t solve itself, but together, we can. Today, on #WorldEnvironmentDay, we rise to act and #BeatPlasticPollution.

Public ownership is the only way to stop the outrageous theft. In England your Water Bills are 70% higher than they need to be AND the network is still falling apart. While Energy Bills are 200% higher than they need to be. Nationalise #STOPtheTHEFT

Leavers were promised an additional £350,000,000 a week for the #NHS after #Brexit. If no British PM is capable of delivering that pledge, then it is up to a British PM to deliver another EU referendum.

Well, who would have thought?

On the lookout this morning

“There is still lots to be done to repair the damage caused by Brexit. But that shouldn’t detract from a package of measures that goes significantly further than many – both in Brussels and the UK – expected even weeks ago.” Me for @bylinetimes.bsky.social bylinetimes.com/2025/05/20/k...

So, what deal did Vance do with the Vatican?

Time to end this mugging by corporates and preying on the old and vulnerable

£29 million = a brand new sewage works in Denmark. £453 million = an upgrade to existing works in in Oxford. We're paying for it through our bills, so where's all this money going?

❓How do you get Steve Reed the Environment Secretary to listen to your concerns about the private water industry? ❗⚽Meet him on his home turf.⚽❗ Lois is inviting Steve Reed to the football - fat cat water bosses can do it, so why shouldn't she? #Loisatthepalace

In case you missed it ... Here's a damning verdict from the Intelligence & Security Committee regarding Boris Johnson's half-baked report into Russian interference in the Brexit ref. Basically, they didn't even bother looking for any! Surely now it's time for a public enquiry into Putin's Brexit!

'Idiot politicians are leading us into futile, totally worthless, unnecessary wars.' 'Nobody wins a war! This is what they've got to get into their thick heads.' Ahead of the 80th VE Day, 100-year-old veteran Dorothea Barron speaks to @benkentish.bsky.social.
