The average American voter thinks that the government is too big but that it should spend more money on everything it does. This explains a decent share of the political chaos of this country.

A truly astounding exchange. The Zelensky/Trump meeting descends into an out and out slanging match. Perhaps the most remarkable thing we’ve ever seen recorded in the Oval Office.

King Charles who loves killing foxes, birds, and badgers has been made Patron of the RSPCA. King Charles used his power to block a ban on Fox Hunting and to make sure it is the joke ban we currently have. RT if the RSPCA should remove him.

The green economy grew by 10% in 2024 and generated £83bn. It’s time to stop backpedalling on the green stuff and hit the accelerator. The faster we decarbonise the faster we cut energy costs, create jobs and strengthen our economy. buff.ly/3XdEACW

This is not an intellectual point, bur I wanted to state that I am frightened by the situation in the US and I am becoming even more anxious by the extent to which most people I know IRL (ie: not politics addicts) are entirely unmoved

Proud to be a Lib Dem. Aghast at the Reform numbers. 2/3 of them have a favourable view of Trump, over a third of them have an unfavourable view of Zelenskyy and about 1/8 of them have a favourable view of Putin. FFS!

The first heat pump in the UK was installed in Norwich in 1945 but today only 1% of UK households currently use heat pumps. In fact, the UK has just 412 heat pumps per 100,000 people compared to the European average of 3,068. The problem? A huge public knowledge gap about heat pumps in the UK.

Love the FA Cup on the BBC. No ad breaks filled with gambling ads, just analysis of the first 45. Bliss. And I say that as a long suffering Spurs fan that's one nil down at half time.

We've reached 1.5°C global warming. With current policies, we're heading for a catastrophic 2.7°C warming. A new review paper in Science shows: this would change the Arctic 'beyond recognition', with knock-on effects (like rising seas) around the world. 🌊 www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

At a moment when we desperately need a fragile truce to hold, Trump’s ramblings on Gaza risk having the effect of a bull in a china shop. The UK needs to make clear that these proposals must be rejected, and that we support international law and a two state solution based on 1967 borders.

At. Gunpoint. Musk is telling duly appointed and security cleared government officials that they will be shot if they don't turn over to Musk sensitive information to which he has no right. In any other country, we'd call it a coup.

A tiny 2% wealth tax, on 20k people would raise £24 billion per year to spend on the things that urgently need fixing in our country. We need some tax justice - the more money you have the less tax you pay and vice versa - that’s absurd.

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.
