I will never understand how this wasn’t the end for either of these deranged brats. Every milquetoast brownnoser who elevated or defended them hoping for a crumb from their unearned power should be ashamed. You knew. The evidence was right there. But you liked standing near the big boys.

This is happening, right now. The great "arribada" (arrival) of mother Olive Ridley sea turtles on the Odisha coast, where they dig sand-nests & lay their eggs, driven by ancient instinct. Heart-lifting, magnificent, moving: part of a geography of hope. 🎞️ by Bivash Pandav via my friend Yuvan Aves.

We desperately need to see the end of the bloodshed in Ukraine, but the Ukrainian people need to be front and centre of any settlement. We cannot have Putin or Trump dictating the future of Ukraine.

Bafflingly there are still people out there in the world who think being passionate about nature is “kind of weird”. or “a niche interest”. These people have it all wrong. Nature isn’t some quirky sideline to the main business. It IS the main business.

Stan Laurel visiting his mum and dad in 1932. Trust me. You need this. youtu.be/J3K43OEC9jw?...

Started watching #gobacktowhereyoucamefrom on C4 because I thought it would be interesting to see if the participants changed their views on immigrants. Not sure if I can stick 4 hrs of their appalling racism and unquestioning regurgitation of Reform Party bollocks

Watch this moment of bravery! A fearless Bishop stands in front of Trump during the president’s service & urges him to show kindness & compassion to LGBTs & migrants. Trump’s reaction? Indifference This is the kind of courage that sparks real change. Watch, feel the power & share if it inspires you

Extreme wealth is extreme control. Never has this been so clear. Well we don’t have to settle for it. In our letter to Davos leaders, 370+ millionaires & billionaires say we must draw the line. Protect ppl, planet, & democracy: rein in extreme wealth & tax us, the super rich.

“Trump’s Return Must Be a Turning Point for the UK to Stop Pandering to America and Forge a Brighter Future With Europe. Trump is taking the US in a dark direction and we must not let ourselves be dragged along with him” argues @carladenyer.bsky.social👏 bylinetimes.com/2025/01/21/t...

The NHS winter crisis can't be accepted as an annual inevitability. Mental health and social care services can't meet urgent needs, meaning more patients are being kept in overcrowded hospitals. It's time for a #wealthtax to fix this mess.

Please welcome and follow @mothinali.bsky.social a fantastic Green councillor and a pillar of his community, who is being targeted by the far right. A smashing guy, who absolutely does not deserve this hatred. Go show him some bluesky love. 💚💚💚

We urgently need to ban destructive bottom trawl-fishing in the UK's marine protected areas. This practice: ❌ Hoovers up marine wildlife ❌ Destroys vital habitat from corals to seagrass ❌ Deepens the climate crisis Why is the government delaying? www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

Listening to ‘PM’ on Radio 4. In-depth segment about birth rates falling. Lots of concern about this trend; lots of discussion of possible ways of increasing birth rates. Zero discussion of existential risks such as climate, rupturing of planetary boundaries, AI, nuclear war…

Just a reminder that your local library has more than books! Many also have dvds, cds, video games, game systems, internet hot spots, streaming services, ebooks, audio books, park passes, museum passes, and so much more! Maybe it's time for a visit! ❤️📚

Despite pretending to be a man of the people, Nigel Farage makes £97,000 PER MONTH making him the highest paid MP. (At that's not for his MP job!) Despite never being in his constituency and still chasing his own fame, career and profit. Nigel farage is a grifter. Repost of you agree

It also makes it harder for them to ban books.
