Toxic UK newspapers (several with links to fossil fuel investors) have already published more personal attacks on the UK climate change minister Ed Miliband than they did in the whole of 2024... Meanwhile the UK's "Fox-style" TV channel GB News has relentlessly pushed similarly toxic messages...

Child poverty in the UK. A young child hospitalised with malnutrition leading to the loss of all her teeth. Years of austerity, real wage cuts, profiteering, two child benefit cap, cuts to public services take toll. Govts appease the rich, blight lives of many. archive.ph/IwH73

Everyone should read this thread 🧵 This is how they do it!!! This is how the establishment, the foreign billionaires, the British billionaires and the politicians divide us. This is how they split us up… so we hate one another instead of them!! We really do need to bloody well wake up!!

Katy is right about this, as usual, and further, what this ruling does it basically make it unsafe to be a non-feminine woman, or one who doesn't meet the beauty standard generally, in public. It's a movement to push women back into the domestic sphere.

For all the pathetic attempts to "legitimise" this week's Supreme Court decision, this is, at the end of the day, the outcome. It's the outcome of relentless hate and hostility aimed at trans and non-binary individuals. This is why showing support is so important. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

An inconvenient truth for #Labour: #NHS privatisation is entirely un-evidence based and the public has never agreed to it. All evidence is that #privatisation is: 1) more expensive for taxpayers, and 2) has worse outcomes for patients

The evidence is clear: We must transition to clean energy if humanity is to have a liveable future. Meanwhile today's Telegraph is pushing the idea that climate policy is bad because it's a threat to (checks notes) rural churches... This is what the Co-op & other advertisers are supporting...

Kitchen utensil/cookery question! Does anyone have a modern oven that's 594mm in width? If so, will a 44cm x 32cm baking tray fit in it? We've bought a new oven (which isn't coming for a few weeks) and I want to know if the seemingly giant baking tray I've bought will fit in it!

I've never seen such a crass climate change signal. A heatwave up to 10C hotter because of our burning of fossil fuels hit Central Asia last month. And this is only now, with just under 1.5C global warming. www.worldweatherattribution.org/extraordinar...

For my money: “To boldly go” conveys a state of boldness which almost incidentally takes the form of going “To go boldly” conveys an action “going” possessed of a quality “boldness” They are not the same. I need access to both. That’s all it takes.
