"That's stupid." @carladenyer.bsky.social explains some of the changes that could be made to our energy market to bring down bills and emissions.

Need a help with feelings please ... not mine -- yours. ... If you were to read a popular science / natural history book, how would you like to feel once you'd read it??

Sewage spills are rising, bills are through the roof, and water companies are breaking the law while pocketing millions. It’s time we put people before profit—public ownership is the only solution to ensure this vital utility works for the public good.

Keir Starmer is set to nationalise British Steel as a ‘strategically important’ industry. What about water, energy, rail and mail? 💧 💡 🚆 📮 Over two thirds of us back public ownership of these strategically important public services. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

Obvious right? Why are we even asking this question?

I really must stop playing with ChatGPT in the middle of the night! Some legs might’ve been useful too…

You know what would utterly transform this country? Lots and lots of this. And no, they shouldn't ever be for sale.

If we don't build an alternative the choice at the next election is Reform or more of Starmer's Thatcherite Government. Let's build a future where we look after each other and the world around us join.greenparty.org.uk

The Education Secretary has reportedly 'offered up' universal free school meals as well as free period products and dance, music and PE schemes as a way to save money. None of this cruelty is necessary. The Green Party would tax the super-rich fairly. Labour should do the same.

🎉 We've just hit 60,000 Green Party members! 💚 People across England and Wales are crying out for a positive alternative to the two old parties and that's exactly what the Green Party is offering. 🤝 Want to be part of the change? Join the Green Party today ⤵️

Utterly indefensible. Labour are choosing to cut vital support from vulnerable people. They are also choosing to protect the wealth of the super rich. If this makes you angry, do something about it. Join @greenparty.org.uk and challenge this Government.

Please @bbcradio4.bsky.social don’t parrot Tory rhetoric about their plan to set the country on “a new path” to tackle #climate change. That’s not what they’re doing. Badenoch is trashing the science & setting the country on a course to be poorer and more prone to climate disaster

When Labour are planning to cut benefits from those who can't wash themselves or remember to go to the toilet - angry speeches or strong statements are not enough. People want to see more actual tangible action than that. How will they vote? And why still be in the Labour party?

Thames Water bosses think we’re fools. 🤡 Filling their own pockets whilst pumping sewage into our rivers. 💩 They want THEIR fines cancelled but want to raise OUR bills 59% 🤯 Enough is enough. Take Thames into public ownership NOW. Sign here ✍️ tinyurl.com/yxht3p94
