Even more bad news for air quality ☹️: ‘Birmingham City Council has admitted it is incinerating some of the recycling rubbish collected from residents during the ongoing bin strike.’ @mumsforlungs.bsky.social www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Why do people drive or fly short-haul instead of taking the train? Hmmm 👇 . "While high ticket prices have long been an issue, it is becoming more so each passing year, given the annual rise in train fares against 14 years of fuel duty cuts or freezes for car drivers." https://buff.ly/410hTEI

Obviously speeding is bad, but my experience of the M6 has been that you are lucky to be able to move, let alone hit 96mph🫣 www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

Okay, so I'm going to post a couple of links about nuclear energy. Broadly, I am in favour. We need to combat climate change and we also need energy. The video is important because it makes clear the limited amount of waste and how to deal with it. youtu.be/4aUODXeAM-k?...

The man Trump is a monster Greenland “needs to be American” Canada “needs to become the 51st state” Gaza - during his inauguration period he described it as having “great beaches, we can really make something great there” like it’s a feckin holiday resort www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cl...

This thread is pretty shocking. To think someone's article can be edited without their consent for fear of how Trump's government might respond to words like 'equity' and 'marginalized' 🤯

Keir Starmer responds to Kemi Badenoch attacks that he’s a “lawyer, not a leader”. PM says: “She’s not a lawyer, she’s not a leader, if she keeps going like this, she’s going to be the next lettuce”. #PMQs 🥬

What's interesting here is the fact that young people are feeling so disenfranchised and that the way it was dealt with only makes things worse, really. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

Please share :)

This is heartbreaking. Make no mistake, a society can be judged by how it treats its most vulnerable members. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

This is the Ben & Jerry’s video that has folks talking and MAGA losing their shit! We need to support @benandjerrys y’all, because we don’t ever want them to “stick to just the ice cream”. 👀

They don't care about people's health, just making money by stigmatising fat bodies. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

My petition to Birmingham City Council to think again about closing Kings Heath Park plant nursery will be presented at full council meeting next Tuesday. If you haven’t signed or shared it yet please do so. There are plenty of ways to improve and make this garden centre commercially viable.

You’ve heard of the bat signal but do you know about the uber rare fat signal? It’s how we summon folks when there’s something going on that needs their amplification. Tell everyone who needs to see this film. Especially your mum. UK 📺 Premiere 28 Jan 10pm BBC Storyville TELL EVERYONE! #fat
