This is very concerning and is almost certainly being championed in the US by Trump's tech and oil backers, both of which see the UK as a battleground at the moment.
Remember the controversy when Obama was accused of intervening in UK politics? This is the current US government openly seeking to undermine liberal democracy in Europe.

This is the reality. The British state MILKS immigrants ruthlessly for money. Thousands and thousands of pounds. And then declares they're all dangerous spongers.
I’ll have been in country for ten years in August, & should have been eligible for ILR, then citizenship the day after we get married in November. I have paid in the range of £15k in visa fees since arriving, and have been in work nonstop, paying tax.

This fascist dumbass is stealing that.

This is preying on my mind a bit. Jeffrey Epstein was not primarily a British scandal! So far we've removed a Prince from the Royal family, fired our US ambassador who was one of the most important political figures of the last few decades and banned the CEO of Barclays from the financial industry..
One by one, Europeans mentioned in the Epstein files who still hold political office are beginning to resign or are being forced out of office.

Meanwhile, ruled by an administration almost entirely made up of Epstein associates, the US carries on as if nothing really happened.

These responses to Epstein are what I previously would have expected from basically anyone who was aware of his conviction.

Why didn’t his other correspondents react like this?

so crazy to me that a woman asked trump if he has any words for epstein's victims and he said "you as a young woman should smile more." it will go nowhere bc republicans refuse to hold trump accountable, but it's still pretty crazy.

We're working with scientists to lift the lid on the oil & gas industry’s dirty secrets, using marine strandings to expose the truth.

Together, @oceanauk.bsky.social + @zslofficial.bsky.social examined research on harm to wildlife from 1000s of oil spills in UK waters, finding evidence of:

- lung lesions in bottlenose dolphins
- harm to the livers of minke whales
- orcas + dolphins less able to successfully reproduce

I think this is representative of fossil-fuelled weather extremes reportage not just in Aus but in many countries, where (a) the cause, fossil fuels, is simply never mentioned and (b) the change is treated as essentially inevitable and un-mitigatable, all that's left is figuring out how to 'adapt'

11/ Until we name that, this argument will keep looping.

I find myself cautious when interpreting these trends: progress exists, but limits are real and urgent, and much more could be done to reduce unnecessary harm.

Thought provoking 🧵. It's interesting that the examples here are often used in arguments as if they are a knockout blow - but both statements in each pair are true. It's just that one of them will feel more conclusive to you.
The optimist vs pessimist divide in #climate debates isn’t usually about the data.

It’s about how the same graphs are read, what people emphasise, what they discount, and how they interpret pace and stakes.

Here’s what I mean 🧵👇

“If even the security services are gagged when they tell the government what it doesn’t want to hear, perhaps our communication style, or our modes of protest or our dress sense, are not, as we keep being told, the problem.”
Please spread this far and wide, as stories don't get much bigger than this. When the government blocks even the intelligence services from telling us we're heading for environmental catastrophe, you know we have a problem. A very big problem.
Thank you.

Gas consumption for heating increased an estimated 5.5%. The increase was due to colder weather, but controlling for weather variations, there has been no progress in reducing emissions from gas-fired heating for the past three years, after Russia's gas freeze led to reductions in 2021-22.

The lagging adoption of EVs and other cleaner mobility has seen the EU’s transport oil consumption continue to increase, keeping the Union dependent on imported oil and endangering 2030 climate targets. The EU urgently needs to ensure the phase-out of new fossil fuel vehicles.

New from us: EU CO2 emissions fell only 0.8% in 2025, the second year in a row that the bloc has fallen short of its targets. Adverse weather played a big role but underlying issues are slow progress on transport and buildings electrification and wind power buildout.
