Right now green energy has just overtaken coal as the world’s biggest provider of power - that’s something Trump and his fossil fuel funders will hate to hear - maybe that’s why they’re preventing people talking about it. Won’t change the reality though.

Trump wants to ban people talking about the climate crisis... that’s censorship - where’s the free speech in that - for all the MAGA guff that there’s no free speech in the UK - massive hypocrites.

But more than that, why is there an allowable limit for highly damaging chemicals in our water - at all. Salmon farming is toxic - toxic to animal rights and toxic to our environment - it needs to stop.

Madness is sometimes defined as continuing to do the same things but hoping to get a different outcome. That fits this situation. Why let these people resume their toxic discharges at all, their track record is awful, they will surely resume their reckless rule breaking.

Jilly came to football late in life but became a big fan of FGR and the game....:)

Jilly came to football late in life but became a big fan of FGR and the game, “Football is more exciting to the world than sex” she once said. Her last book (Tackle) was based on her experience with us at FGR - she took the Bonkbuster genre to the beautiful game.

Here’s a little memory nudge for Michelle Mone - as to where some of that public money went, from her now bankrupt company, that failed so badly to supply the protective equipment it was overpaid to provide (the VIP lane ensured that) - in the middle of a Pandemic…..

Conference of the Living Dead - is not yet a film title in the genre - but it started this weekend.

The rich want to use the media they have to distract you and lie to you. Didn’t work this time.

Most of this media coverage reported that the scale of millionaire migration in 2024 was large enough to have significant economic consequences. Here’s the thing. A 2% wealth tax on assets above £10m can bring in £24bn. That’s a hell of a lot of money.

Dale Vince @dalevince.com · 4d

Over 10,900 articles were published across print, broadcast and online news in 2024 mentioning an ‘exodus’ of millionaires and/or ‘Henley & Partners’ claims on millionaire migrations. This was equivalent to 30 articles a day on the millionaire ‘exodus’ in 2024.

With that company filing for bankruptcy immediately after the court order to repay £120m - with it’s bank accounts empty - how about you tell us where the money went Michelle....?

Dale Vince @dalevince.com · 4d

If Michelle Mone really wants to ‘clear her name’ she could start with some honesty and transparency - both lacking so far due to years of denials over any link to PPE Medpro.

Finally, a green party leader willing to speak the hard truths....:)

Shocked to say I agree with Badenoch on this - Mone should stop Moaning and Feck off. She has disgraced the Tory party (not easy to do) and the House of Lords (could say the same) and simply does not deserve her honour. The idea that she will ‘clear her name’ is simply absurd…:)

Breaking the Link is happening, in Spain. 75% reduction in times when gas sets the price resulting in power prices 30% lower than the EU average. While Britain has prices more like 30% higher than the EU average. The Link is the cause. What are we waiting for, Ed, Keir, Rachel....?

The 'misunderstanding' was we live in a country with a free press…

There’s a world of difference. This graphic shows the gulf between what you claim and what reality actually looks like. And the scale of your guff on net zero.

Dale Vince @dalevince.com · 5d

For fans of emotion and prejudice, the people that love to ignore data - and hate on net zero regardless; Badenoch, Farage, Trump…. Here is a graph showing costs of the fossil fuels you say are our future, that are more economic than green energy - alongside the costs of green energy…..

Ed goes Full Metal Jacket on the right wing fools in this barnstorming speech. I’d go further, indeed I have, when it comes to Musk - the sooner he F*cks off to Mars the better.

But here’s the danger: the more Greg trashes wind power, the more likely we are to end up with Reform UK writing our energy policy. Imagine that.

Honestly... with friends like Jackson, who needs enemies……..:)
