This is beyond shocking - how can this be allowed to happen? Why on earth can’t they be released on bail? They have a right to a fair trial, appropriate medical treatment, & the removal of punitive Prison Service conditions. Govt’s ban on Palestine Action is simply intolerable

On Monday, Trump ran roughshod over intl law - the UK took no action.

On Tuesday, Trump threatened a NATO ally - the UK took no action.

Today, the UK supported Trump's military operation in the North Atlantic.

When will this govt stop appeasing Trump and stand up for the rule of law?

Unhook ourselves from oil and gas and we unhook ourselves from dependency on dictators, autocrats and expansionist regimes all over the planet.
Renewables and other low-carbon energy sources are not just good climate sense. They are also good political sense.

yeah, just what we need right now: more dependence on US software companies with strong links to #trump and full of right-wing nutters #palantir
Yet another huge contract, awarded without any competitive bidding process, to Wes Streeting's favourite NHS supplier, the Hard Right US surveillance tech specialists Palantir, for military decision making capability.
Palantir lands biggest ever UK defense deal
The £240 million contract with the Ministry of Defence has renewed a debate about Britain’s dependence on American technology.

“Reform is not asking people to join its party so they can work together to build community spirit and support each other in response to the problems they face. But that is almost 100% of the Green message. It is so positive to be part of a growing band of active citizens like ours.”

1. This short thread is about what I see as a serious breach of journalistic ethics, in the making of Sofia Pineda Ochoa’s online documentary Greenwashed. She interviewed me for the film, but neither before, during or after was I given any idea I would be its target. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjWU...

Clear-eyed reality check from @doctorvive.bsky.social
On the 10th Anniversary of the Paris Agreement, you’re going to hear a lot about the progress we’ve made — people saying we “are” heading to 2.5 degrees heating instead of four.

I deeply regret to tell you that this is complacent misinformation.

This is a remarkably tender hopeful play. By acting now as if a good future is possible we can bring it to life, unstoppably, and future generations will thank us. We need these what ifs to move us quickly from what is happening now and stop us tipping into silence 💚

Everyone's dunking on Polanski for this. But it's a sign of the general dearth of public intellectuals that there are so few good high-profile leftist economists.
Pinched this video from @cjsnowdon.bsky.social on Twitter because Bluesky has to see it.

Nothing can prepare you for the punchline here.

In 1968 Finland banned for profit education, the few private schools that exist in Finland have to reinvest any profit they make or pay it back to parents.

It has been in the Top 3 in education for the last 20 years.

There should be no profit in education or healthcare.
