Belly full, in her nest of soft pillows and blankets, warm, safe and loved. There is nothing like breathing in her peace and contentment. Everything vanishes in that warm glow. My best times!

What a relief!

Absolutely FABULOUS news for all life on Earth, especially the Amazon rainforest!!!! Despite the fascists playing every dirty, cheating trick in the book to steal this election, the people of Brazil saw through the lies. So, so, happy and relieved this morning 🇧🇷 👏 share.google/UdpzcSkD5us7...

I feel sorry for the escorts.

As a gay man I have absolutely no problem with politicians being outed if they use their position to harm the LGBTQ+ community. You reap what you sow - and everyone deserves to know your hypocrisy.

I remember when the advice in case of a nuclear strike was to draw the curtains and hide under a table. Plus ça change!

George Monbiot@georgemonbiot.bsky.social

Sure, we should, if we can (many cannot). But as I keep pointing out, the government itself is making no provision at all. No stockpiles, no back-up, no alternative sources. It's individuating the response to a collective problem, and that never ends well. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Burnham is as bad as the rest of them for all his posturing as a man of the people. In the pockets of gas and oil. Shame on him. I will never vote for them again.

Today's decision by Labour to approve new drilling in the North Sea is climate vandalism. It's a betrayal of all of our futures, and Labour has abandoned all credibility in the fight against climate change. This is a victory for Shell over the people. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cw...

Kowtowing to the oil industry. Shame on them.

It was coming. Different faces, different presentation same old bowing down to vested interests of oil and tech. Very discouraging.

George Monbiot@georgemonbiot.bsky.social

Approving the Jackdaw gas field solves none of our problems, while contributing to the existential crisis of climate breakdown. The government has privileged special interests above the general interest. It's a shameful, cowardly decision.

I hope the UK government will stop dreaming that the USA is still our ally or that things will go back to normal once trump is out.

The the Institute of Economic Affairs is an anonymously-funded neoliberal think tank whose alumni appear on the BBC virtually every day of the week without viewers having a clue whose interests they represent, in flagrant violation of the BBC's own editorial guidelines. #PoliticsLive

The days of 'going along to get along' are fucking over. We're done watching Dem's pretend we can just move forward after the Rapepublicans ignored the Constitution, committed crimes against humanity, and completely lost their collective minds. We want consequences. We want justice.

What sort of insanity is this?

Such rare integrity and bravery, and in such contrast to so many who've opted to stay silent on the genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians because their personal careers might suffer. www.rte.ie/entertainmen...

The writing is on the wall despite traitors like Watson bleating to the contrary.

George Monbiot@georgemonbiot.bsky.social

Palantir didn't have to evade the UK's controls on lobbyists to get astonishing, unminuted access to government ministers and officials, or even to hire them to lobby their colleagues. Why not? Because there aren't any. My column. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The witch is dead and has been for sometime, but her evil legacy lives on in the neoliberalism she embraced. She was a terrible human being.

Parody Nigel Farage@parodypm.bsky.social

On the birthday of Margaret Thatcher, let us take a moment to remember what a cruel, heartless piece of shit she was.

Coming to a field near you.

Ireland has the highest concentration of water and power ravenous, pollution-spewing, data centres per head of population in ALL Europe. We need to unite and fight this.

Really? We don't need data centres, we need the natural world. We have lived as a species without AI up until now. We do not need to be more efficient or productive or live longer.

Eoghan Daltun 🌍@irishrainforest.bsky.social

Data centres are a cancer on nature and local communities. Yet their electricity consumption in Ireland is almost 10x the European – and well over 10x the global – average.

The braying British media, including the BBC, could not wait to tear this man apart. Bunch of sick right wing sycophants.

Adam Bienkov@adambienkov.bsky.social

The contrast between the utterly sycophantic coverage this week of Kemi Badenoch, whose party has a truly atrocious electoral record under her leadership, and the utterly dismissive coverage of the Greens, tells you everything you need to know about media bias in the UK

As wonderful as that day will be, it won't be over. Vance is still there with his best friend Thiel and the rest of them. They will not concede power. The whole system is rigged in their favour.

You are missing something: we convict people on the basis of evidence.

Parody Nigel Farage@parodypm.bsky.social

This two tier policing is disgraceful. It's as if there is one approach for people who helpfully film themselves committing crimes and another approach when there is insufficient evidence.

This is spot on. It seems like appeasement and permission to continue in our own merry way.

Eoghan Daltun 🌍@irishrainforest.bsky.social

Why must it always be about planting trees, when they managed just fine for 100s of millions of years before people came along? Just let them seed out. Yes, planting does have a role, but so often the underlying subtext is continued human domination of nature. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Good riddance. Go move about where taxes don't get in your way.

Another entitled knob has left the country. 😢 "While there will be many other reasons that so many other wealthy individuals have quit Britain, for me not being able to move around the city as I needed to was the clinching factor." — Sir Peter Lampl www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/09...

If you think the tech bros are going to give a penny of their money for UBI you are deluded. They'll use the money to protect their bunkers and shoot down the plebs. No to AI and data centres.

Vote Green.

Zack Polanski@zackpolanski.bsky.social

Labour are planning to extract more oil and gas from the North Sea despite the thousands of deaths from excess heat this summer. We cannot allow them to win in Holborn & St Pancras and think that they can get away with this. Vote Green. For our communities and our planet.
