Every glaciated region on the planet lost ice for four years in a row now. From 2023–2025 alone, glaciers lost around 1,400 gigatonnes of ice, equivalent to roughly 560 million Olympic swimming pools (the official weird measure for anything water related). Source: bit.ly/WMOStateofWa...

Sign to tell “the government to stop stalling about regulating political donations, and put a cap on… It also needs to get better at enforcing existing spending rules and clamping down on people trying to disguise the true source of a donation.” Please share r.ippl.es/donations-cap/

The BBC used to be a trusted source of unbiased information. We need it to be again. An independent and credible appointment system for the Board would be a good start. Political placements should have no part in the running of what is meant to be an independent institution.
Why are so many people falling for misinformation? A new study suggests the biggest danger isn't outrageous conspiracy theories – it's claims built around a grain of truth that feel plausible. That's what makes them so persuasive.

“Exam factory” is not a metaphor – it’s the UK system today. Over two decades, academisation turned schools into marketised engines generating human capital, not curious citizens. Norwich educators want to buck the trend. It's time to rethink education writes Cllr Gary Champion.

There's a big myth at the centre of the "reindustrialisation" narrative. Truth is, despite our global strength in Services, we're still a manufacturing giant too – placed 6th or 7th in the world, before France. The biggest threat to that is actually our absence from the Single Market. #RejoinEU 🇬🇧🇪🇺
