Hey, Suella, leave them kids alone. A school's job is educate children, not force them into religious worship. Keep Christian Nationalism OUT of assemblies, classrooms, and the curriculum. Agree? Sign our petition today 👇 humanists.uk/action/keep-...

It's a small step from this to having to perform a special salute. We must stop them.

Well worth reading all of this. If only this level of expertise was provided with all news reports.

1/23 Sorry, this will be long... There is a lot of shouting about what happened in the Channel yesterday. So I want to go back to basic law. Not immigration policies or political rhetoric. At sea, the starting point is simple: Preservation of life comes first under all maritime conventions.

www.theguardian.com/world/2026/s... I'm sad for this guy. We shouldn't be in this position as a nation. However the UK are happy to break up families and deport settled, contributing people to countries they haven't been in since they were children. Why should Sweden be different? We warned you.

Comparing what Dolly Parton did with her wealth and influence to people like Musk, Bezos etc makes me feel sick. What a world we could have if more people were even a fraction like her. Thank you Dolly, for the music and for the wonderful example.

Imagine pouring petrol all over the place and the government’s response was to…ban matches. Yes, we need to ban disposable BBQs but if that’s the sum total of the emergemcy meeting that’s pathetic! It’s like announcing a boost to the NHS by buying a box of plasters!

Govt planning c. 100 new data centres by early 2030s, mostly in already water stressed areas. They have no legal obligation to disclose how much water they use. Meanwhile Govt launches £75m publicity campaign to urge us to reduce water use & privatised water companies waste 19% thro leaks. Madness

Half of the country is in "exceptionally serious drought" - putting us at more risk of wildfires and threatening our food security. Meanwhile water companies are wasting a staggering 2.87 billion litres of water every day through leaky pipes. Time to end water privatisation.

When the story of why humanity didn't stop climate change is written, it will feature front pages like this. Even as the skies blacken with climate change-induced wildfires, right wing media continue their relentless crusade against measures to tackle it.

Reform have now lost six by-elections in a row in England, Scotland and Wales. Their national poll rating is 26% – below Labour in 1983 – and Farage’s approval rating is -37. They’re very far from the voice of the people and need to stop being treated as such.

This is insane. This is the government’s “independent” advisor on antisemitism. He sees four antisemitic cartoons targeting Zack Polanski. His response? To demand an end to the antisemitic targeting of Polanski? No. It’s to attack the Green Party.

Extremist is the death and destruction that Benjamin Netanyahu government brings on a daily basis. Extremist is them introducing the death penalty for Palestinians. Extremist is this apartheid, genocidal Israeli Government that our Government shamefully supports.

America not being a signatory to a number of treaties does not mean that international law does not exist. The US is conducting clear war crimes, and boasting about it. They should be treated as a pariah state. They definitely shouldn't be getting a Royal visit.

Headlines claimed last year that Britain was experiencing a ‘spiritual revival’. This was based on a report by the Bible Society. Following our analysis, the poll has been declared fraudulent, and we're pleased to see this correction make headlines. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Our dependency on fossil fuels makes us vulnerable. Wars across the world are pushing up prices for households in the UK. Why keep waiting for the next crisis? We need to transition to clean power as fast as we can to protect people and our economy. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

FACTS: Net Zero barely nudges your bill. Fossil‑fuel wars send it through the roof. So when Farage and his ilk slags off renewables while fanning conflict, remember who actually hikes your costs.

Loki's Servant reposted

The choice is stark. Reform are the party of foreign wars and high bills. The Greens want de-escalation and energy security through renewables. Solar and wind prices don't fluctuate when rogue US presidents launch illegal bombing campaigns.

If you have a Royal Family, you have deference. If you have a Royal Family, you have a class system. If you have a RF, you essentially say, "These people are better than everyone else by dint of birth & should maintain enormous influence, wealth and power." Why would anyone want that at all?
