PPE Medpro, the company owned by Baroness Michelle Mone and Doug Barrowman, owes HMRC £39 million in unpaid tax. This debt is owed directly by the now-liquidated company. It sits on top of a DIFFERENT £148 million (including interest) that the firm was ordered to repay. What's happening?

Let me try this once more. It was a choice. EITHER the Greens adopted a slogan. OR they could have joined the next govt, where they could push for an end to arms sales, sanctions, support for the arrest warrants etc. It was never going to be both. Which one makes a material difference? #GazaGenocide

Voyager 1 is running on less memory than a single photo in your camera roll—69 KB. Its data is saved to an 8-track tape & software was developed when "the cloud" was in the sky. NASA sends commands and the old thing answers. And yet your brand new laptop freezes because you opened too many tabs.

As former Labour minister Tom Watson joins Palantir, please read this devastating exposé by @petergeoghegan.bsky.social & @lucasamin.bsky.social of how the company, with Peter Mandelson's help, wormed its way into the UK government to sell its dire & dangerous products. www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v4...

The world has gone mad! Folks getting arrested under the UK Terrorism Act for holding a sign that said "I oppose genocide" 🇬🇧 That is fucked up! The majority of those arrested have been pension aged women, often with disabilities. Do these folks look like terrorists? Shame on you England. #Free 🇵🇸

Sanctions on illegal settlements are an important and long overdue step. They must now be followed by an end to all UK arms sales to Israel. We cannot claim to stand up for Palestinian rights and against genocide, while continuing to supply weapons to the state violating them.

Ed Miliband is being urged to go further and 'use every diplomatic and economic tool' at his disposal to stop Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestine 🗣️ 'British-made arms components fuel ongoing genocide in Gaza, continuing to kill and maim civilians'

80 year-olds with pro-Palestine signs: arrested as terrorists. Greens planning to block a road, to highlight an existential crisis: sent down for years. Masked far-right thugs blocking roads and ports, using intimidation, obstruction & threatening behaviour: no arrests. The real two-tier policing.

Last year, the Scottish Government voted for a Green motion to boycott Israel. A year later, they have taken no steps to end Scotland's complicity in genocide. It's time to the Scottish Government to turn words into actions. 🇵🇸

Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.

If @andyburnham.bsky.social were Prime Minister during the Blitz: "There is an urgent problem of bombs falling on London. They appear to be coming out of the sky. We convened a COBRA meeting to discuss it. The root causes of this problem are not something I am prepared to discuss." #ClimateEmergency

"The right to protest is fundamental to our democracy". As long as the protest is not about Palestine, climate or any other issue that major lobbyists want to shut down. If you're protesting about asylum seekers, on the other hand, your concerns are legitimate, and we're making policy in response.

Sunder Katwala (sundersays)@sundersays.bsky.social

This is a really inadequate Home Office statement in these circumstancds It empathises with this protest as expressing legitimate concerns, singles out violence against police, and simply fails to say "violence threatening asylum seekers, migrants & other minorities is shocking + wrong"

Crop yields down, our countryside scorched and over 2800 people are dead due to this summer's heatwaves. Meanwhile fossil fuel giants are raking in record profits. We must end this rampant profiteering, and cut fossil fuels from our energy mix as soon as possible.

Government policy on data centres was written before ChatGPT existed. We urgently need a pause on new centres until we can develop a clear national approach that puts an end to the corporate free-for-all. Scotland must work for people and planet, not just tech billionaires.
