How is this fine calculated ? The merest slap on the wrists for a party with millions to spend. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

How has it taken 6 years to reach this conclusion? We knew this in 2020! How are Hancock and Johnson not in prison? Tens of thousands died as a result of their failures and their lies were accepted by too many. #CV19 #ToryLiesCostLives www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

“A party accused of plotting how to get around the law is now promising to impose a “national emergency” so that judges and officials will not get in its way. That is a telling and ominous reveal about how Reform understands power” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Verbatim's 30 minute film on their expose of RefUK's somewhat casual relationship with the law on political donations. Gold dust. youtu.be/RugPik-G1Jw?...

Climate change was the 100% cause behind the Nepal disaster. Watch this excellent video explaining the precise causes of the mountain faults that were kept together with ice acting as cement. This area’s air is warming up 5x faster than global average temperatures, melting this icy cement.

Data centres are springing up everywhere, using massive amounts of energy and water. I’ve signed @friends-earth.bsky.social’s petition calling for a pause on new data centres until the government gets a grip on the situation. Will you join me? action.friendsoftheearth.uk/petition/put...

A massive plastic pellet spill is threatening North Sea wildlife 🌊 Coastal communities are stepping up, but we need action. Join us and ask @andyburnham.bsky.social to launch an emergency response & hold polluters accountable! #NurdleSpill #StopPollution action.friendsoftheearth.uk/petition/tyn...

What the actual hell is Farage on about? “Being treated like a war criminal”? Don’t be even more ridiculous than you already are. Go and sort your manifesto out in your idiotic fight against Count Binface. And open up your finances to investigation like the supposed non-criminal you claim to be.

Andy Burnham has a chance to fix our broken political system now, before it is too late. Introduce proportional representation, give everyone an equal vote and an equal voice in our democracy, and make sure no politician or political party can afford to take them for granted ever again.

And there it is… www.desmog.com/2026/04/30/r...

The usual reminder..... This isn't the new normal. It's just the beginning www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

The attempt to portray a man with a bin on his head as the establishment is almost as hilarious as the claim that Nigel Farage is not the establishment.

Daily Mail poll going hilariously south for Nigel Farage.. www.dailymail.com/news/article...

Seemingly Cottrell's mum has donated £1.5m to Refuk / Refuk-linked entities. Which seems a lot for a 'retired stylist' whose deceased husband left her a £1.5m estate. Reminds me of how Farage's gf could fund that Clacton house... There is no suggestion of any wrong-doing though. Or right-doing.

An utterly nonsensical decision from The BBC British nature is under enough attack without cutting one of the best wildlife programmes out there Sign the petition now and demand a reprieve @chrisgpackham.bsky.social act.38degrees.org.uk/act/don't-ca...

Why is nobody on @c4news.bsky.social asking which private company is responsible for tagging of released prisoners? How do Serco and all the other failing contractors getting billions in public service contracts escape scrutiny? This system of private providers is broken.

We only have a few days to email our MPs and tell them to back the cap on political donations. I've done it - will you?https://goodlaw.social/947607

We could reach 3C by 2070

Everybody in the "climate space" (which means everyone on earth...) needs to understand these mind-blowing figures. Google's "total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025." In ONE year. The AI corporate arms race is eating the world.

Nigel Farage: half a million promoting gold, £5 million 'reward' for Brexit, £100k for Cameo videos. While people are struggling, Farage is grifting.

The Times (via Politico): "Christopher Harborne, who has given Reform £15 million and Nigel Farage personally £5 million, owns a jet fuel company that sources from refineries using large volumes of Russian crude oil."

37% of new heavy trucks sold in China: now fully electric. Not delivery vans — 49-tonne heavy-duty rigs. This one swapped ~550 kWh in just 5 mins. Competitive, proven & inevitable. China's heavy EV truck sales surged 182% YoY in 2025, rising from single digits just two years ago.

What do politicians need to see before they ACT? #AgeOfStupid

"So that's Theft, Fraud, Financial Misconduct, Political Misconduct and Misconduct in a public office. That's just the EU. In the UK, all of the above plus Treason, Money Laundering and Tax Evasion. The list probably goes on but that's enough of a start. Criminal Filth." via Timothy O'sullivan

All arms of government and all political parties who care about truth and decency should follow this example immediately.

Two billionaires who live abroad are planning to sidestep the Government's £100,000 cap on overseas donations. It's clear we need to kick big money out of our politics entirely with a donations cap. Please sign the petition. secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/194728/...

Humans should not be forced off pavements by delivery robots, but that's exactly what's happening. The people who pay the price are those with the least room to give it up.

A quarter of terror attacks in Britain over the past decade have targeted Muslims, but some have gone largely unnoticed because of delays formally declaring them terrorism Most jihadist attacks, by contrast, have been declared within hours of taking place inews.co.uk/news/uk-terr...

"The London Ambulance Service responded to the highest number of life-threatening emergencies in its history on Wednesday" No-one can say this is a surprise. Governments have been warned of this by me and others for years - if not decades We need action NOW www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

NO! It's going to keep getting hotter year-on-year, decade-by-decade Until we stop pumping out greenhouse gases and positive feedback loops and tipped tipping points have finished with us And the temperature will stay elevated for many thousands of years www.theguardian.com/world/video/...

The reality is that successive governments have done bugger all in terms of preparing the UK for today's much hotter climate. let alone what's coming Nothing less than a war-footing is going to cut it, and even then future decades are going to be grim www.theguardian.com/education/20...

Our climate in SE England will mirror what Paris has now before 2050. Or worse if climate action isnt taken now. Meanwhile we need to follow the French in planning for heat waves. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Ten years after the Brexit vote, the bill is brutal. Britain has paid for Nigel Farage’s lie with two million fewer jobs, £27bn in lost trade, an economy up to 8% smaller and costs estimated at £90bn every year. 1/2

After ten years of the Conservatives’ Brexit experiment, the British public have had enough. Nigel Farage pocketed a £5 million ‘reward’ for the damage he’s caused, while the rest of us are paying for it dearly. It’s time to end the chaos and fix our broken relationship with Europe.

Ten years ago today the whole country and its future were sacrificed on the altar of Boris Johnson’s ego, David Cameron’s stupidity and Nigel Farage’s prejudice. A decade thrown away and a nation left angrier and poorer. Thanks, you absoute pricks.

Nigel Farage pocketed a £5 million Brexit reward. When he promised we would be better off, he clearly only meant himself. 10 years on, it's time to end the chaos and fix our broken relationship with Europe, starting by joining the single market.

It's the 10th anniversary of the dumbest moment in modern British history so let's celebrate some of the idiots who made it happen. First up ... Jacob Rees-Mogg and his promise of cheap food and wine... In fact food prices have increased some 12% as a direct result of Brexit (LSE) 1/5

Lib Dem Leader Ed Davey has unveiled a billboard campaign across the UK to mark the 10th anniversary of the Brexit referendum today. The billboards call out Reform leader Nigel Farage’s £5 million "reward for campaigning for Brexit, whilst people across the country feel the pinch."

Great framing. Farage is a grifter.

Anyone would think these heat waves have just come along from much of media coverage. But they were predicted. A long time ago now. And nobody acted. #AgeOfStupid

10 years on, the very same politicians who caused the Brexit mess say nobody can dare try to fix it. We say enough. It's time for a bold new deal with Europe to make Britain safer, richer and stronger. Watch our new film here ⬇️ youtu.be/ihdhBLT6YYM

Exactly 10 years since the Brexit vote, the verdict is in.

David Frost accuses Starmer of not thinking hard enough. Give me strength… www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Elon Musk spent $290 million getting Trump elected. During this midterm cycle, he's spent $85 million. In total, that’s 0.0375% of his $1 trillion net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

We simply need to rejoin with all the normal rules of the club. We’re losing £100 billion pounds a year because of Brexit, according to Bloomberg.
