"Miliband was right to highlight the threat that climate breakdown poses to our national security – though the full extent of these threats, highlighted by UK intelligence agencies in a report last year, have never been fully released." Adrian Ramsay asks: where does Labour stand on climate?

Honestly, I'm starting to wonder how *any* other party will be able to compete with this level of corruption, and such loose finance regulation That postal vote letter Farage sends us every year full of lies? Expect more of that Against the 'elites', fighting for the little guy? Yeah, right

Nigel Farage suggests the police advised him against attending the result of the Clacton by-election. Essex Police completely deny this, telling the BBC "we have a proportionate and robust policing operation to ensure the safety and security of all participants in the count"

Reform voters could blame the abysmal Manchester result on - stories of Nigel Farage corruption - stories of Reform councilors resigning - stories of Reform council U-turns & broken promises But they won't Because most pro-Reform posters are bots! meme via Post Cummings Effect

To be clear, the orange felon lied about vandalism at the Reflecting Pool to pretend he didn’t hire his fellow criminal fraud contractors to deliberately destroy it because he’s a hateful trashy jealous vindictive fuckwad. It wasn’t flawed work, it’s exactly what he wanted.

Bordeaux, France, has now recorded more days above 40°C in 2026 alone than during the entire 105-year period from 1920 (when observations began) to 2025. This is deeply shocking.

Green Party members! You should have had an email (I got mine on the 16th of July) titled "Booking now open for Autumn Conference". In that is a link to the agenda that includes all the policies potentially being voted on at conference. I recommend looking at the accompanying briefing papers too.

I've always said i would welcome Labour when they do the right thing, and today's business relief for venues and pubs is a welcome respite for an industry at the heart of our communities.

As the owner of several AMC theater franchises, you can imagine I'm extremely left wing. But I bet you didn't realize I'm so left wing that I'm willing to bleed thousands of dollars every time I show the Odyssey to an empty IMAX theater to create the impression that a black actress is pretty.

Hard to think of a more deeply damaging start to Burnham’s premiership than giving green light to new oil & gas in N. Sea, if true. It won’t lower bills or lead to greater energy security but will drive an even hotter planet. What a terrible signal to give to rest of the world #ClimateVandalism
