The fundamental problem for Sunak is very few voters blame ‘green crap’ for high energy bills. Only 17% do, in fact; 14% of crucial Con-to-Lab switchers.

Despite years of certain media banging the drum trying to force the connection, this is as true now as ever (right is 2022).

A poignant moment from the ICC Prosecutor's CNN interview: 'I had some elected leaders speak to me and be very blunt: 'This Court was built for Africa and for thugs like Putin'... We don't view it like that.'

We're witnessing a battle for the soul of international criminal law.

Sunk criticises ‘environmental dogma’ as he is drenched by rain calling the General Election

Rain that scientists today confirmed today was much heavier and more prolonged in UK over the last 18 months because of climate change

Who’s the one who is really being dogmatic, Rishi?

Had a long conversation with my mom about the potential implications for my career of my Palestine activism, particularly on campus and in direct confrontation with my university’s racist administration.

My mother is a person who has lost a lot of status in her life…

🧵Shocking reality of the Brexit inland border checks at Sevington, 22 miles from Dover.

The experience and facilities seem designed to be as intimidating, dehumanising and unpleasant as possible.

He sounds drunk to me. Drunk perhaps on the dictator's powers he's proposing. This is Lord Walney (John Woodcock), the unelected legislator trying to shut down what remains of rights to protest.

The central point in this piece is entirely correct, but I do wish columnists who airily dismiss climate change and our response to it in a single sentence were subsequently required to file at least 10,000 words on what they'd do instead. ft.com/content/9d5e51…

Another timely defeat for the government, this time a judicial one rather than an electoral one. Its latest half arsed climate plan (the CBDP), which replaced the last one because it was ruled to be unlawful, has also now been ruled unlawful news.sky.com/story/governme…

Do I agree with every word in every statement, every choice and every tactic? Maybe not. But I am moved by their maturity, persistence and grace. These aren’t kids. These are leaders. (10/10)

Does not bode well for the rest of the 2023-4 farming season, nor that beyond it.

Society must get to grips with what climate change will mean for our food supply.

I was a third-year college student before this genocide started, but I'll never be able to finish my studies because Israeli occupation forces bombed my university and every other university in Gaza. Thanks to the brave college students who are protesting and advocating for us,
