We must stop mega-donors from warping our democracy. A ban on annual donations over £5,000 would cut the influence of big donors on our politics and protect the interests of ordinary voters. Sign the petition secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/162623/...

Two rash promises made by Labour last year are preventing it from achieving its other key promises (such as higher economic growth and no austerity). They are the promises
- not to raise income tax on anyone
- not to rejoin the European single market & customs union

Time for a rethink!

GB News actually aired commentary likening "the LGBT flag" to Nazi imagery (content warning)

If Bluesky showed you notifications on stuff you reshared as well as your own posts, there’d be more incentive to reshare more. I like seeing how things are doing out in the wild.

Climate change by any other name is still climate change.
Government censorship can change or hide or remove words and reports, but will do nothing to alter the science and real impacts.

Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power.

New analysis: If four UK airport expansions including Heathrow are allowed to go ahead, they will cancel out the carbon savings of this government’s clean power plan IN JUST FIVE YEARS. This government must cancel these planned expansions.
