The President is lying to the public:

Excellent summary of how terrible Tesla's sales are in Europe over the last few years.

Call US Senators and tell them to vote against the SAVE Act. It has already passed the US House. In its current form, it means that 100 years after women earned the right to vote, we are facing down the implementation of a 21st century poll tax for women.

BBC headline utterly failing. ‘The saga of a £165m rail line that keeps causing travel chaos’

It’s not the rail line that “keeps causing travel chaos” its the shifting climate with more prolonged and intense rainfall and more frequent storms leading to landslips and the sea wall being washed out.

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

Trump’s EPA can’t simply erase climate change — and we’ll all pay the price
On Thursday, the Environmental Protection Agency reversed its “endangerment finding," which found that greenhouse gases are a threat to human health.

BREAKING⚡️The High Court has just ruled that the government's draconian ban of Palestine Action was unlawful. This is a massive blow to the Home Office’s authoritarian approach. They need to stop criminalising people protesting a genocide and start ending the UK's complicity

“Jim Ratcliffe’s comments were outrageous. They are offensive and they were deeply wrong. We do have a problem in our country, and that problem is inequality. It’s not immigration.”

Scientists warn we are edging towards a “point of no return”, where climate tipping points could push us into a hellish “hothouse Earth”. Every fraction of a degree matters. We must urgently cut climate pollution from coal, oil and gas and scale up clean energy.

4/12 If your enemy desperately wants you to do something, you should probably do the opposite.

When autocrats and oligarchs scream about "over-regulation" in Europe, it is not because they care about our economy.

It is because our rules stop them from looting it

Fascism is the cult of suicide.

Until recently, America was one of the few large nations *not* facing population & then economic collapse.

Why? Immigration! People wanted to come here.

Now, we’ve lost ~7 million future people over the past year because Trump is stabbing the US with a rusty spoon
The UK faces a demographic disaster. By 2030, if net migration falls to 0% then the UK total population will top out at 70m.

That means more old people and fewer carers.

According to one think tank it also implies a reduction of GDP by 3.6%.

There is no reason the Home Office could not apply the same humanity to other refugees and migrants - instead we get this pointless, performative cruelty.
