I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

EU investing €546 billion for high speed rail by 2040

E.g. Lisbon to Warsaw, from 38 hours today to 12 hours

Pricing to compete with low cost flights

Reduce emissions by 80%

Jokes on them, they don't have Brexit sovereignty 🤷‍♂️

I spent a really long time amassing everything you need to know about Labour's vast deals with fossil gas-loving, Trump-donating AI giants out to pepper the world with climate-wrecking data centres...so you don't have to!

My reporting for @desmog.com 📖👇
The sheer scale of Labour's deals with Trump-donating Big Tech firms has been seriously under-reported.

Not only are they being allowed to build climate-wrecking data centres, they've also been given permission to embed their tech within Whitehall, the NHS, and defence 👇👇

Independent investigative journalism that truly sits outside of the established system allows the media-political class itself to be scrutinised. How can we understand the world we live in if we won't ask difficult questions of those framing it?
