Wild life, ecological and social justice, resilience in diversity.
This is long overdue
I ask the Government when they’ll legislate for local supply rights.

We need an international “What do we do about the billionaires?” summit.

Their manipulation of our governments in the service of their insatiable greed threatens not only the quality of life of everyone on Earth but also the very survival of the human race.

Olá, Brasil! We've arrived at #COP30.

Industrial animal agriculture plays a major role in the climate crisis, so we're here to call for it to be given the attention it needs: bit.ly/4nLcrgQ

Billionaires and corporations are causing climate breakdown.

It's time to tax the rich.

Very proud my friend and colleague Alasdair Tollemache has entered a progressive agreement to join the Stirling Council administration! He will work hard to cut climate emissions and bills for Stirling's communities, improve buses, protect tenant's rights and restore nature💚

Let's stop subsidising destruction.

This Govenrment need to stop standing on the side of polluters and instead tackle the cost of living crisis.

The fact that the BBC has made serious culpable errors does not negate the point that there is a real and concerted right-wing media campaign to destroy it. Both points can be true at the same time and the campaign would not end even if the errors did.

Fascinating that Nick Robinson names Robbie Gibb as the instigator of the coup at the BBC

He was promoted to ensure that Brexit went ahead

He is the sort of shadowy character who is essential to the unpicking of democracy

This should be the end of his time on the BBC board

Do watch Rachel if you get a chance. Zack's rightly got the spotlight at the moment, but she shines with her own inner light.

Yes we've all felt immensely pissed off with the BBC from time to time

But it's clear that the attacks on it come from fascists and proto-fascists who want to shut down our powerful public-service broadcaster

For the sake of democracy we all need to defend the BBC as an institution

Interviewers are not always our enemies. It's their job to challenge and probe, and we expect them to do it properly with other parties.

I welcome seasoned interviewers putting Zack through his paces. It gives him opportunities to shine, and he does.

I'm saving my disgust for Clarkson etc.
Cheers!

We don't have to agree on absolutely everything.

But want lower bills? Think billionaires should pay more tax?

Crikey. He’s good. In fact, he’s exemplary.
No wonder the Greens are doing so well. Labour has no answer for this - they’ve been completely blindsided.
Now the Greens to need to step up too to deliver a ‘Cabinet of Polanskis’! ☺️

Elon Musk's Neuralink claims to have used a brain implant to make a monkey "see something that isn't there".

That's also pretty much the point of X these days. It's users are all experimental monkeys as far as Musk is concerned.
