Just think of what could have been avoided - not just in Venezuela but Iraq, the Niger Delta, and across the world - if we all used clean energy instead of oil.

If you're in your 20s let me tell you that living through this moment while being old enough to remember the invasion of Iraq is CRAZY

When people argue that renewable energy sources are too expensive, remember that we don’t invade countries to seize wind farms and there are no solar cartels. Fossil fuels have enormous geopolitical, public health, and climate externalities.

It's a good day to say that embracing renewable energy can provide countries with energy independence 👍

The furore around Alaa Abd El-Fattah's tweets are how certain politicians convince ordinary people to support the removal of their own rights

For years I've tried to copy Brigitte Bardot's casual style. She had this way of making outfits that would look plain on anyone else the height of chic. Her politics were appalling and represent everything decent people should oppose. She died a fascist in the end.

If you are in London on 2 January, go and see the best and most disturbing horror film ever made. Don't read anything about it in advance, just go and see it.
FRIDAY NIGHT FRIGHTS kicks off 2026 with SPOORLOOS (THE VANISHING) on Friday 2nd January at 20:45. Stanley Kubrick called it the most terrifying film he'd ever seen - and it’s easy to see why.

I have this flu that is going around. It started Tuesday eve and I expect to be 95% recovered by Saturday at the current rate. This is the difference a flu jab makes. I really can't recommend one enough.

True, it's also significant because Egan was a lay member not a union official. That's a first for Unison, I believe. I don't follow union politics as closely as I used to, but it was my understanding that the right faction won Unison's NEC elections so I wasn't sure Egan would win
It’s frustrating seeing journalists reporting on the Unison General Secretary election primarily in party political instead of trade union terms. Andrea Egan won promising to raise the expectations of public sector workers. That could well have a big industrial relations impact very soon.

This is very consequential for Keir Starmer and it's good news for Andy Burnham. This shifts the balance of power on Labour's NEC and it means Starmer loses a very significant union ally www.politicshome.com/news/article...

Rob Reiner, as I found out just a few weeks ago, was vocal in his support of the first Stonewall March in texas, all the way back in 1977, made his support of queer rights VERY public when it was not even a little bit fashionable to do so.
Rob Reiner was one of the key people behind the effort to go to court to overturn California's anti-marriage equality Proposition 8 when it passed in 2008.
Working with Chad Griffin, they founded the American Foundation for Equal Rights and got Ted Olson and David Boies to team up to fight Prop 8.

The news of Rob and Michele Reiner dying in such a terrible way coming the day after the Bondi attack is just too much. And on the first day of Hanukkah. The weight of terrible things happening for no good reason can be a lot to bear sometimes. May their memories be a blessing

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.

Rob Reiner: I'm going to make a coming of age drama, a fantasy adventure story, a romantic comedy, a psychological horror and then a courtroom drama.
Us: Across your entire career?
Reiner: In a 6 year period.

Reiner: -Each one will be arguably the best movie in that genre.
