Kate Wilson was deceived into a relationship by #spycops officer Mark Kennedy. She fought a 10 year legal battle to get answers, eventually forcing the police to give her huge amounts of secret reports. The courts ruled that not just the sexual abuse but the broader political spying was unlawful. 🧵

In Canada, 1 in 3 people who chose assisted dying said they felt like a burden.

This is what happens when care collapses.

The UK is heading there fast. The warning signs are everywhere.

Charlie Hallam reports.
The end of life bill: the side-effects
When benefits are cut and care collapses, and assisted dying has official approval, might the disabled be drawn to suicide?

Martyna Ogonowska, at 14 was r*ped. She had PTSD and carried a knife for protection.

In 2018, in a car park Filip Jaskiewicz sexually attacked her, she stabbed him.

Judge Farrell QC sentenced her with murder because she protected herself. Same Judge who blamed an 11 yo for her r*pe.

“When Reform are unfortunately managing to sell the lie that tackling climate change is somehow going to be bad for ordinary people, it’s really important that we Greens challenge that – and I am worried the Labour government is backsliding on climate policy,” says @carladenyer.bsky.social.

Always fun to meet campaigners (and get out of the dusty corridors), but esp scientists who do so much to explain the mess we are in and how to improve it.
Plus it's always a bonus to see @chrisgpackham.bsky.social

Solar panels on all suitable new homes is a win-win-win: cutting bills, cutting emissions, and making the UK more energy secure. We've got a vanishingly small window of chance to prevent climate breakdown & we need to take every chance we can get to bring down emissions.

Time is of the essence; every new build in this country could have had solar panels in 2016, but that was dropped by a previous government.

When I talk to my constituents, they are puzzled as to why new homes are being built without solar panels. I wholeheartedly support the Sunshine Bill.

Patients, carers and staff are hurting now. We don't need to wait years for a report to confirm what we already know. The Government must act now.

Here's what the Green Party would do to fix the social care crisis:
