Climate is my thing, followed by a deep dislike of dishonesty / bigotry / lies and dark money in politics (often climate related).

I do not understand the Labour government's reticence over defending the BBC and social media regulation. Their long-term survival basically depends on it. Their cowardice in the face of it may be the single thing they are most remembered for.

What was the damn point of the shutdown? People missed paychecks, families went without SNAP, and Democrats walked away with nothing.
This isn’t about moderates versus the far left. It’s about who’s actually fighting for people who are struggling.

Climate change doesn’t create these storms: it makes them worse. They intensify faster, reach higher strengths and dump more rain.
That’s why climate action isn’t just about saving the planet: it’s quite literally about saving US.

What would happen if everyone switched from Windows to Linux.
It's a general problem with super-rich elites. The reason why some are so rich has more to do with luck than skill. And the way our society is rigged, which rewards the lucky ones. People seem to cowtow to them who use their wealth to gain even more power. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
