Did you hear about the National Emergency Briefing? - with the latest evidence showing that the UK must urgently prepare for a cascade of serious societal impacts from the rapidly escalating climate and nature crises.

No? - not surprising as the media barely covered it - www.nebriefing.org
This is not the video I had planned to make.

Yep, all too often the devising is used and useful.
Agree with you Matt
Every time I hear a politician say that an issue is “dividing” this country they always then come down on the side of the right wing view of it. Just once I’d love to hear someone say “this issue is divisive, which is why I’m making the argument that kindness and compassion is important”

Reminder recent growth in Green Party membership is not due to paid for media
COP30 is being flooded by fossil fuel lobbyists — more than any country delegation except Brazil. While other parties take their money, we never will.

Help us stand up to dirty fossil fuel money and demand real climate leadership. Donate today.

Most n my media is owned by big corporations.
This isn’t yet - though they do put on right wing hate mongers onto current affairs programs far too often .
But that CAN be rectified. Selling off / disbanding CAN’T
The BBC needs defending - from outside forces like President Trump and his propaganda values, and from current and future political appointments to its Board within. I raised these huge risks to our national asset with the Culture Secretary this week:

It’s also 15 years since the Equality Act.
Celebrating 25 years of the Human Rights Act with the brilliant @libertyhq.bsky.social at the House of Lords hosted by Lord Alton.

The ECHR is much more than a treaty. It’s a quiet promise - a shield against abuse of power, a lifeline for the vulnerable, a declaration of who we are as a nation.

#Leicestershire, is this what you expected when you voted for a billionaire funded new party saying it would bring in DOGE style savings?
The Reform UK Councils that are considering raising Council tax (one even by 10%):

Kent
Durham
West Northamptonshire
Warwickshire
Leicestershire
Worcestershire
Staffordshire
Lincolnshire

TBC:
Derbyshire
Lancashire
Eight Reform UK councils likely to raise tax next year
Despite Nigel Farage’s promises to cut waste and ‘save a lot of money’, senior officials have now admitted they will likely have to resort to tax rises

Well done Zack for stopping by and not making snap judgments,
I think there is more recognition of the Russian bribe scandal than if you hadn’t mentioned it in Question time ,

@zackpolanski.bsky.social stopped by #Handsworth yesterday and was welcomed by @edfreshwater.bsky.social of #BrumGreens in front of the #BenjaminZephania mural to show what a vibrant, diverse, integrated neighbourhood it truly is.
Don't let anyone tell you #Birmingham is not multicultural and proud!
October 11, 2025 at 7:03 AM
This needs to be highlighted.
Keep talking about it
Seems @Nigel_Farage is trying damage limitation on the Reform Russian Bribes scandal.

He’s known Nathan Gill for 20 years, and claims he knew nothing.

No one believes you, Nigel.

Keep the story moving. Questions must be answered.

Schrödinger immigrants, both coming over living in ‘our’ houses and hotels, and working and living off the state! As Zack says a smokescreen, who really caused the difficulty getting a Dentist appointment?
“You can’t blame austerity on one hand, but then say it’s the immigrants. The immigrants haven’t caused austerity.”
