Breaking News!

It appears that the UN is now using the method Richard Betts proposed and I use to compute the "long-term" global temperature with respect to the Paris Agreement. Which means the planet will be breaking 1.5C in 2026 or 2027 at the latest.

The Telegraph had to correct its multiple lies about "illegal immigrants" in London at least three separate times.
It takes an obscene amount of hubris to lecture the BBC when you have The Telegraph’s record on truth-telling.

Some of the paper’s errors this year are so bad they’re almost laughable 👇🏻

The climate crisis is all around us.

We know how to fix it. We have the technology. But Keir Starmer refuses to step up to the challenge.

So we’re turning up the legal heat:

This is absolutely appalling.

"The UK will not contribute to a flagship fund for the world’s remaining tropical forests, in a bitter blow to the Brazilian hosts on the eve of the Cop30 climate summit."

Absolutely pathetic.

We are constantly told by the media and authorities that these are both 'forest'.

One is a complex, diverse native ecosystem, full of life. The other is an industrial monoculture deadzone.

They could not be more different.

Those who seek to impose their will on others through military might and genocide, like Putin and Trump, are also those who will kill off whole ecosystems for profit.

The connection is direct and uncoincidental.

I think Peston should apologise for this outrageous framing. Not a serious show that any of us should be going on until this kind of nonsense stops.
Is the Reform MP who says she’s driven mad by TV adverts full of Black & Asian people a racist or realist? How many migrants would the Tories expel? & should the UK be selling fighter jets to Türkiye?

The UK government is asked yet again if it will ban the import of goods from Israel’s illegal settlements.

Foreign minister Hamish Falconer again defends Israel by refusing.

The UK says the settlements are illegal but allows trade with them!
