“The judicial system must wake up and begin to play its shamefully neglected role in defending us and other species from rapacious billionaire class climate criminals – the ruthless corporations that extract vast profits and other benefits as they trash and pollute with impunity; industries and businesses that destabilise and devastate entire environments and now threaten our beautiful planet’s biosphere, our one and only life support system. Life and survival before greed and profit! We need a global Fossil Fuel Nonproliferation Treaty right now.“ - Rajan Naidu

Mahmood and Starmer are “weaponising” the appalling Manchester synagogue attack to further restrict our right to protest. We can't let that happen.
