Oil companies are *the bad guys* and really by this late stage it should be impossible for their senior executives to show their faces in public, because they are actively working to kill us all and salt the earth for future generations just so they can have more money than they can ever spend

Does First Past the Post make all votes equal? No.

But does it give voters a fair choice? Nope.

So does it lead to popular governments? Absolutely not.

Ok, but does it protect us from extremism? Also no.

Does it at least guarantee stability? 😬😬😬 No.

Unbelievable - Thames Water wants to pollute ILLEGALLY for the next 15 years

If they get away with this, other water companies will copy

There is a key moral distinction between immigration policy on new arrivals, no matter how draconian, and on people who have already been granted status, on set conditions. It is about being a country that keeps its word. If we're not that, we might as well fucking give up now.

Oxford Labour's position on the congestion charge is so disingenuous.

They want the benefits of the congestion charge to just magically happen without any policies to deliver them. 🤷‍♀️

If Nigel Farage is the next Prime Minister..

Because Reform won over 325 MPs with just 25-30% of the vote (likely 15-20% of the electorate…

THEN WILL PEOPLE GET IT?

Our elections don’t work.

And it’s now a national security issue.

Patriots want fair votes.

Where is the moral panic?

Where are @lisanandy and @Keir_Starmer?

Or are we saying Rod Liddle can use his national platform to call for state violence and it’s fine

But if Bob Vylan chants about actual state violence it’s “incitement”?

At least try to be consistent.

Tree fans! Go and water a young / small street tree if any nearby. 40-50L ideally but all water welcome. Tough week for trees. I can do 4x40L in my cargo bike which doesn’t cover much of my division.

And it anyone in Oxfordshire is up for doing it regularly LMK as you can become a Tree Guardian.

Climate mitigation and adaptation measures are not costs. They are investments.

The true costs occur when mitigation fails and adaptation is too slow so we suffer from continually worsening extreme weather events like heatwaves and floods.

Invest now to reduce costs in future.

my hottest educational take is that schools should actively, non-punitively teach students how to admit when they don't know something, aren't sure or have made a mistake, with various teaching frameworks adapted to support this ideal, because people who can't admit fault are breaking the world

Scientists who study climate don't automatically attribute all changes to human activity. Rather, we carefully investigate every possible natural factor that could explain the planet's warming.

Could these be the real culprits?

The evidence is in--and the answer is NO.

BBC muzzling one of its best presenters from making an excellent, wholly factual programme because heat pumps are “controversial”. An organisation badly in need of new leadership.

During the inevitable Man U love in / crisis analysis on the beeb build up this afternoon, I highly recommend switching to @cottagetactico.bsky.social 's latest YouTube analysis. More insight. More Fulham. It's a no brainer.
It’s MATCH DAY! 🖤🤍

And a massive cup tie for Fulham. I’ve picked out how we can try to get Utd’s backline dragged out or isolated in bad matchups as one thing to watch here 👀

That and much more in my #MUNFUL tactical preview over on YouTube 🟥

Fulham are quite good. Haven't drawn them in a while. So we're drawing them. Won't be good. Probably quite scary. Strap in 🧵 #FFC

We'll start with Adama Traore, fresh from pulling a tugboat up a slipway on World's Strongest Man.

Why does 25% AfD among young men spark a thousand "what is going on with young men?" posts yet Die Linke 34% among young women generates...nothing at all?

Yes, young men voting for the radical right is an important phenomenon. But so is young women going rad left *at even higher rates*.
