We're just getting started.

This is the politics of the 99% Vs the 1% for a country we can all afford to live in - plenty of room to grow.

"How long until Mandelson ends up in a high-paid consultancy somewhere? While another washed-up former Westminster insider ends up in Washington?"

@zackpolanski.bsky.social reacts to the resignation of Peter Mandelson, appointed by Keir Starmer as ambassador to the US.

Inspiring how resilient #nature can be. This tree by the Orange Tree was cut down, and twice when it resprouted it was cut back to the bare trunk. Yet here it is today. @richmondcouncil.bsky.social please leave it alone this time: it's not doing any harm & is a sign of hope in worrying times.

Beavers were once seen as a nuisance—now we're rushing to reintroduce them for their climate benefits.

Funny how the 'troublemakers' turn out to be the saviours. Maybe it’s time we treated climate activists more like beavers—and less like pests.
Could beavers be the secret to winning the fight against wildfires?
First, they were pelts, then pests. But now they are emerging as something else: climate heroes.

When will Starmer learn that no matter how good his Nigel Farage impression gets, it won't save him from wipeout at the hands of Reform? Here's another idea - how about doing the work that's needed to actually make people's lives better? 🧵

Happy #AwfulApril everyone 🙃

Energy bills ⬆️ to nearly £2k
Water bills ⬆️ 31% in some areas
Basic food prices 📈

All affect the poorest worst.
All ON TOP of Govt cuts to support for pensioners, children, disabled people.

These are political choices. Labour could have chosen a #WealthTax

If, like me, you're new to this platform, have you considered joining @thegreenrunners.bsky.social? We have 3,000+ members (including Jasmin, Paris, Kilian Jornet, John Kelly) and none of us are perfect, but we do care. The bigger we are the more we can do. Thank you 💚🙏

People who have an abundance of money (more than £10m) won’t have to give anything up if we have a tiny 2% wealth tax (just £200k on £10m) they won’t out on anything. But we could raise a shed load of money to spend on the stuff that needs it - hospitals, schools - even tanks and bombs.

In March 2024, Jasmin Paris made history as the first woman to finish the Barkley Marathons, touching the yellow gate with just 1:39 to spare.

"The Finisher" follows her three-year journey, featuring insights from legends like Lazarus Lake, Jared Campbell, Courtney Dauwalter, and more.

“Want a chair?” a spectator asks.

“No..chairs are for finishers,” John replies.

In the howling wind and rain, John Kelly completes a “Fun Run” at the 2025 Barkley Marathons in 39 hours and 50 minutes. Afterward, he takes the ceremonial bugle and plays his own taps.
