Looking forward to reading the smallprint of the UK Govt's new proposals about animal welfare. It's easy to be cynical when you need the whole system to change.
I'm already rolling my eyes at the shadow chancellor's declaration that it'll facilitate imports from less protected settings.

No capitulation to Russia. It would be criminal for Europe to capitulate to the "deal" from Trump/Putin that delivers Putin everything he wanted without any acknowledgement of the crimes he has committed.

Here are the faces of the Heroes who gave their lives for Ukraine
Here are ordinary people who did not want war -they wanted to live.But when Russians came to kill us,they stood up to defend their country
This is the price Ukraine is paying

While I agree that the best thing for the planet and ourselves is going vegan, insisting on total veganism is really, really tough. I've been vegan since 2019 and living in rural areas at the mercy of small rural supermarkets is tough unless you like eating the same things repeatedly.

1. The Daily Express should eff off.
2. Celebration is often an act of rebellion that says 'We survived, no matter what you tried to do to us.'
Starmer's Labour are never, ever going to appease the fascist media until they're shooting people on beaches and stealing the gold from their corpses.

The eye roll comes from a woman whose parents fled Egypt to the UK and who, as an adult, moved to LA as an economic migrant.
Why are these people platformed and never called out for their massive hypocrisy?
I'm so sick of it. Here's to all those who challenge that narrative.

A Government of cowards.
Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.
They can't get away with this.

It makes me feel all weepy when social & environmental justice are the top of the agenda. Only been waiting all my adult life for these conversations.
Social justice and environmental justice are one and the same thing.

I'm at that point in life where Mary Maloney's tactic of ringing a bell to drown out "politicians" saying ridiculous things seems like a sensible step forward. I'd happily stand behind F*rage and clang every time he spoke.
Whether I could keep it to bell ringing is another thing entirely.

I've really noticed that supermarkets and restaurants are making it harder and harder to access vegan produce... fewer varieties of beans on the shelves; removing entire vegan product lines; stocking the worst-tasting stuff and removing popular lines...
We've got to improve access to vegan food.

Good for you. Good for animals. Good for the planet. What's not to like?
Starting by reducing meat, dairy & eggs in one meal a week helps ease the shift. If every adult on the planet had 1 plant-based day a week, that'd be a huge step in the right direction

Switching from an omnivorous to a vegan diet can reduce daily greenhouse gas emissions by 46%, while also lowering land and water use and maintaining nutritional balance.
Vegan diet can halve your carbon footprint, study finds
Only around 1.1% of the world's population is vegan, but this percentage is growing. For example, in Germany the number of vegans approximately doubled between 2016 and 2020 to 2% of the population, while a 2.4-fold increase between 2023 and 2025 to 4.7% of the population has been reported in the UK.

Hannan and Frost in the Telegraph.
Sunak in the Times.
Kwasi Kwarteng in the iPaper.
Johnson in the Mail.
Gove editing the Spectator.
Farage everywhere.
All of them shamelessly honking out their ‘Listen to me!’ garbage, as the country flails around in the unbelievable mess they’ve made.
Nauseating.

Protecting wealth comes from people who view the wealthy like my dad behaves with assets: losing as much as possible as quickly as he can.
In reality, most people seem to act like my stepdad with assets: hoarding their own, accumulating it from others and using services he could pay for.

Being vegan isn't a purity test.
If your whole reason to eat meat and dairy is you can't quit kippers, and that's justifying eating bacon, cheeseburgers, cake and full Englishes, be vegan except for the kippers and cut out the stuff you can leave behind.
I wish we'd stop seeing it that way.

Who cares? Who cared when the vacuum man went to Singapore?
They weren't paying taxes properly anyway and they profit enormously from this country, like Branson, like Dyson. Just fuck off and go then. You were already cheating the country.
I'm happy to pay tax to support the UK.

Former Head of Comms for the IEA, Annabel Denham, says the super rich will leave if we have a wealth tax.
Yes, the very same IEA that brought us Liz Truss’ disastrous mini budget. 🤦🏽♂️
Green Party leader Zack Polanski explains that their taxable assets can’t leave. #bbcqt

Idk why people are surprised at the tylenol / autism thing.
The man literally proposed that we could use disinfectant to kill covid in our blood or get light into our bodies somehow.
Anyone would think there was another big drama to throw a cloud of obfuscation over.
