December 1st is the international day to recognise, remember & stand with those who have experienced HIV and AIDS.

Let’s all pledge to call out the ignorance and bigotry that can leave people feeling excluded. Let’s stand against the bullies and with the bullied.

Let’s focus on love, not hate.

Living Wage Foundation:

“We use a public consultation method…asks groups to identify what people need to be able to afford as a minimum. This is fed into a calculation of what someone needs to earn as a full-time salary…then converted to an hourly rate.”

Imagine how far the £2.5billion announced for nuclear today could go if it was invested in energy communities.

Very good to meet the new Leader of the Greens 💚💚 in England, @zackpolanski.bsky.social

Good debate, plenty to build on. Key messages: get out & build communities; unity is strength; inclusion / defend minorities under attack; FOR a left social programme; real independence.

Just finished reading this. Deeply concerning to consider where free ports and more free market solutions could take us. It’s also good to know that there are people all over the world in movements that want to deepen democracy and control the worst excesses of capitalism. I stand with them.

Great to have two government ministers with us from two different governments at the Community Energy Wales conference in the Centre for Alternative Technology, discussing how community energy can help to address questions many people have about green energy.
