Oil giant Equinor has just resubmitted a new application for Rosebank. For the next 30 days, the UK government is asking the public what they think about the Rosebank application. Now's the time to have your say! #StopRosebank

Still buzzing and feeling inspired by yesterday's @makethempay.bsky.social protest! Gary Stevenson's speech that now is the time to place pressure on the government for a wealth tax has given me hope. The next protest will be on October 10th. Let's grow this movement! #MakeThemPay #ClimateAction

Leading global scholars sign letter urging UK to end Palestine Action ban
Exclusive: Naomi Klein and Angela Davis among those demanding stop to ‘attack on fundamental freedoms’ of assembly and protest

Letter: Palestine Action ban is an attack on fundamental freedoms
Naomi Klein and Angela Davis are among dozens of international scholars and writers who have signed a letter to the Guardian calling on the UK government to reverse the ban on Palestine Action.
The letter applauds what it describes as a “growing campaign of collective defiance” against the ban and commends the “courageous stand” of hundreds of people who plan to risk arrest by declaring their support for Palestine Action during a mass protest in London on Saturday. Continue reading...

This morning, whilst listening to my music collection on shuffle, a great tune by Bonnie “Prince” Billy came up that I wanted to share with my partner. To my surprise his album Down The Road is not available on Spotify, because Oldham, in his own words, is "offended by Spotify’s existence".

The right to a trial by a jury of your peers is a fundamental part of the UK legal system.
To take this away would be yet another nail in the coffin of democracy.

I saw Marie Davidson do an incredible DJ set at Glastonbury, and there was a tune that stood out with the lyric of "electrify me". I couldn’t find the track, so I tried contacting her, and today they emailed me back with the details! Now I just need to find this as a digital download of it.

What’s the odds on “a major social network has an antisemitic AI built into it” being raised by lobby with PM’s spokesperson today? A special DCMS committee? Ofcom launching an emergency investigation? Seems it’s so hard to comprehend that people will just focus on more manageable screaming at BBC.
It would be nice to, among other things, get an answer from the UK government about why they still feel comfortable using this as one of their primary communication channels
