To all MPs and esp those in govt- this bill in its current form has huge flaws- it needs fixing so it will actually protect our environment - please act to ensure it does.

Just a reminder that many would much rather the ‘renegotiations’ went much further- if you agree, please sign and share -if only to remind Labour’s leadership that the issue hasn’t really gone away. An increasing % of the UK never voted to leave. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...
Petition: Apply for the UK to rejoin the EU fully - do not just 'reset' the relationship
I think the UK needs to rejoin the EU fully for maximum economic benefit and to restore influence rather than merely 'reset' relations.

Time to show the dithering Starmer govt that we will not let the matter of the UKs future EU membership drop. #RejoinEU #Brexitshambles

Things we could do to improve public finances- and not hit the poorest, most vulnerable in society by resorting to Austerity2 #pip #taxation #loopholes #taxavoidance
Will UK Govt tackle corporate tax abuses?

Public Country-by-Country-Report shows companies shifting profits to places with little/no employees, physical presence.

In 2015 UK govt legislated, but didn't implement. In 2023, law repealed.

EU, Australia requires info.

Why won't UK chase tax abusers?
UK governments are failing to curb corporate tax abuses and leaving people to pay the price
Governments remain obsessed with austerity and choose not to inconvenience the rich or curb tax abuses by corporations.

Too many algorithms seem to push the alternative narrative of those either funded or tied to the polluting fossil fuel giants. Good to see this from the CBI www.edie.net/stalling-net...

I am pleased to see Rupert Lowe has installed solar panels on his farm.

It’s a shame Reform Party does not want ordinary people to benefit from cheap, clean, renewable energy.

Overfull prisons? There are those who have been locked up on very spurious grounds for lengthy periods. Keeping peaceful protestors locked up is surely an utter waste of taxpayers money and a democratic travesty?www.instagram.com/reel/DFSGIfb...

I’d suggest 2/3 of the British public are absolutely right!
It’s time to overhaul the system, time to put a strict enforceable limit on donations to political parties, and time to hold media moguls criminally responsible for lawbreaking designed to help sell their publications. #Leveson2

Saw this posted elsewhere:
For those on/still on FB it gives an insight into what Brexit may actually have been about- and why certain elites pushed so hard for it.

“To the financial institutions & industries backtracking on climate commitments, I want to say loudly & clearly:

You’re on the wrong side of history.

You’re on the wrong side of science.

And you’re on the wrong side of consumers who are looking for more sustainability, not less.”

Clean energy movements are gaining traction across the EU:

Citizen energy collectives in five EU member states (Bulgaria, Croatia, Germany, Greece & Poland) are making a difference in Europe's clean energy transition. Should we look to follow suit here in the UK? #energy

Just a reminder that this petition exists-
Be nice for more to sign it! - Would it annoy the mega wealthy like Musk, or even Trump, Farage and Putin if we rejoined, and reclaimed our place? petition.parliament.uk/petitions/70...

Why don’t we (our govt) just go for the sensible option with the EU?
Surely they aren’t blind to the economic damage of the #Brexitshambles ?
Left: Rachel Reeves is celebrating £125 million a year in extra trade with China

Right: Your reminder that Brexit has cost the UK £13.5 billion in trade

To make up for the lost UK-EU trade, Labour needs to find 108 similarly updated trade deals
