OPINION: Once Palantir is inside our health service, it will be hard to get rid of. The NHS should think carefully https://t.co/kc6fOQEIAi

The UK Govt now allows 25 times more chemicals in our drinking water than the US does.

🚰 Should we follow their lead and tighten our regulations?

New #BankingOnClimateChaos case study: In 2010, gas was discovered off the coast of northern Mozambique, leading to a boom of LNG expansion projects that have led to displacement, immense violence, & will have massive local & global climate impacts. https://t.co/mduCZK1QzV

[Positive Money UK 🦋 @positivemoneyuk.bsky.social @PositiveMoneyUK]

5 UK banks made £37 billion off of higher interest rates in 2022.

Consumers have missed out on £23 billion from banks not passing those rates onto savers.

Yesterday, we needed @jeremy_hunt to #TaxTheBanks.

It's not too late to make him change course 👇

#FridayFact 📢🗳️

Millions of soldiers returning from the World War were not eligible to vote due to the property and residential qualifications at the time.

This prompted electoral reform in 1918, when the Representation of the People Act 1918 was passed.

We've learned that just last week, 5 people died self-inflicted deaths in prisons in England. The youngest was only 27.

Nobody should be dying in prison. We must urgently divert resources away from the criminal justice system and into communities to prevent future deaths.

The #CostOfLivingCrisis has impacted millions of us.

We've collected thousands of personal stories & shocking stats in our interactive map – and we're getting this to places where we know MPs can't avoid seeing it.

Here's just one example via The @Spectator

What difference do voters think @Jeremy_Hunt's #SpringBudget will make to their lives?

We asked @JLPartnersPolls to find out - the result was unenthusiastic, at best.

[Birmingham & Black Country Wildlife Trust @WTBBC]

Street trees and urban trees are SO important - for wildlife and wellbeing, for people and the planet. They absorb pollution, help keep us cool, give a boost to biodiversity, and they simply make our towns and cities more beautiful. We believe we need MORE urban trees, not less!

[Age UK Campaigns @ageukcampaigns]

Our new research shows that about 800,000 older people had left their home to use public spaces like shopping centres or public transport to keep warm.

People should be able to keep warm in their own home. A Government funded social tariff is essential
