When Junior Doctors are on £16 an hour and MP's are on £46 an hour.
And raising the Junior Doctors pay by £4 an hour is unaffordable, even though they just raised MP's pay by £5 an hour.
It's hard not to see the lie.
RT if Junior Doctors NEED paying.
I just took part in The Big Plastic Count, as we’re still producing far too much plastic. @_RobbieMoore, will you lead the way at the negotiations for a Global Plastics Treaty and push for a cut in production of at least 75% by 2040?
🚨 NEW: The Chancellor told teachers and nurses they couldn’t have a pay rise that might stoke inflation. But what kind of pay rise did landlord Jeremy Hunt award himself? We found out.
Enough is enough. Suella Braverman's article in the Times is dangerous, divisive, and shows she's unfit for office. @RishiSunak must sack her now. Agree? Add your name: https://t.co/n3kCFJsJ6g
🌍🌍If you haven't been to East Africa in the past 3 years you might not pay attention to this post.
Today, i want to delve into the severe drought crisis in Eastern Africa, which has dire implications for millions but very few people actually pay attention.
1/ 🌧️🌧️Large areas of Ethiopia, Somalia, and Kenya are currently grappling with one of the worst droughts in recent history. An alarming 16.7 million people face acute food insecurity, surpassing the combined populations of Austria and Switzerland.
2/ 🌦🌦️Since late 2020, Eastern Africa has experienced four consecutive failed rainy seasons, an event not witnessed in at least 40 years. This meteorological drought has depleted soil moisture, dried up waterways, and resulted in the loss of millions of livestock.
3/ 🌧️🌧️The Horn of Africa relies heavily on two rainy seasons per year, with the long rains from March to May being particularly crucial, contributing 70% of the annual total. This year, the delayed and failed long rains have exacerbated the crisis.
4/ ☔☔ Unfortunately, the short-term outlook is grim, as forecasts suggest that the upcoming September to December rainy season may also fail. If this happens, we could face an unprecedented five-season drought.
5/ 🌽🌽The ongoing humanitarian crisis triggered by the drought raises serious concerns about future food and water security in the Horn of Africa. Climate change, as per the latest IPCC report, is projected to further strain the region's food systems.

We must reconsider our role on this planet🌎if we are unable to conjure empathy or feel the weight of these catastrophic events.
1. Maui is burning 🥵
2. 55 people have been confirmed dead
3. A hundreds are still missing
4. Infrastructure worth billions of money have been destroyed
Thanks to climate change
Thanks to the fossil fuel industry
I implore each and every one of us to take a moment to reflect on our responsibilities. We cannot stand idly by while our planet suffers, while communities are torn apart, and while lives are lost. We must demand change and put an to fossil fuel ⛽️ now

This is what it feels like to be alive as we approach the end of the world as we know it. There is time to avoid the worst but it means every single one of us becoming activists. Leave it to other people and we are toast. Listen to David Attenborough who warned us time and again
"our behaviour as humans is often like toddlers. We grab, we don't follow common sense and we certainly don't recognise that the earth is our support system."
@GreenJennyJones explains why constant, economic growth isn't possible on a finite planet. #environment
Today, after yesterday's #IPCC report, everything is back to normal – as always. We continue to ignore the climate crisis as if nothing happened. Our societies are still in denial, and those in power go on with their never ending quests to maximise profits. We cannot afford this.
Has the @bbc actually analysed @GaryLineker’s tweet? Because it is factually accurate. A lot of the tropes used now by Govt: ‘invasion’, ‘menace’ etc, are pretty similar to those used by nationalist parties in 1930s Germany. Why no analysis? Are BBC history presenters muted too?
Long-term exposure to air pollution is linked to higher blood pressure in London teens shows study. Teens from racialised groups exposed to higher concentrations of pollution.
More reasons why we need to take climate justice seriously 👇🏾

Coal mines are a thing of the past - we don't need a new one. It’s a disaster for our climate and won’t help skyrocketing energy bills. We already made the PM U-turn on fracking & onshore wind - let’s show the public opposes this too. Sign now:
