I never understood what people have against Freedom of Movement.

"I have a particular responsibility when it comes to taking back control, it is to end the free movement of people once and for all"

No to Rosebank. No to Jackdaw. Now.

We don’t need a “delay”. We need it to be rejected.

Everybody can see the devastation caused by the climate crisis over the past few months.

Anyone that’s been paying attention should be completely against anything that’s gonna make things worse going forward.

It's capitalism or the planet. It really is that simple.

[Oli Dugmore @OliDugmore]

cute emergency alert sweetie but have you considered decarbonising the grid

[brixton hatter @BrixtonHatter]

The current policy response to climate change appears to be:

- drill more north sea oil
- slow down the phasing out of petrol & diesel vehicles
- spend £30 billion building new roads
- build hundreds of massive data centres which require huge amounts of water and power

Slowly losing hope about humanities ability to act in its own interest.

England's New Forest is burning

But the New PM has absolutely nothing to say

[Oli Dugmore @OliDugmore]

A government treating climate change seriously would:

🚒 recruit more firefighters, paid and equipped properly, reopen closed stations
🛢️no new licenses for oil and gas, definitely no fracking or “clean coal”
⚡️ decarbonise existing energy system (~10% reduction yoy)
🦫 extensive beaver Rewilding programme + other flood strengthening of infrastructure
🍎 build council small holdings, in pursuit of food sovereignty
🐄 big reduction of meat in diets
🌾 total rethink of agricultural economics + subsidies

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Still gobsmacking that Andy Burnhams response to the deaths from the climate crisis has been to pledge to try & stop the sale of single use barbeques.

A monumental mistake.

Time to do the right thing.

Fund our firefighters & say no to new oil & gas.

Do they realise not everyone with mental health issues is unemployed and those that are still deserve access to help without likely threats from the DWP?

Even if there isn’t we need to treat it like an emergency because IT IS!

[Lavender @Lav_Muse]

This is going to make me sound like a crazy person but if there IS another heatwave right after this one when do we start demanding the government treat it like an emergency
