Boris Johnson is back off his holiday. A holiday he's been taking while Parliament has been sitting.

So he's been getting paid his MP's salary for representing his constituents while lounging on a beach?

And this man has the audacity to pretend he's on your side...

@c_brown88 @GreenpeaceUK Try reading the article, click on links and you'll find it was Oxford University.

[FrackFreeLeeds @FrackFreeLeeds]

Even if it wasn't a bad idea, even if it wasn't a fossil fuel, there is no proof fracking would work. Poland was recognised as the place in Europe most likely to succeed in fracking, but all the big companies have pulled out. Bad Idea.

I've just signed the petition to BAN FRACKING FOR GOOD - Please share and sign - @UK_Nanas https://t.co/yH9HJ5MCln @action_storm

@CBartSullivan @ClimateHuman Deputation to your council, we need community food growing, like in WW2, community energy, binding citizens’ assemblies, massive investment in true Green tech, no more burning fossil fuels, admission from govt that Biomass from trees is not carbon neutral, insulation…..

It’s not so much a cost of living crisis as a result of greed crisis

[Richard Burgon MP @RichardBurgon]

If we put a 10% tax on wealth over £100m, we would raise £69 BILLION.

That could be used to put an end to the cost of living crisis and ensure nobody is unable to heat their home or is living in hunger.

It's not that the Tories can't do this. It's that they choose not to.

@AdamBienkov @BiancaJagger Heckling at hustings is nothing unusual, but here we see knee-jerk politics at its best.

[FrackFreeLeeds @FrackFreeLeeds]

If only we could vote for SNP in Yorkshire. This is who we need as leader of the opposition.

It is vital we discuss the F word or we risk facing regret forever.

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

The fossil fuel industry is in the process of inconveniencing you about a billion times more than any climate activist

[Greenpeace UK @GreenpeaceUK]

FUN FACT: Private aircraft emit more greenhouse gases than the country of Denmark.

Anyone else think the lifestyles of the super rich are a threat to planet earth?

[FrackFreeLeeds @FrackFreeLeeds]

@TalkTV @JuliaHB1 @crisortunity I see a scientifically literate guest being talked over by a climate change denier who is only succeeding in making herself look more uneducated every time she speaks

[FrackFreeLeeds @FrackFreeLeeds]

So true, it’s time we changed our tactics.

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

Scaring, guilting and/or shaming individuals is commonly perceived to be the most effective way to motivate them to engage in climate action here on Twitter. But as I explain here, such approaches backfire more often than they succeed. https://t.co/N0oLSSD7l1

[Frack Free Dee @FrackFreeDee]

The government is reviewing the fracking moratorium after pressure from MPs, the industry and the right-wing media.

Join us to remind them that we're still here.

Fracking has no social licence. If it returns, so will we ✊

@officialimicca @XRebellionUK @stephenfry If you’ve got the answer then do it.

[Extinction Rebellion UK 🌍 @XRebellionUK]

"We need government's to realise - this is the most serious crisis that humanity has ever faced."

💚 Thank you @stephenfry for telling the truth 💚

This is a #ClimateEmergency
We need everybody.
Don't be a bystander. Join the rebellion

[Debt For Climate @DebtforClimate]

Why is #DebtForClimate essential right now? @EstebanServat talked about this with @GeorgeMonbiot in his "Monbionsis" series.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

Every fraction of a degree of global warming matters.

Every day matters.

Every #ClimateAction matters.

[António Guterres @antonioguterres]

The only true path to energy security, stable power prices, prosperity & a livable planet lies in abandoning polluting fossil fuels - especially coal - and accelerating the renewables-based energy transition.

Renewables are the peace plan of the 21st century.

[Clean Creatives @cleancreatives]

🚨 Yesterday young creatives from @cleancreatives had a question for @Shell's brand CEO at the @FemaleQuotient #CannesLions2022 #equalitylounge:

Why does Shell say they support women when their actions have destroyed so many women's lives?
