Geographer. Photographer. There really is a climate emergency. Save UK's democracy before it's too late. Don't buy from Amazon. #Patternsoflife#FreePalestine
"Yorkshire rivers polluted by over one billion litres of sewage in two years."
That the same @YorkshireWater who 'loaned' £940m to their owner without approval from regulator, or any real kind of repayment plan or any kind of security been offered? 🤔

David Cameron can't appear in Commons
Tory ally Andrew 'Plebgate' Mitchell MP is going to speak for him instead
Last yr Mitchell's MULTIPLE EXTRA JOBS netted him MORE THAN £300,000+
3 of the firms (inc private equity) owned by Tory donors.
Nothing changes in Tory world...
After disgracing her office as Attorney General and twice disgracing her office as Home Secretary, the Bar Standards Board should now consider whether Suella Braverman’s hateful, divisive rhetoric and record of undermining the rule of law is compatible with membership of the Bar.
David Cameron lobbied to get Greensill loans from the Taxpayer.
They were paying him £1m a year for 25 days of ‘work’.
Less than a year after securing more than £5bn from the taxpayer they went bankrupt.
But not before Cameron sold his shares and made another £7m.
The Ukrainian government says 19, 500 Ukrainian children have been stolen by the Russians.
@C4Dispatches has exclusively obtained research showing over 260 locations across Russia where the Ukrainian government allegedly has evidence that Ukrainian children have been held.
This is happening all across the world. I have a Palestinian flag in my window. Postman knocked on my door, said I was brave. I asked why. He said he's from Newham and police are interviewing people for showing a Palestinian flag. I told him I look forward to a conversation with them, and my flag is not moving. I also said, my kids and grandkids march almost every week end.... he was so pleased... and just said 'respect'. Don't be intimidated. ANYWHERE. EVER
Amongst others. It’s harrowing what is happening over there, while the world watches.
Thank you for asking me to attend last night, you know who you are 3/3
It’s 4am … I listen to BBC world service. The says it’s a living hell. Children walking in circles shocked, silently screaming, made unrecognisable by 3rd degree burns. There’s no aid, no medicine, no medication available. Now they scream in agony, stumble like the walking dead. Why aren’t we seeing or hearing this in the main News Bulletins? It should be played every time the Archbishop speaks. Every time our rulers say there’s no alternative. Every time Netanyahu states, with the clarity of the lying ghoul he is, ‘There’s no humanitarian emergency in Gaza’,
I’ve just seen a video of injuries resulting from a “small bomb” dropped on the car park of the Al-Shifa hospital.
The footage of an aftermath of a “small” IDF strike, maiming those in the vicinity of a hospital, will live with me forever.
A man loses his leg, screaming in agony. He was probably waiting for loved ones inside the hospital. Or seeking shelter.
I swear I will not rest until every single politician in my county is held accountable for facilitating and excusing such unbelievable crimes. Every journalist. Every public figure. They must be held to account.
Israel is not Netanyahu
Palestinians are not Hamas
The protests demanding a ceasefire are not hate marches.
The Home Sec must stop pitching community against community and emboldening fringe elements by making strawman arguments which she knew were simply untrue
4. Here’s the problem.
This Friday sees the @UNHumanRights SOCIAL FORUM take place in Geneva Switzerland. Who have they made the chair of this event? The IRI. It is beyond offensive.
The UN 🇺🇳 have been asked repeatedly to revoke IRI chairmanship for this event - 92,000 have already signed a petition to do so - but so far nothing.
The IRI regime is being allowed to operate without censure. UN 🇺🇳 sanctions do not work either because when you sanction a country you expect behavioural change. The IRI have not changed their behaviour one iota in 44 years. Sanctioning them is like being attacked by a group of zombies and politely asking them if they would consider a vegan diet.
