The dangers of opening a naming contest to the public

@VeryBrexitProbs They don’t just profit from the climate misery and chaos they create, they cash in on war too. Since the Ukraine war began, five oil giants have made almost half a trillion dollars in profit.

@xruiztru Surprised Ireland so high and US so low

Eight oil giants made $42 million every hour last quarter.

Meanwhile, Europe burns🔥

Make polluters pay.

[NXT EU @NXT4EU]

In the summer, Europeans travel around the continent, this map shows where Dutch people are traveling with their car, a part of the European identity is being able to travel around our continent, with ease. No border control for Europeans, no roaming charges, seamless travel. 🇪🇺

[Very Brexit Problems @VeryBrexitProbs]

Fox News says Ceuta is on the "BORDER OF NORTHERN SPAIN".

They're not stupid. They're just not checking and they're not checking on purpose.

[Curiosity @CuriosityonX]

Ah yes, the Mediterranean. Famous this decade for its idyllic wildfires, water rationing and 45°C summers. Sign me up.

Quite possibly the stupidest argument ever committed to newsprint.

What's next: Britain can't stop global crime. Scrap the police and embrace the Wild West.

[🚨Indian Gems @IndianGems_]

Colombia reduced temperatures by 5°C by planting 880,000 trees along the streets of its cities.

[Very Brexit Problems @VeryBrexitProbs]

They're not confused about where Ceuta is. They need you frightened. Frightened people donate, share and vote the way they want them to. Frightened people do what they're told.

So a Spanish city on the coast of Africa became "northern Spain" 40+ million times.

Every election needs a serious candidate. That's why I'm standing against Nigel Farage.

Vote Binface for Clacton 🗑

[puřdo watch (anti-hibernočeský aktion) @leap_dog]

that's genuinely insane

Proud to be European 🇪🇺✊🏼

[Urban Cycling Institute 🚲  @fietsprofessor]

In 2007, removing cars from the city centre of #Ljubljana🇸🇮 was deeply controversial. Shopkeepers feared, residents worried, drivers felt threatened. Now 𝟗𝟕% 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤.

Experiencing change can dramatically shift support!

Reports that Binface is currently leading Nigel Farage.

Interesting...

Vote Binface for Clacton!

[Very Brexit Problems @VeryBrexitProbs]

UEFA meets tomorrow. There’s only one acceptable outcome.
Not a statement, not “grave concern,” not a strongly worded letter.

@UEFA must boycott every FIFA competition, until the sale of football to Trump’s crooked MAGA goons is dead. FIFA is nothing without Europe.
