Absolutely repulsive. People should be jailed for this. What kind of fucking country are we.

[Gordon 🇵🇸 / rent controls fan account @istreasatuatha]

no one in involved in this in any capacity thinks palestine action are terrorists - the actual question is whether you think destroying civil liberties and democracy is a price worth paying to protect israel's right to murder children, and the entire labour party thinks it is

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

27 people — including a priest, professor and health workers — were arrested today under terrorism laws.

Their crime? Peacefully holding signs opposing genocide.

This is how we sleepwalk into fascism.

I live in a country that gives military support to another country which is killing thousands of civilians while proscribing an organisation which protests about it.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Really important Labour are not allowed to pretend this is all Rachel Reeves fault.

We have a Prime Minister & an entire party who chose to protect wealth of the super rich & target the poorest and disabled.

No wonder the entire country wants a totally different politics.

The tongue of Rhone #Glacier ten days after my last visit. Can you guess how much ice melted away? 1️⃣ meter in terms of thickness! 1️⃣0️⃣ days... And that's just the beginning of the summer season.
We know the times are bad for the ice, but still it is hard to accept these numbers!

I’m genuinely shocked that this incredibly ill thought law has succeeded. When I worked in a hospice, we had to fundraise approximately £10,000 a day to keep it fully functioning. To see this bill succeed before palliative care is fully funded and available is almost unbelievable.

I don't want the UK to be ready for war, I want us to have functioning hospitals.

I don't want the UK to be ready for war, I want us to have well funded schools.

I don't want the UK to be ready for war, I want us to have an effective and compassionate welfare system.

[Climate Dad @ClimateDad77]

I'm old enough to remember when the IPCC was warning we would hit 1.5C by 2040.

That was 3 years ago.

Now there's a chance we'll see a yearly average above 2C by... 2030.

And from our 'leaders'... tumbleweeds.

Farage, crowing over his results, repeatedly says Reform will stop local authorities spending money on “climate change”.
What Farage is saying that he doesn’t want you to be protected against what is coming. If Reform gets its way, there will be zero strategic climate adaptation.

[Dr Jill Belch @JillBelch]

This is so sad
UK is one of the most nature deprived countries in Europe.
There are so many empty houses & flats. Use them 1st
And brownfield sites.
All the #Nature charities saying this is wrong.

[Jen Deacon @JenDeaco]

This is terrifying

🚨 BREAKING

Police have raided a Quaker meeting house and arrested six young people meeting to discuss concerns about the climate crisis and the Gaza genocide.

On 27 March, more than 20 officers - some carrying tasers - reportedly forced their way into Westminster Meeting House in central London.
According to Quakers in Britain, the officers “broke open the front door without warning or ringing the bell first, searching the whole building and arresting six women attending the meeting in a hired room”.
Paul Parker, recording clerk for Quakers in Britain, said: “No-one has been arrested in a Quaker meeting house in living memory.”
“This aggressive violation of our place of worship and the forceful removal of young people holding a protest group meeting clearly shows what happens when society criminalises protest.”

Dear @BBCNews - none of these answers are correct.

King Charles MUST cancel this UK #Trump visit. Does anyone want to see our monarch in an embarrassing photo opportunity with the baby bully currently inhabiting the White House after tonight’s disgusting tantrum? Surely no matter what our struggles we are better than that?!

[Climate Dad @ClimateDad77]

A politics & media in the pocket of genocidal fascists, polluters emboldened to “drill, baby, drill”, billions exploited by poverty, bile & grotesque overconsumption.

As our life support systems die in plain sight.

Our civilization is committing suicide. https://t.co/loAaSnNT7O

Bad news from Bumblebee Conservation Trust.

THE MOST IMPORTANT CLIMATE ARTICLE SO FAR THIS YEAR ... 4 BILLION DEATHS.

If you have not read it yet you need to. You will notice that buried in the middle of the article is this: "At 3C or more of heating by 2050, there could be more than 4 billion deaths". And you will also notice the title is about the money - not the human deaths. If you needed any convincing this civilisation is totally fucked then this is it.

I am writing from prison to ask for your support in raising £50,000. While imprisoned, I will remain fully committed to continuing the work I was doing before I was arrested—the creation of a global nonviolent revolutionary movement opposing the greatest crime in human history.

Unfortunately, people still don’t realise what #HeathrowExpansion actually means. FIVE rivers will be diverted, which is unprecedented. Here’s one of them – the Colne Brook. The M25 and local roads would also be diverted.
