Clarkson’s paranoid nightmare: He sees visions of Meghan Markle clones - foreign immigrants roaming the new town built over his children’s tax-free inheritance. A disheveled old giant stands there throwing faeces.
Trump and MAGA GOP have given birth to a new degenerate USA run by corporate billionaires for corporate billionaires
"The United States is now poised to become an authoritarian state ruled by plutocrats and fossil fuel interests. It is now, in short, a petrostate"

Hospital league tables are nasty, simplistic, retrograde & counterproductive. They will demoralise staff, generate cultures of fear & fail to value all that is unquantifiable in healthcare - kindness, compassion, humanity, discretionary effort. My piece:

"We can hit the UK's big carbon cuts without disruption to peoples lives" versus reality:
"On our current path, civilisation as we know it will disappear. If we meet current commitments only – net zero by 2050 – perhaps some form of humanity will survive, managing the challenges of continued extreme weather events, ice loss, and sea-level and temperature rises." Sir David King, former Chief Scientific Advisor to the British government. 27th May 2024 in The Guardian. (Presumably Sir David knows what he is talking about more than a lawyer).
Humanity stands in the darkest valley — caught between denial and panic, waiting for the catastrophe that will finally break through our apathy.
Resist, whilst you still can.

If you made $53,000 a day or $20 million per year since Jesus was born you would still not make the profit Shell made in 2022.
It’s time for Shell to Stop Drilling and Start Paying for the climate damage they’ve caused.

Ever wondered about the power of lobbying?
The Uk has a v powerful gas lobby and you can see how effective they are on this graph.
Change is inevitable but gas lobby add cost, delay & confusion for everyone. Bad for climate, economy, health. So UK falling behind everyone else.

Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak refused to provide 10,000 extra beds to the NHS that would have helped during and after Covid.
Because they wanted the NHS to pay the private sector instead.
We must never trust these people with our health again.
Yeah right.
It's a huge disappointment to me that our Govt really doesn't understand the way to tackle #ClimateChange
They talk, but it's confused and empty, with misplaced confidence in #Greenwashing schemes and a misunderstanding of terms like 'renewable'.
We are sunk.

The Sir Alec Ferguson Walkway, leading from the Govan-Partick Bridge to Govan Old's 1,500-year-old graveyard and the magnificent Viking-Age Govan Stones.
The interlace design by @SWG3glasgow is inspired by early medieval Govan School interlace!
This a must-read thread on why locational pricing is now critical in electricity.
Failure to introduce it puts bills up (a lot) and makes a mockery of cheap renewables.
The status quo is indefensible (unless you’re one of the incumbent generators profiting massively from it)
If the UK MSM did its job properly, the 86 Free zones Cons and Labour hatched up together would never have seen the light of day.
Do not believe commentators who say SEZs have nothing to do with Brexit, State aid for companies is paid with public money, and in the EU this public subsidy is meant for ecological transformation, knowledge gathering, and strengthening the public sector.
UK SEZs are all about deregulation and tax breaks for the asset classes and contravene EU laws and regulations on State aid, the whole point of Brexit.
