794 bodies recovered. Thousands still unaccounted for. Tell us, what was their crime?

I am writing this from the Himalayas from a country responsible for only around 0.1% of global greenhouse-gas emissions. Nearly 46% of our land is covered by forests. Around 94% of our installed electricity capacity comes from hydropower. We are rapidly moving away from fossil-fuel vehicles too: EVs accounted for about 74% of Nepal’s four-wheeled passenger vehicle imports in 2025/26. We protect forests. We generate electricity from our rivers. We are embracing electric mobility at a pace few countries in the world have matched. Yet today, our people are digging through mud, searching rivers and waiting beside phones for the names of their loved ones.

The Bhote Koshi flash flood has shown us what it means to live beneath a rapidly changing cryosphere. Our glaciers are retreating, our frozen mountains are becoming increasingly unstable, and the rivers that generate our clean electricity can also carry destruction into communities below. We did not build our prosperity by burning generations of coal and oil. We contributed almost nothing to creating the climate crisis at this scale. But we are being forced to survive its consequences. The people whose bodies are being pulled from rivers did not cause this crisis. The families still waiting for thousands of missing people did not cause it. The children, farmers, workers and mountain communities who lost everything did not cause it.

So from the Himalayas, we ask the industrialised world: how many Himalayan bodies will be enough? How many mothers must wait for children who never return? How many villages must disappear before “climate justice” becomes more than a speech at another conference? Do not come to us only with sympathy after the bodies have been counted. Come with responsibility. Come with climate finance, adaptation, loss-and-damage support and the courage to cut emissions at the scale this emergency demands. We want climate justice. We want the right to survive in our own mountains. We want a world where being born in the Himalayas is not a death sentence for a crisis we did not create.

What a powerful video this is from Brighton 👏❤️

Such an important message.

Wow who would have thought that electing a rapist would have complicated the release of the Epstein Files?

BREAKING: Thousands of Palestinians have taken to the streets of Gaza chanting: “Let the world know Gaza’s people are not Hamas! Down with Hamas!”

Why does the media and pro-Palestinian accounts refuse to report this?

On this day in 2010… 🗓️

Cardiff won 6-0 away at Bristol City in the Severnside derby! 😱💙

It includes this goal from Michael Chopra…

@BristolLive Honestly think it’s mental people can buy explosives and set them off without a licence, training or anything. Should just be public displays. Much safer and more manageable, better for pet owners and those with young children asleep. Still get great displays that way too.

Never forgotten.

Over 42,000 Palestinians murdered, 2/3 were children, women or elderly

Over 100,000 Palestinians injured

All 12 Universities destroyed

Health care destroyed

Over 70,000 tonnes of bombs dropped on Gaza 🇵🇸

2.3ml people being starved

And David Lammy MP says it’s not genocide.

I CANNOT WATCH THIS ANYMORE

I CANNOT KEEP BRACING MYSELF OVER MY TIMELINE

THIS IS NOT SELF-DEFENCE

[sarah @sahouraxo]

Today, Israel killed over 60 Palestinians in a single strike on a Gaza orphanage.

Read that again: 60 innocent civilians slaughtered in an instant.

But what does Western media want us to be concerned about? Iran striking Israeli military targets.

Absolutely twisted.

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

UK polls show that:

• 84% of the public think Netanyahu should be arrested if he comes to the UK

• 67% think Israel has committed war crimes

• 56% support blocking all arms sales to Israel

The British public are on the right side of history. Our political leaders are not.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Israel's decision to send troops into Lebanon, a sovereign nation, is not a "limited ground operation".

It is an invasion.

Our government's hypocrisy is on full display. Its failure to defend international law and stand up to Israel is a moral disgrace.

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

From North Carolina to Nepal, climate change isn’t just a tragedy, it’s a crime.

Exxon knew in the 70s that the burning of fossil fuels would destabilize the climate, but they lied about it to protect their $$$.

Time to pay for the damage they've caused.

#ActOnClimate

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

Repeat after me. A habitable planet is more important than the profits of a few fossil fuel companies.

Pass it on.

Sunak's Tory farewell speech:

"We reduced absolute poverty. We reduced child poverty. We reduced pensioner poverty".

Children in poverty in 2010: 3.6m
Children in poverty in 2024: 4.3m

Pensioners in poverty in 2010: 1.6m
Pensioners in poverty in 2024: 2.1m

A liar til the end.
