Being an MP should come with the condition that you have to spend a week each on the coalface in a school, hospital, shelter, hospice, food bank, job centre and refugee centre

@AkiyoshiKitaoka Neither, it looks like a top down view of a cooling tower, the outer red/blue interface being the rim

@IanRobbins0567 @TheNewsAgents he was elected under an undemocratic FPTP system. Lets get proportional representation done.

@ShakerMaker2 @TheNewsAgents ...and the demonisation of socialists. He said "if we don't like it we can leave"... so, we left.

@AnthonyW182 @TheNewsAgents Which PM do you think was unfairly made to resign?

[Diane Abbott @HackneyAbbott]

There is a lot of myth-making about Starmer's leadership, much of it unchallenged.
It is hard to support the claim Starmer 'saved the Labour party' when he got 560,000 votes fewer than Corbyn in 2019.
2024 was a Tory collapse, not a Labour surge.

[Sir Norman of Nowhere. 🏴‍☠️ @Normanjam67]

The most duplicitous politician of our era on almost every issue.
Here he is making two completely contradictory statements on climate change protestors.
Sir Keir Starmer has always spoken with a forked tongue, yet our media never held him to account.
He won't be missed.

@RichardJMurphy I'd like every single MP (and potential MP) to answer these a well.

"I know many good farmers are as pissed off with this constant attack on our #wildlife as I am, casting a shadow over their industry. It's telling how toxic some in the farming industry can be, every farmer who contacts me with information wants to remain anonymous"

@DavidHarboh2 @Shambles151 Because they weren't charged as terrorists. Imagine getting charged with robbery, and getting convicted as a murderer.

@volcaholic1 Here a but of homework for you, assume you have a job, 35 hrs/week, 48 weeks/ year, and you earn £1,000,000 per hour. How long until you earn 1 trillion?

@LeeAndersonMP_ @reformparty_uk Calling Reform grubby is unfair. Grubbiness can usually be cleaned off.

[Richard Bowler @RichardBowler1]

You couldn't make it up, the farmer who filmed himself cutting silage in prime nesting season, yesterday put out a video blaming badgers for the decline in ground nesting birds. No joined up thinking. More on my FB page

[Richard Bowler @RichardBowler1]

Wouldn't it be hypocritical if one of the biggest gobs blaming badgers for the decline in ground nesting birds spent this week cutting hay and silage. The fledgling skylark I photographed June 18th last year would have been mince. 1000s of fields being cut, but lets blame Badgers

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

This article says climate change is “believed to have played a role” in the UK's extreme heat this week.

As a climate scientist, let me fact-check that.

First, climate change is not a religion. No belief is required. It is about evidence.

And the evidence has been crystal clear for more than two decades: climate change is making heat waves hotter, longer, more frequent and more dangerous.

In fact, science has advanced far beyond saying climate change merely “played a role.” Today, we can quantify how much more likely and how much hotter climate change made a specific event.

Here's the bottom line:

Climate is changing. Humans are responsible. And we are experiencing the impacts now. That’s the bad news.

The good news is that solutions already exist, and the majority of people care - 89%, around the world!

But meaningful action depends on helping people understand not just what is happening: we need to know how it affects our lives (this heat wave being example A today) and what we can do about it.

That’s the opportunity this reporting missed.

@AndyBurnhamGM the one question I want you to answer, Andy: Was @jeremycorbyn treated badly by Labour? Would you welcome him back?

[Rosie P 🦇 🦎 🕷️ 🦭 🐌 🍃🌳🚲💧 @RosieP4]

Watch as @nationalgriduk chomps through a hedge. In nesting season. Despite its DCO stating “”In accordance with good practice measure B02, vegetation with the potential to support breeding birds will be programmed to be removed outside of breeding bird season (March to August inclusive) where practicable”. So why was it not practicable not to do it in this instance?The ecologist found nothing (what a surprise) but there is no way a hedge like this does not have nesting birds.

The woman in this video is Caitriona Graham an Irish citizen.

This is how our citizens are being treated by Israel , having been abducted in international waters, trafficked to a third state and now experiencing humiliation, stress positions, aggression and violence.
