Photographer Misan Harriman is chair of the Southbank centre. He is dedicated to justice and truth. Rightwing newspapers are smearing him. We can't let them.

Arrived in the mail with Reform UK pledges to spread hate, misinformation, unfunded promises and climate change denial. Apart from that it’s really encouraging

Enough with the generated outrage #r4today

The dreadful state of our prisons particularly HMP Wandsworth needs to be rationally addressed, and the BBC whipping up hysteria does not help

@Emmabarnett you are a better than cheap jibes about Lammy buying a suit before PMQs

@unitetheunion is crystal clear it will call out bad employers regardless of the colour of their rosette. @AngelaRayner has had every opportunity to intervene and resolve this dispute but has instead backed a rogue council that has peddled lies and smeared its workers fighting huge pay cuts.

The disgraceful actions of the @GOVUK and a so-called @UKLabour council, is essentially #FireAndRehire and makes a joke of the Employment Relations Act promises.

People up and down the country are asking whose side is the Labour government on and coming up with the answer not workers. #BirmighamBins

Pesticides alert‼️Not only killing nature🐝 but us.

Research shows if you live within a mile of a golf course, or if your water comes from an area with a golf course, you have double the odds of Parkinson’s.

[Joanna Bury, New Words for Rain @JoannaBury]

My novel, “New Words for Rain” is about the climate crisis and inequality: how the rich and the greedy corporations are destroying our only home, planet Earth.
Not sure how this all fits together? Watch this Oxfam film

Developing countries need large injections of cash (grants not interest bearing loans!) to help them cut greenhouse gas emissions and to cope with the impacts of extreme weather: compensation for the irreparable damage they are already suffering
🧵

[Extinction Rebellion Wimborne @XRWimborne]

Did you know the Global South has contributed only 4% of greenhouse gas emissions yet is suffering the most from climate change?

Drought, crop failure and famine. Cyclones and mudslides. Heatwaves and sea level rise.

Today we amplified the voices of the Global South by reading aloud the words of Climate Action Network Africa

The aim of COP29 is for rich countries to agree to pay climate finance to the Global South

We invite you to Read for the Planet. We will be amplifying the voices calling for climate justice for the Global South.

Join us on the bridge over the Allen by Wimborne Library for an outreach action - communicating direct with the public.

[Extinction Rebellion Wimborne @XRWimborne]

The purpose of COP29 is for the rich countries to agree to pay climate finance to the rest of the world. The Global South must be compensated with grants (not interest bearing loans!) for the irreparable damage they are already suffering, and to help them develop sustainably.

UN’s climate negotiations continue at COP29 in Azerbaijan, a petrochemical state implicated in ethnic cleansing. But there is so much at stake for the Global South, we can’t just dismiss COP29 as another failed conference 🧵 #Cop29 #ClimateFinance
