The psychogy of denial runs deep. People don't want to change. They just carry on, more monitoring, more statistics. Shout at those urging change. Only action is to cope with the darkness and not change the light bulb. So called democracy, not helping with scale of change needed.

[Matthew Todd 🌏🔥 @MrMatthewTodd]

It’s weird how so many people just cannot see the danger.

They take us for idiots. But we are not. We know, Sturgeon! Great post.

[Robbie🐾🐾 @RobMclovin1]

Nicola Sturgeon leaving her house whilst her husband is in Edinburgh High Court for embezzling £460000 today. She apparently knew nothing!

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

It is completely alarming and no one is talking about it or doing anything about it. #climatecrisis

[Dr Shama Junejo @ShamaJunejo]

Today is going to be the hottest day of May in London. Whole Europe is going through a terrible heatwave. #ClimateCrisis
#UKHeatWave

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

But that is because he lives near the equator, imbecile. This climate at 51 degrees north is alarming. #globalwarming

[Sus Anoo | your not-so-average Yo-kai Watch fan @samuraisusanoo]

Congratulations you guys now know what I (Indonesian person) feel on a daily basis

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

#globalwarming is making life unbearable and unlivable very, very quickly. Yet we do nothing. Keep calm and carry on. Total denial. No conversation about us all needing to change.

[Jeff Berardelli @WeatherProf]

The infamous Summer of 1976 beaten by a May heatwave? It's the new reality of our climate changed world!
"That (36C) would be higher than any temperature recorded during the summer of 1976"

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

No one is talking #globalwarming or doing anything about it. Temperatures in August? OMG #Dontlookup is in action. Wildfires rising here. Why are we in denial, keeping calm and carrying on? This is why we are spending billions of our tax for ultra rich to colonise the moon, btw.

[Met Office @metoffice]

We have provisionally broken the UK record for highest daily minimum temperature in May... again 😮

Temperatures didn't fall below 21.3°C overnight at Kenley Airfield, making it a 'tropical night' (no lower than 20°C).

Remarkably, the record was also broken yesterday.

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

#houseofgames Poor celeb standard this week. Regularly shouting at the television. Clue: Trampled Maize. Initials are the same as a Prime Minister. A: Boris Johnson...ffs 🙄 So many examples like this, this week.

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

Once more the refs nudge the game in favour of the rich clubs. My subbuteo plastic refs are fairer.

[Andrew @ESCLFC]

That’s horrendous. Another apology incoming from the @PGMOL_FA. Absolutely useless. #PGMOL #ARSBUR

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

Two clear sending offs for Arsenal in this game but once more refs nudge games in favour of the rich teams. My subbuteo refs are fairer.

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

That’s a red. Studs up by Havertz. Serious foul play. Yellow given, and confirmed by VAR. Lucky boy. #AFC #ARSBUR

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

I visited #Deal last week. Nearly every 5th shop is a barber. And in #Bexhill. Come on this surely needs looking into #HMRC #obvious

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

HMRC harasses lawful businesses, yet lets the vape shops and Turkish barbers get away with blatant money laundering.

As I made clear to HMRC senior civil servants this afternoon...

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

The gender opposite of BBC productions in the 2020s then...

[World of Statistics @stats_feed]

In "The Shawshank Redemption" - there are only two female speaking roles, totaling about 10 seconds in a 2 hours and 22 minutes film

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

Raynes, Streeting, Starmer. Goodness. The three Stooges. And what luck that Rayner has been cleared at this point! 🤔 Sorry, but we still think it stinks, Ange.

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

"Should there be a leadership contest?"

Akehurst: "No.. if Wes started this it could end us up with a PM thats a long way to the left of him or Keir or me"

Because if last week told us anything its that the country is crying out for more of the politics of you three, right?

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

Yet another fix...

[The Away Fans @theawayfans]

Celtic were given a last gasp penalty at Motherwell for this…

Correct decision? 🤨🤨

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

#Eurovisión2026 So funny to hear @TheGNShow Graham Norton saying this has 'something for everyone' Absolutely not! #Eurovisión is the most narrow music genre going! It becomes thinner year upon year. It tries So hard to be unconventional but is in a predictable straitjacket.

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

Actually the first foul was by Declan Rice. Should have been a penalty. You are #wrong. I am not a West Ham fan btw. I thought this very obvious.

[Henry Winter @henrywinter]

How to end the wrestle-mania scarring the Premier League? In all the fall-out to the (correct) VAR decision over the foul on Raya, some thought must now be given to stopping the free-for-all grappling at corners. Premier League and PGMO need to act on this embarrassment to the football it oversees. But how? More refereeing consistency would be a start.

Operating a no-hands rule - as suggested by some - would be impossible. Contact will always happen in a crowded area. Darren Cann’s suggestion of no attackers in the six-yard box until the ball is played makes sense, as Cann’s suggestions invariably do. A working party of Cann, a former player and manager could easily advise PGMO on getting to grips with the grapplers.

#houseofgames Ewen Thomas competes at Seoul. Knows the answer is Seoul and puts his x in the middle of China. The level of ignorance is astounding! Omg 🙄

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

What a fix.

[The 44 ⚽️ @The_Forty_Four]

VAR stole a generation moment once again…

Ruining the beautiful game

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

It is incredible that the cruise company had little risk assessment of a serious virus outbreak on board nor any protocol to enact should it happen. Nothing agreed with local authorities and Government's to swing into action to contain the outbreak and care for people.

[BBC Breaking News @BBCBreaking]

Spain starts evacuating passengers from virus-hit cruise ship in Tenerife https://t.co/Ob5HE11x47

[Martin Searle @MartinSearle15]

This is what 'woke' is about. Virtue signalling and missing the point on the key issues that Governments should address. Supporting more boys and men to be healthy, positive and productive in our society would give a massive bang for UK bucks in terms of economic regeneration.

[Harvey Proctor @KHarveyProctor]

This appointment has disregarded men & boys of this country.

• 84 men a week take their own lives
• 75% of all suicides are male
• 25% of men live with mental illness
• One man dies of prostate cancer every hour

For 28 years, we have had a Minister for Women, but who speaks for men?

Such advocate would complement - not compete with - efforts for women’s rights, ensuring best outcomes for all.

Action to address male-specific issues is long overdue.
