Right now, @Mark_Spencer is considering letting a pesticide that's lethal to bees back onto fields - despite the Gov's own scientists saying it should stay banned. Want him to make the right decision and protect bees? Add your name: https://t.co/Jjz9EhFbNu

Big 4 bank profits were up 700% in first half of this year compared to 2020, so I’ve just asked the Chancellor to introduce a windfall tax on banks’ excess profits, to fund support for households struggling with energy & housing costs
If you agree he should please RT! 🙏

People asking us about big #bumblebees they’re noticing on the wing at this time of year.
Here’s a quick 🙄 thread explaining.

A common confusion is that to decarbonise, the world will need to produce the equivalent of coal, oil & gas in the form of low-carbon energy.

That's not true.

Most fossil energy gets wasted. In the US, just one-third gets turned into useful services. The rest is wasted as heat.

Saving life on Earth has never been a priority for any Govt in world
The priority has always been saving Capitalism and economic growth at all costs
If saving Earth as a livable planet had been a priority
we would not now be facing collapse of Earth climate and natural world

Earth just had the hottest day, week, and month in 120,000 years.

This is terrible news. @CochraneUK is the world-leading, gold standard in evidence-based medicine. Why on earth would the government not ensure its funding continues??? Such a loss & false economy.

Andy Murray has been criticised by the Right Wing Media for saying this Wimbledon advertisement is bad.

It features 5 male tennis stars in the foreground and the women hidden in the back.

If you agree with Andy that this advert is horrible give this a RT

Shame on Wimbledon
