I just took part in The Big Plastic Count, as we’re still producing far too much plastic. @_RobbieMoore, will you lead the way at the negotiations for a Global Plastics Treaty and push for a cut in production of at least 75% by 2040?
Too much of our countryside is being doused with chemical pesticides. Bees, birds, butterflies and other wildlife are in decline. Join me and sign the @friends_earth petition to make the countryside a safer place for wildlife. #NatureFriendlyFarming https://t.co/wexk1jXdb9
Glad Braverman got what she wanted & Sunak finally summoned courage to sack her - breaching Ministerial Code, recklessly undermining police, deliberately stoking division, hatred & culture wars. But Sunak appointed her knowing all that. It’s on him. We need a #GeneralElectionNow
We are every community. We are every faith. We are every language.
We are united in our solidarity with people under occupation — and we will carry on demonstrating for a just and lasting peace.
I awoke in the night, panicking about Gaza.
For me (and I suspect millions of others) that was just a nightmare.
In Gaza is it an unimaginable reality.
No one can ignore what Hamas did on 7 October. It was unambiguously wrong.
But we cannot ignore what Israel is doing either. It is not proportionate. It is way beyond self defence. It too is unambiguously wrong.
That is why calls for a ceasefire are right. These wrongs must end, now. The lives of Palestinians, Jews and others impacted all matter. Right now, nothing matters more.
It is the legal duty of all politicians in every country that has signed the Geneva Convention of 1949 to uphold it. That must mean calling for an end to this war, now.
When will the UK’s political leaders call for a ceasefire? Leaving it another day will be too late.
People in Gaza are dying in the darkness.
This unthinkable horror cannot be undone — and history will not forgive those who refused to treat Israeli and Palestinian lives with equal worth.
Please, we need a ceasefire, now.
Two weeks ago, we marched in London for a ceasefire.
Last week, we marched for a ceasefire.
Today, we marched for a ceasefire.
This massacre has to end — we need a ceasefire, now.
🚨 BREAKING: Norwegian oil giant @Equinor just announced £6.6 billion in profits for the past 3 months.
Thanks to generous tax breaks, UK taxpayers will now effectively cover 91% of the costs for Equinor to develop the Rosebank oil field.
That's around a £3bn tax break for Equinor.
I repeat my call for a humanitarian ceasefire in the Middle East, the unconditional release of all hostages, and the delivery of life-saving supplies at the scale needed.
Everyone must assume their responsibilities.
This is a moment of truth.
History will judge us all.
Gaza is full of creativity, learning & joy. That is what is being destroyed.
We need an urgent ceasefire, the release of hostages and an end to the siege.
And then, maybe, we can try to bring some hope to the people of Gaza — teachers, artists, musicians — longing for peace.
