Ringhals 4 torrkokades eftersom man åsidosatte körschemat. Det livsfarliga misstaget, med skador för 100 miljoner kr, upptäcktes först efter 20 minuter. Hur ska vi kunna lita på att rutinerna följs i en krissituation med strålningsrisk? https://t.co/8IFUHHXTin

I delivered this poem at the 11th hour of the conference of parties. Loss and damage means unbelievable loss. We can not come back from the loss of culture. There will come a time when no amount of dollars will be able to bring back what we’ve lost and broken.

Whatever one may think of the previous and current UK governments, one has to be impressed by the diversity of representation two consecutive anti-feminist and racist governments can manage. Truly a great leap forwards for humankind.

Det här är Pavlo. Efter att ha fått problem med irriterad hud och rethosta har han tjatat sig till en andningsmask. Masken har inget filter som passar och det läcker in ofiltrerad luft. Men kanske känns det ändå lite bättre.

This looks like a shitpost but anyone who’s seen the video knows it’s verbatim real

@maxajl Didn't Finns mainly emigrate during Swedish colonial rule? I don't take issue with the general point, but the details are interesting; I think ongoing imperialism in both Norway and Finland is excused by ppl in those countries through anti-Swedish/anti-Danish underdog mentality.

Though it may feel like a relief that Lizz Truss and Boris Johnson are gone, don't be fooled. It's not in the end about the individuals but about what they are part of - a Tory party catering to the interests of a tiny rich minority. Rishi Sunak is no different. #UKPolitics

Britain has elected the richest Prime Minister ever and guess what he is going to make the rest of us poorer? #EnoughIsEnough

Labour conference news: Labour for a Green New Deal motion ruled out of order by CAC yesterday on basis it covers more than one topic. Campaigners accuse leadership of “bending the rules to shut down debate”. Reminder: same thing happened last year, it was ruled back in on appeal

The British post-war fascist leader Colin Jordan got 9 months in prison for setting up a paramilitary force in the 1960s. 9 months. After serving his sentence, he continued his work as a fascist leader and ideologue. Liberal democracy sure sucks at protecting itself.

During a jog in a forested part of my neighbourhood graveyard I looked around for a really noisy cooling aggregate I was hearing and wondered why anyone would put up such a thing in a graveyard. Ten seconds later I almost ran into a swarm of bees.

@ehelkernygren @vansterpartiet @miljopartiet Mina tankar går i liknande banor. I riksdagsvalet blir det nog Mp i stället för V, alternativt Fi. Lokalt i Göteborg Fi. VG-regionen är jag mer osäker på. Viktigaste konkreta orsaken är att Mp är emot gruvan i Gállok och därmed kanske kanske kan närma sig miljörättvisetänkande.

@MagnusCarlbring @ehelkernygren @magnus_vinqvist @aspelundarn @PatrikErdes @sigfusok @KnibestolTone @aljadinge @RebeccaSaraJ @ArvidBroddefalk @gorelsan Håller med om detta, med tillägget att det måste vara under rödgrön miljörättviseflagg. Går också på samma vis att argumentera för att gå samman inom V men undrar om uppförsbacken är ännu längre där med tanke på nya utvecklingen med aggressiv nationalistisk industripepp.

76 migrants were presumed dead after their boat, which departed from Libya, sank off the coast of Tunisia, the UN migration agency said on Wednesday. “Unfortunately they are a lot,” said a spokesman. “But also unfortunately, this isn’t anything new.” https://t.co/4lxZdrQ1T8

Men det allra viktigaste är stora ekonomiska omfördelningar och kraftiga restriktioner mot miljö- och klimatförstörare. Det är där alla pandemier har sin motor.

Covid-19 är fortfarande ett större problem än apkoppor. Men hur kapitalet hanterar natur och klimat är det största.

[Momentum 🌹 @PeoplesMomentum]

To fight for climate justice, we first need to understand what it is.

In Momentum’s first session of our Climate Justice course we will be exploring the different dimensions of the crisis, from the global to the local level.

Join us next Thursday 26 May at 7pm.
