A lot of politicians would have you believe that handing over parts of the NHS to private providers is our only option
But…
* Only the NHS takes care of patients at A&E
* Only the NHS trains our doctors and nurses
* Only the NHS looks after all patients
The @savebutterflies Dorset Branch backs the draft Climate & Nature Bill. It has its second reading on 24 January 2025. Please email your MP and ask them to back the #CANBill today. We need at least 102 MPs to vote for the bill to progress. https://t.co/QZ1FepNkbx
@cbcreative@richardroper She taps her foot.
He ties his lace, picks something shiny from the mud. 'Do you..?'
She sees the ring, grins. Crocodile. 'Yes! I love you, I-' She stops. Something’s wrong. Besides the location; tiny diamond.
'..believe someone dropped this?’ He smirks. 'We should hand it in.'
Holding the line on 1.5C is not an aspirational target - it’s a scientific imperative. The #Rosebank oil field is not compatible with the 1.5C limit, international climate obligations, or indeed a liveable future.
This month, legal cases against Rosebank will be heard in the Scottish Courts - a big opportunity to accelerate the transition away from oil and gas.
Should the case be successful, the UK Government will have the opportunity to remake the decision. This is a government that was elected on a mandate to lead the transition to renewable energy - creating jobs, lowering bills, boosting the economy and ensuring a livable future. We must support them in that endeavour.

#NatureFriendlyFarming is key to a #wilderfuture.
I'm calling on @BritishSugar to help farmers go neonic-free.

Beet farmers who choose methods that boost nature must be supported. https://t.co/QXAjbYK6p5
NEW 🚨: The call to prosecute companies like @Shell@Equinor and @BP for their role in driving the climate crisis is getting stronger.
These companies have been fuelling climate breakdown for decades and are STILL hell-bent on drilling for more oil and gas. They must be stopped.
In my lifetime humans have destroyed 70% of the world's biodiversity - driving climate change, habitat loss, pollution & overfishing.
We haven’t ’lost it’ - we have killed it.
Our current trajectory is unsustainable. Our politicians must act now.

EXPOSED: Shell is developing an ILLEGAL gas field in UK waters. Their Jackdaw field will produce MORE CO2 than the annual emissions of Ghana.
How on earth is this right??
📣 @labourlewis: “I'm proud to be co-sponsoring the Climate and Nature Bill—and hope to see the government getting behind this comprehensive legislation. The #CANBill would put the UK on course to meet its international climate and nature targets.” https://t.co/pOpo5dPw5x
My letter in the Independent, calling on @Ed_Miliband and @UKLabour to not waste £22bn on a CCS con that just props up the fossil fuel industry.
This is Labour's first major misstep on climate - there is still time to reverse it.

Today, we responded to @guardian story that UK Government is considering allowing the use of a bee-killing pesticide for the 5th year in a row, despite election promise to end use and following an industry commitment to end reliance by 2023.

I think a lot of people in this country are really pissed off after a year with few butterflies & bumblebees
We've not just lost 'pollination services' - we've been robbed of beauty and joy!
Maybe @BritishSugar & @NFUtweets should read the room & withdraw their application?
"29 Devon beaches hit with more sewage alerts after heavy rain."
Did I mention that the @EnvAgency stopped testing water quality at the end of Sep and won't start again until the beginning of May next year?
For the next 7 months you're on your own.

Throughout history change in our society has happened as a direct result of peaceful non-violent protest .
It's time @UKLabour reinstated those rights .
