This week sees protests UK-wide against branches of Barclays, and at Wimbledon. Wimbledon claims to be committed to the environment but chooses Barclays, the bank with the worse environmental record in Europe, as their new partners. Ask them to stop: https://t.co/fmkGMZBw7d

#CutTheTiesToFossilFuels
In Cambridge, rebels held a vigil outside Senate House, calling on @Cambridge_Uni to cut all ties to Schlumberger now.
It's time our University stopped cosying up with fossil fuel planet-killers.

Schlumberger have blood on their hands. The brave rebels who took a stand against fossil fuel capitalism today will probably get arrested, but Schlumberger will get away with murder.

Business as usual is incompatible with a habitable planet, as UN General Secretary emphasised last week.
You are the top funder of fossil fuels in Europe. Morally Bankrupt.

"The reason there is so much climate protest right now is not because our laws are too soft, but because the injustice that faces us is too great"

🧵
Huuuge mobilisation against @Barclays financing fossil fuel expansion 💜
Targeted action against a clear climate villain ✅
Negligible public disruption ✅
ZERO coverage from mainstream media who crucified @JustStop_Oil for untargeted disruptive actions.
Our media is broken.
