Right to protest: Under threat ❌
Right to strike: Under threat ❌

Generation after generation fought tooth and nail for these rights - are we seriously going to allow this government to just take them away?

Today I'm wishing I could spend my 20s doing so many things other than constantly fighting against oppression and climate breakdown. I feel exhausted. My heart feels heavy. But I have to hold hope that one day young people won't have to fight thanks to the work we are doing now

The university is running scared!

Earlier today the university has threatened legal action. So let's be clear, @SEBuitendijk if you want our actions to stop them enter negotiations and come speak to us.

This also goes out to individuals who would like to meet up with people attending! (We are not attending as a group but may have some members travelling across.)

[Youth4Climate Leeds @YLeedsuk]

If you want to take part in the regional assembly this is in Sheffield (12pm, Barkers Pool). If anyone has any accessibility needs or wants some support getting to Sheffield pop us a quick message and we can see what we can do to help. :)

Deadline for our Trustee application has been extended! Weare especially keen to hear from people who have lived experience of racism and other structural harms such as abelism, sexism, homophobja and ways if being 'othered' by systems of oppression.

“Young people see the connection between struggles - they see that climate justice relies on racial, disability justice…

“This isn’t about carbon, it’s about justice.”

Shannon Jackson from @YLeedsuk speaking on the youth panel at today’s @official_ryca #GreenYouthDeal launch

[Dominique Palmer 🌷 @domipalmer]

Love the point about the privilege that comes with only being inconvenienced by a climate protest , when people right now are facing climate catastrophes. People are being displaced by floods, and that will increase with the climate crisis - THAT is the biggest ‘inconvenience’

[The Racial Justice Network @RaceJustice]

Last day to apply to become a member of our Trustee Board.

Africa is now feeling the threatening impact of climate change so much now, with no adaptation structure, as major contributors to global emissions are silent. @ExtinctionR @media_xr @XRebellionUK @COP27P @Cop26P @USinNigeria @UKinNigeria @FMEnvng

So, Shell has bought COP27 *and* British Cycling. What a spin cycle!
