This was just 3 weeks ago.

Throwing the London Mayor under a bus because of a policy Starmer backed - which 47% of Londoners support, with 32% opposed - looks weak and slimy.

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

There's no such thing as honest climate science denial. Faced with the mountain of devastating evidence and the acute emergency being experienced right now in several parts of the world, either you're being paid for it or you're channelling the claims of someone who has.

Why didn’t you vote on the privileges committee report, @JSHeappey?

One of the most important in modern history and yet your constituents are afforded no representation.

Isn’t that what you get paid (£80k+ per year) to provide?

Shell made £160,000,000,000 profit last year, they haven’t paid a penny of tax in the U.K. for 5 years.

They are the Conservatives biggest donor.

Join the dots.

Jeremy Hunt uses coffee cups to explain the economy!

Cracking journalism by Sky News.

It feels invigorating after all these years to finally have a big news outlet expose this awfulness.

They can’t get sued in the way the little guy does when we point it out.

BREAKING🚨| The government has announced anti-strike legislation.

When workers democratically vote to strike, they can be forced to work and sacked if they don’t. This is wrong, unworkable, and almost certainly illegal.

“The Daily Mail supported Adolf Hitler.”

8:23am Friday morning.

From the Bristol Channel to the Thames Estuary, sewage dumping on an organised, industrial scale all of it caused by just 2 companies, @SouthWestWater & @SouthernWater.

And the @DefraGovUK, @Ofwat & @EnvAgency does what exactly?

[Dale Vince @DaleVince]

Massive intervention on energy bills is the right thing to do, but it should be paid from from the runaway profits of the oil and gas sector - those profits come from our energy bills. Without a windfall tax we're left paying for this for decades to come.

"At least it wasn't Corbyn" they mutter to themselves as Phillip Schofield, estimated to be on £600,000+ a year, spins the wheel to decide whether or not they'll freeze to death this Winter

[Matthew Todd 🌏🔥 @MrMatthewTodd]

Strange times. Models showing 40C UK temperature for the first time ever. Most MPs uninterested in a climate change briefing from the UK Chief Scientist. On This Morning, Alison Hammond is on an indoor ski slope in Dubai. Our kids futures are disappearing. Strange times.

So Brexit is costing the UK £100 billion a year in lost output according to government's own figures.

That's 11 years worth of EU membership each single year but with none of the benefits.

Jaw dropping figure.

[Mark Johnson @Mark_AJohnson]

An army of Police have descended on Parliament square to clamp down on anti-Brexit campaigner Steve Bray’s protest. Today marks the first day officers can use powers under the new Policing Act to restrict protests deemed to be too noisy.

[Zarah Sultana MP @zarahsultana]

Rishi Sunak has just been named as one of the richest people in the country, with a £730,000,000 fortune.

This is the man who is refusing to do more to help struggling families, saying this week "the next few months will be tough".

This super-rich Chancellor is taking the piss.

[Adam Jogee MP @AJogee]

Chaotic scenes in Parliament 😂

[Nooruddean @BeardedGenius]

Tomorrow's Daily Mail asks 'Don't they know there's a war on?' as if reporting on the Prime Minister breaking the law is frivolous. By that logic, why the fuck were they reporting on airport queues and Meghan Markle a day earlier? Wasn't there a war on?
