BREAKING: The government just approved the use of a BANNED bee-killing pesticide AGAIN!
One teaspoon of the pesticide is enough to kill 1.25 billion bees - it should be kept away from them!
Who else thinks the government should listen to the science and NOT the sugar lobby?
Yesterday I was arrested by @HertsPolice whilst covering a protest on the M25.
I showed my press card, and I was handcuffed almost immediately. My phone was snatched out of my hand. I was searched twice, held in a cell for 5 hours, and I wasn’t questioned whilst in custody.
Utterly bewildering Govt attack on solar farms. Solar is a win-win for energy & food security - it's *9 times cheaper* than climate-wrecking oil & gas (and much faster to deploy too), and fields with solar panels can still produce food. Who's behind these nonsensical Govt plans?
This is a crisis made in Downing Street.
We are all now paying the price for unfunded tax cuts which benefit the wealthiest people in Britain.
It couldn’t be any clearer - the Conservatives aren’t on your side.
Hey, friends, we just gave our company to planet Earth. OK, it’s more nuanced than that, but we’re closed today to celebrate this new plan to save our one and only home. We’ll be back online tomorrow.

I just took part in the #BigPlasticCount, UK’s biggest investigation into household plastic waste. Here’s what I found really happens to my plastic waste:
♻️9% recycled
🌍13% sent abroad
🔥51% burnt
⛰️27% sent to landfill
This is shocking, right?! @Jochurchill_MP@pow_rebecca
BREAKING NEWS:Leeds City Council has announced that it will SUPPORT Leeds Bradford Airport's climate-wrecking expansion proposals at the public inquiry. GALBA has tried to persuade LCC to take a neutral position and to save tax-payers' money for crucial public services…1/4
“New Zealanders decades ago threw out their Westminster style system & chose a proportionally elected parliament.That gave them Jacinda Ahern, who this week cancelled her wedding to comply with Covid restrictions.Boris Johnson couldn’t even postpone a few simple office knees-ups”
.@BorisJohnson even Shell have dropped Cambo - now it’s your move. After talking about your ‘climate leadership’ at COP26 it’s time to show some.
You must #StopCambo and all new fossil fuel projects if you are serious about tackling the climate crisis
Hi @BorisJohnson the gas price crisis has shown us how vulnerable we are to our reliance on fossil fuels. The solution to this and the climate crisis are the same - sustainable renewable energy. Stop Cambo and focus on renewable energy #BorisStopCambo
Good to hear PM’s new enthusiasm for climate action. Since Govt failing its own climate targets, I look forward to imminent cancellation of Cumbrian coal mine, Cambo oil field, £27bn road building plan, reversal of aid cut, & a #GreenNewDeal#WalkYourTalk https://t.co/RS7zql4Ne7
Deeply depressing to watch Government using underhand procedure seeking to amend Elections Bill to change all elections to First Past the Post including mayorals because they know they’re less likely to win when votes are fair - they couldn’t be more cynical

You mean like the good citizens pictured below Priti?
As @metpoliceuk will confirm, no officer or member of the public have ever been hurt by our protests #TellTheTruth
@TheSocBiz I’ve been commuting to work on an ebike for a couple of years now. It nearly got stolen a few months ago so now I’m a bit more wary where I lock it up. But other than that, I absolutely love riding it and feel much safer on it than my old pedal bike [email protected]
