Lover of walks in the rain and places in the sun, well-kept surprises and spontaneous fun, plus baking and tea and cupcakes; that's me.

I have just warned global leaders at #COP27:

We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator.

Our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate chaos irreversible.

We need urgent #ClimateAction.

Troops from New Zealand perform the Haka for the Prince & Princess of Wales.

[Jacinta Parsons @cintparsons]

Yes, this is NZ. It could have been any country, though, to act fast, simply, dilligently and sensibly.

It could have been the UK.

This superb video has now clocked past 3 million views.

It’s a brutal 3-minute summary of New Zealand’s success vs the UK’s failure. Keep sharing it.

Good lord... Jacinda, will you sort him out?

[Jed Mercurio @jed_mercurio]

On Sunday, Boris Johnson will announce that because the Govt locked down too late it will make up for it by unlocking too early.

@HMRCcustomers Thanks, Nav. I do - and it says 'Student Loan deductions in this employment' - but I had more than one jo and I'm being asked to provide a total for the year..?

[Jacinta Parsons @cintparsons]

@HMRCcustomers How exactly can one find out their year's total of Student Loan contributions please?! #TheStruggleIsReal

[Jacinta Parsons @cintparsons]

Amen.

[Chris Arnold @byChrisArnold]

After the wow of being with Heads of State etc last night, I realise I’m really not inspired by them... I’m inspired by young people who have the courage to change their circumstances and improve their community. Everyone knows more needs to be done to support youth - so do it.

The PM’s humiliation in Salzburg has been there for all to see for months.

May refused to listen, and this is the inevitable result.

The choice has *always* been:

- retain trade; have no say
- reject trade; crash economy
- reject Brexit: keep trade, forge a better future

[Jacinta Parsons @cintparsons]
