Andy Burnham left Greater Manchester £1.34 billion in the red – the highest debt of any combined authority in England, analysis shows. https://t.co/2RE01e8KeW

[Alex Hamilton @Enviro_Technol]

Dale Vince donated £5.7 million to the Labour Party.

Then his energy companies received £123 million in taxpayer subsidies.

Were journalists camping outside his home or hounding his family?

But when it’s Nigel Farage?

The double standards couldn’t be more obvious.

[Agent P @AgentP22]

Shocked.

Not shocked.

WHAT? … The UK Treasury REMOVED numeracy tests, so they could hire more ethnic minorities?

Wtf have I just read? Firstly it’s incredibly racist and secondly .. I think being able to fucking add up is fundamental for working in the fucking Treasury!

Seriously 🤡

I think this hashtag needs to be trending tonight, don’t you?

@Keir_Starmer Just shut up. You are a disgrace.

[No Farmers, No Food @NoFarmsNoFoods]

So when water companies threaten us with hosepipe bans, consider this…A single 100-megawatt AI data centre consumes about 2 million litres of water every day. The equivalent to the daily water footprint of 6,500 average households. Also, water companies in England and Wales lose an average of 2,967 million litres of water every single day through leaks, which is equivalent to roughly 1,187 Olympic-sized swimming pools per day.

[Ben Graham @BenGrahamUK]

Rachel Reeves & Keir Starmer were bragging a few days ago telling Brits how they'll save £5-10 off a zoo ticket or a theme park visit.

Today, families wake up to news that energy bills are set to rise another £221 a year.

This government is offering discount days out while people struggle to afford heating their homes.

How can anyone seriously trust them anymore?

[Kellie-Jay Keen @ThePosieParker]

He’s such a dishonest tiny weasel.

[GammonGazette @GammonGazette]

So, let me get this straight, after decades of global warming, we've matched a temperature that happened 82 years ago.....

[Dr. Matthew M. Wielicki @MatthewWielicki]

The UK just “smashed” its May temperature record… but here’s the part the Met Office conveniently leaves out:
The PREVIOUS record was set in 1922.

That’s 104 years ago.

Long before SUVs, private jets, or modern CO₂ emissions. Heathrow Airport didn’t even exist yet. The area was literally farmland and small villages.

So if a 1922 heatwave could produce nearly identical temperatures in a world with ~130 ppm less CO₂, maybe, just maybe, natural variability plays a much bigger role than the panic merchants admit.

Sky News forgot to mention that they are all Afghan illegal immigrants

A bit of honesty about what’s happening would help

Hiding the truth is how the mainly Pakistani-origin grooming gang scandal was covered up for so long

Can you rt this? Maybe we can make a difference

[David Icke @davidicke]

It's called perceptual manipulation to sell a lie.

[Kemi Badenoch @KemiBadenoch]

After 18 months of “standing up to Putin” the Labour govt quietly issued a licence allowing imports of Russian oil refined in third countries.

Yesterday Labour MPs voted AGAINST UK oil and gas licences.

We are now importing from Russia instead of drilling in the North Sea.

Insane.

[Claire Coutinho @ClaireCoutinho]

Last night Ed Miliband whipped his MPs to vote against our motion to save the North Sea and British refineries.

He argued Labour’s plans to kill British production was ‘climate leadership.’

Meanwhile he was waiving sanctions on Putin’s oil.
