Yesterday's devastating #glacier collapse erasing the Swiss village of Blatten still leaves me speechless...
The high mountain areas are adapting to ever increasing temperatures. It's time to wake up! When, if not now?
This is not far away but right here...

No, not 💯 Elon. In the U.K. they’re not going round ‘finding people who’ve said something they disagree with and putting them in a f—king cage.’ Some people are being charged for inciting racial hatred and for organising acts of violence. It’s very specific, and it’s the law in most democracies including the US. For example, one person has pleaded guilty today to inciting an attack on a hotel housing asylum seekers: an attack which then took place. Another hotel was set on fire, with people still inside. Freedom carries responsibility: and freedom of speech carries with it the responsibility of each of us to use our words wisely and to be aware of the damage misinformation can cause. To be clear, criminal violence directed towards various communities in the U.K. was perpetrated as a result of malicious and specifically targeted misinformation online. And it’s a relief no-one was killed. Words matter. And yet here you are, running a huge information network, and all you can do is post 💯 over something you choose not to verify for accuracy, not alert people to it’s highly damaging nature. In fact, because of who you are, your 💯 gives it a stamp of approval in the eyes of those who seek validation for their actions. What we say and do has real consequences. That’s because we’re not in a matrix, we’re in real life, and sticking 💯 on a lie doesn’t turn it into truth.

With a new Govt a week today, thought it time to look at what Labour will need to prioritise to put its clean power mission into action. Think there are 9 big calls that will have to be made, not just in the first 100 days, but well beyond...1/10 🧵https://t.co/ninVHRiIPX

With the creation of a publicly-owned energy company in the news and central to Labour's pitch to voters, have scribbled some thoughts on what GB Energy could look like in practice. No firm conclusions, but three 'models' for how it could take shape...

I hate to be pedantic (and no doubt this will mean I'll be labelled as one of those doomsters @KemiBadenoch is calling out here) but there's a few problems with the data the biz/trade sec is quoting here.
When you correct them, the picture looks a little different...

And just like that…you’re six months old.
What a hilarious, sweet, loud, cuddly, messy and loving boy you are.
We love you more than life itself.
Can’t wait to keep watching you grow.

Love you, Noah Bean!

Having looked at a range of public opinion data - both quant/qual I’ve found nothing to convince me there is electoral benefit to Labour junking the green investment plan - the big risk instead is ditching it reinforces Starmer’s (very real) weakness he doesn’t stand for anything
