He’s back . And he’s doing exactly what he said he would . Executive orders to expand drilling in the Alaskan wilderness , the guise of a ‘National Energy Emergency’ to slash red tape and regulation for fossil fuel companies , and the withdrawal from the Paris Climate Agreement . Yes it’s a set back . A major one . But we cannot give up . Not now , not ever .

In the UK I’m campaigning for a ban on fossil fuel advertising and sponsorship , because for too long these companies have had largely unlimited £££ to greenwash their filthy reputations . No more .

Through struggle and discipline, persistence and faith, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. helped move this country forward. As we honor his legacy today, let’s remember the lesson he taught us: that even in the face of impossible odds, people who love this country can help change it. In honor of #MLKDay, I hope you’ll do what you can in your community to create a better future for us all.

@IsabelOakeshott You call yourself a journalist? A basic fact check? Nah, who needs that when you can jump on the far right bandwagon of baseless conspiracy!

Helping to promote disinfo, racial division and unrest is more fun and profitable, isn’t it?

Any remaining shred of credibility, gone.

Let me get this straight. Reeves says 'economic ties are important' - with China, not the EU? And the UK 'lags behind the EU in trade with China' - so why aren't we part of the EU, benefitting from the trade with China?
Is Labour's embrace of Brexit hypocrisy or insanity?

Hollywood is on fire , yet still deniers clutch at straws to blame this on anything other than the real problem – climate breakdown . I’m petitioning for a ban on fossil fuel ads to take the fight to the companies who continue to exploit our fragile planet https://t.co/Yxjx9DoYMu

This execrable man tells us we've got poorer - we have - but doesn't blame the real reason - Brexit - & instead blames immigration.
Shameless.
Right wing stooge interviewer of course doesn't challenge.
Pathetic, irresponsible, damaging.

This is Ann Telnaes, a longtime political cartoonist for the Washington Post. She resigned yesterday after owner Jeff Bezos blocked her cartoon criticizing Donald Trump and billionaires supporting him from being published.

RETWEET if you stand with @AnnTelnaes!

What chutzpah! Farage has the gall to complain “We are getting poorer” without a scintilla of shame that Brexit has played a key role in our impoverishment @bbclaurak

[Jesus is King @ProseccoLiquido]

Michael J. Fox once said about Trump: “When you see your particular group mocked, it’s such a gut punch. It’s so senseless and cheap. There’s no way I get up in the morning and mock orange people”

[Samantha Smith @SamanthaTaghoy]

I remember being asked by a detective whether I had “consented” to sexual activity at any point.

I was five years old when my abuse started.

Not a “young woman”.
Not a “child prostitute”.
Not “promiscuous”.

I was a child.
So no, I didn’t consent. No child can.

[Liam Thorp @LiamThorpECHO]

A man keels over in a chaotic emergency room, an 88-year-old woman waits for 24 hours in the back of an ambulance, a depressed and frustrated paramedic can’t face his job anymore

This is the reality of the state of the NHS right now 👇

Pardon my French, but when they ask, tell your kids this is a f&cking role model.

[nazir afzal @nazirafzal]

Or they may want to remember that widely held and truly appalling attitude, demonstrated by this man, that govt shouldn’t be bothering with historic child sexual abuse

[Manveen Rana @ManveenRana]

There was an independent inquiry, led by Prof Alexis Jay, whose earlier report on Rotherham shook the country.

The inquiry concluded in 2022, when Kemi Badenoch was Women’s Minister, but the government ignored all of its recommendations.

Why wasn’t Elon tweeting in rage then?

Happy new year! I’m a pediatrician and this is a fabricated lie

[Supertanskiii @supertanskiii]

I can’t be the only person absolutely enraged by Musk’s incitement of further unrest in Britain by spreading disinformation. Meanwhile, the so called “patriotic” far right bend over and welcome foreign interference.

I see it as an attack on our country, because it blatantly is.

[Claire 💙 @clairebubblepop]

Jenrick can FUCK OFF. Now he wants to do something about the grooming gangs? You know you had 14 YEARS & you did fuck all for these women. So now you’re not in power you’re weaponising their trauma for your own political gain, with your faux fucking care… I hate people like you.

[nazir afzal @nazirafzal]

@KemiBadenoch We had one - it lasted 7 years and cost millions
Did you read it?
