Most (wo)men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.

[Cian McCarthy @arealmofwonder]

Leo Tolstoy once said...

"A quiet secluded life in the country, with the possibility of being useful to people to whom it is easy to do good, and who are not accustomed to have it done to them; then work which one hopes may be of some use; then rest, nature, books, music, love for one's neighbour — such is my idea of happiness."

🎨 Isaac Levitan (1885)

"Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day."

This is a disgrace, a total waste of your council tax income @SheffCouncil, spraying poison in residential streets on weeds that are causing no major issue at all, apart from providing food and shelter for small creatures... disgusting! 😡

Ah the old lie "nationalisation will cost billions".

James Murry @jamesmurray_ldn you just told Justin Web @JustinOnWeb on the Today programme @BBCr4today that nationalising the water industry "costs huge amounts of money".

I challenge you sir, prove it, prove a single word of it and if you can't or won't then stop repeating the lie for that's what it is, a lie.

@Ed_Miliband

[Dale Vince @DaleVince]

If only Ed Miliband and Rachael Reeves had actually ‘broken the link’ - our energy bills would be lower now - I’ve shown them both how ’the link’ added £43 billion to our energy bills in 2023. We allow the price of gas to set the price of all other electricity in Britain, even made from the wind and sun - and when global gas prices go crazy, so does the price of our own green energy.

Two weeks ago Ed and Rachael announced they were breaking the link, days later when the detail came out we could see they had done no such thing. Offering voluntary contracts to legacy green generation is a joke. Their own forecasts are for a 10% take up by 2030 - a pointless gesture - other than the great headlines they got. But a betrayal of the country and arguably the government, many of whom believed the rhetoric. Not breaking the link allows right wing types to continue to blame green levies for what is a fossil fuel crisis, made worse by a defective market mechanism.

Keir Starmer should take control of this - and actually break the link.
