We are fundraising for our friend and colleague Prof @JosephDaher19 , fired by the Uni Lausanne for his Palestinian activism. He is deprived of his income, and challenging the decision through the courts is costing 10s of thousands. Please help!

I have some bad news about “who’s altering our atmosphere without our consent”, and it’s not water vapor condensation in airplane contrails…

Calling this now: Trump is going to withhold federal funds from blue states after climate disasters.

He is going to use the government to punish Americans who didn't vote for him.

"Hamdan was clearly targeted for making No Other Land (he recalled soldiers joking about the Oscar as they tortured him), he was also targeted for being Palestinian ... This ... gave the Academy an excuse to remain silent when a filmmaker they honored ... needed them the most."

What this is obscuring is that the really rich get income not only from their work, but also from assets, property, shares, & they DONT pay progressive tax on that - they pay much less.

The average worker pays proportionately more tax than the super rich cos of this #TaxTheRich

This ancient hedgerow on the front field of Yew Tree Farm has gone from a lush dormice habitat to a dirty fly tipping hot spot. We said this would happen but the council called us fear mongerers. How much destruction needs to happen for you to start listening?

The plastic industry is an offshoot of fossil fuel.
Imagine breathing micro-plastic.
Sounds good?

This young man had more dignity and integrity in his short career than the thousands of comfortable Western journalists who have remained silent as their governments have armed and funded a genocide.

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

No Other Land depicts the horrifying violence Palestinians in the West Bank endure under apartheid.

Yesterday, its co-director Hamdan Ballal was beaten in his home by settlers before being detained by Israeli forces.

People applauded Hamdan. Now they are silent. Free Hamdan.

Spot on.

@garyseconomics explaining that taxing the rich isn’t going to be easy but you do it because the alternative is our kids living in poverty.

Look around. My govt needs to understand the window to act is closing. Oligarchs & big money are smashing democracy

Act now

The government's pesticide reduction plan is out. Reduction target of 10% by 2030. BUT
- Only focuses on arable farming, not use of pesticide in urban areas
- EU target is 50% by 2030 so is another divergence from enviro standards

We were told that cutting international aid was the right thing to do, rather than cutting welfare at home. So why are labour also cutting welfare?

[Mehdi Hasan @mehdirhasan]

If Hamas had killed 7 Israelis inside of Israel this week, it would be one of the biggest stories in the world, & all over the US media.

But Israel killed 7 HUNDRED Palestinians this week, including almost 200 children, & yet there's little outrage from our politicians or media.

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

We should talk more about how the dominant approach of capitalist economists to controlling inflation is to periodically throw hundreds of thousands of people out of work and into misery. This is what passes for "economic stability" and it is madness.

[Kent Wildlife Trust @KentWildlife]

We’ve been wrongly named as a stakeholder in the 8,400-home Highsted Park development—one we strongly oppose.

The developer falsely claimed we’re “working with them.” This is completely untrue.
