As I said yesterday, Britain has entered a new climate reality.
Govt must deliver a national Heat Resilience Strategy, led from the Cabinet Office with clear ministerial accountability, ensuring that decisions on housing, infrastructure, health, energy and land use are all designed for the climate we now face.
Andy Burnham says Labour got Gaza wrong. If you're sorry, prove it.
1. Call it a genocide.
2. End the arms sales.
3. Stop sharing military intelligence with Israel.
The people of Gaza can't wait any longer.
Welsh artist Diana Williams has created a powerful memorial to Gaza's youngest victims by embroidering the names of 300 babies killed in Israel's war on Gaza onto a vintage christening gown.
The artwork, titled Know Their Names, took four months to complete and features frayed edges and hanging red threads symbolizing the devastation, innocence lost, and the bloodshed endured by Palestinian children.
Williams said she felt compelled to act after witnessing the suffering of families in Gaza, particularly its children. The gown has already received public recognition in Wales, with prize money donated to Medical Aid for Palestinians, and is scheduled to be exhibited in Paris and displayed on a billboard in New York later this year to raise international awareness of Gaza's child victims.
This is our world approaching 1.5C above preindustrial temperatures.
We’re on track for 3C, even 4C, across the coming decades.
“In our lifetimes, maybe even relatively soon, we will start seeing heatwaves with death tolls in their millions”
NASA Scientist, Peter Kalmus
"From bus and train drivers sweltering in their cabins to bakers working in over 40 degrees, and builders whose workplaces offer no respite from the heat – the government has a duty to protect all of us."
Today Hannah Spencer is tabling a maximum workplace temperature bill.
As postal votes land on doorsteps, Greater Manchester's residents deserve to know exactly what they're voting for on July 30th.
While Labour produce empty cartoon pledges, our fully costed Green manifesto sets out a bold plan for a fairer Greater Manchester:
🏠 20,000 genuinely affordable homes over the next decade
🏬 Bringing empty high street spaces back into community use
🚌 Free bus travel for everyone under 22 across Greater Manchester
Greater Manchester deserves better than more broken Labour promises. Vote Green on July 30th. 💚
This must stop. Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, ethnic cleansing in the West Bank and maintaining its unlawful occupation and apartheid against Palestinians while also committing war crimes in Lebanon. Meanwhile its trade with the EU is booming.
Today is the last chance before EU politicians break for summer to suspend the EU Israel Association Agreement. Over 1 million people have demanded it. NGOs, unions, UN experts and hundreds of diplomats and ambassadors agree. Two states hold the key. Tell Germany and Italy to act.

This is todays catastrophic flooding in Hubei, China, and climate change deniers are still opening their mouths.
The evidence is in front of us, yet some still choose to ignore it. It makes me sick.
Every climate denier, every oil-bought politician, every “it’s just natural cycles” clown who spent years obstructing action has blood on their hands.
These floods, the wildfires, the heatwaves, the droughts, that starve people to death - this is what deliberate obstruction looks like.
Your denial didn’t just slow things down. It made the body count higher. You’re not a sceptic. You’re an accomplice. You contributed to this. Own it or shut the fuck up.
Climate deniers aren’t just wrong. They’re selfish cowards.
They’re sentencing their own grandkids to hell on Earth so they can keep licking Big Oil’s boots.
Selfish, ignorant, or corrupt. Pick your poison. The planet doesn’t care which one you are.
EXPLOSIVE! An arrest warrant should be promptly issued against this self-confessed war criminal.
The more Israeli leaders get away with their crimes, the more the system meant to protect us all gets irreparably destroyed.
Entire Palestinian family suffocated after zionist settler had beaten them and attacked them with poisonous gases south of the occupied West Bank city of Al Khaleel
There has been a 'ceasefire' in Gaza for 274 days.
In that time 1,098 Palestinians have been murdered and 3,500 injured.
While 0 Israelis have been killed.
There is no ceasefire, just a Genocide.
A compilation of how senior Labour figures refused to support the upholding of international law as Israel killed 10,000 Palestinians during the first month of bombing👇
It’s wild to think we probably could’ve tackled climate change decades ago without sacrificing economic growth. The only real difference is that a handful of oil executives wouldn’t have become quite as insanely rich.
