This is Brexit

Important rallying call from George Monbiot today https://t.co/ONaMQt9C3p

That Lewis is a racing driver is NOT hypocrisy. It's no use for an individual like Lewis to opt out and give up his career. He needs to encourage the industry to change. We are all hypocrites in this.

[Olly Willans @ollywillans]

Really happy to see @LewisHamilton and @GaryLineker supporting the @JustStop_Oil protesters' actions at Silverstone. Clearly, only extreme actions draw any attention to the issue, which is why people are driven to this. No real danger, red flags would have come immediately.

To @robertcourts as a constituent I ask you to please vote against @BorisJohnson today. There are far better leaders and people in the conservative party. It's time for this humiliation of Britain to end.

Well said @GaryLineker, that interview makes uncomfortable viewing for all the wrong reasons.

[Gary Lineker @GaryLineker]

Seeing the interview in its entirety is sickening, but at the same time the bullying & patronising nature of it is getting plenty of coverage for what is the most crucial time for our future existence on this planet. Only one person came out of this well & that’s Miranda Whelehan

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

A simultaneous 30°C anomaly in the Arctic and 40°C anomaly in the Antarctic, among the most terrifying events scientists have recorded, was a footnote in the bulletins.
One celeb slapping another: headlines everywhere.
This is the way the world ends, not with a bang but a bant.

A superb thread that outlines just how little side-effects those first handful of patients dosed with @avacta's targeted chemotherapy, may have experienced.

Had #AVCT been permitted to provide detail in the RNS, I am quite sure that this would be front page, mainstream news.

Booked trip to Switzerland for family of 5 by @raileuropeuk with @TGV_Lyria at 3x cost of flying in an effort to travel SUSTAINABLY. Swiss quarantine means I now can't go. And while the airline is offering refunds and exchanges, the train company is refusing ANY help! Crazy.

"And yes, it really is this simple. We have the technology required to replace fossil fuels. The only thing that stands in the way is the power of legacy industries and the people who profit from them." https://t.co/4Clp7s3zxG #COP26
