We need to have some clarity about the causes of the rioting over the past few days.

A 🧵about the rioters, the instigators (two fairly distinct groups of people), and the processes leading to the current unrest. 1/21

- Living costs & inflation at an all-time high
- NHS struggling daily
- 1/5 people in poverty

Our prime minister on a private jet stating empty promises the same week he made transphobic statements:

[Rishi Sunak @RishiSunak]

This week I took long-term decisions to build a brighter future and change our country.

This change will:

🏘️ Transform our towns
🚆 Boost our transport
📚 Improve our education
���� Reduce cancer deaths

Here’s how👇

Just in...

Hottest day on record for Rome, Italy with a staggering 42.9°C

Also hottest day on record for Catalonia with a searing 45.3°C.

A short thread on some of the most extreme temperatures on the planet right now...

This total madness happening to the 40,000,000 km² of the North Atlantic Ocean surface is getting worse, as we expected.

Many are still in denial.

But we are all finding out together as we go.

In the past 4 years alone, each city has experienced it's worst day of wildfire smoke in recorded history.

The Earth is on fire. Our negligence is killing our planet. We must change our ways.

BREAKING : scientists warn of a high chance of catastrophic 2°C global warming in the 2040s or 2050s with impacts that humans can't adapt to even if emissions rapidly decline 🧵

Drop a fag butt in the street and get fined £80. Dump millions of gallons of sewage in the river and 292 Tory MPs will vote to let you keep doing it for the next 15 years.

Not sure who needs to hear it..

Don’t drink drive tonight.

• Life expectancy down 448 days.

• Retirement age up 730 days.

And the government now plan to raise the retirement age by another 365 days (1,095 days higher in total).

All while paying the lowest pension in Europe.

Stand up. Fight this.

@Hiokyeff @nataleebfitness @PurpleKisses__X Hook on to the edge of the bench with your shoulder blades and stay in that position - creds to the person who created this bc it’s the perfect explanation:

‘A Learning Experience’ is a nice term for corporate manslaughter.

Disgusting what has happened to 2 year old Awaab and his family.

[Serum @SerumDnb]

Help! The government has been struck by lightning, caught fire, crashed into a mountain and then had a grand piano dropped on its head.

Any tips on shopping sustainably would be appreciated 🤍

[Tabs🦋 @tabsgrantt_]

I’ve been buying from fast fashion for years. Not proud of it, but like most people, I’m educating myself on other options for sustainability & ethical reasons. I’m referring to this website now: https://t.co/QN1oEYdEmb

[Tabs🦋 @tabsgrantt_]

What’s scary is alternative brands I thought were sustainable actually aren’t, even the ones that advertise themselves as such.
