Hello! I'm no longer using this platform. I'm on Insta and threads (and will be on blue sky) it would be lovely to connect there if you are too. Stay well friends x
50,000 people, 1,000 organisations, 230 scientists and 160 MPs are urging @Keir_Starmer to give the Climate and Nature Bill time to progress in this crucial session. We need a science-led, joined-up plan to tackle the climate and nature crises NOW.
It’s time to back the science, and back the #CANBill

As a child bereaved by fatal domestic abuse, headlines calling a man who killed three women a “nice guy” and “normal person” have felt personally traumatic.
The media called my father a “gentle man” and “nice chap”, which misrepresented the controlling reality that myself and my family experienced for years. It compounded our trauma.
Reporting like this causes so much damage – both to victims’ families, and to public understandings of coercive control. It has to stop. Now.
We need every single newsroom trained in how to report domestic abuse deaths, and to lobby the regulator for stronger rules. The press has the power to prevent further deaths and save women’s lives.
Please support this crowdfunder I’ve started to support @we_level_up’s crucial work to train journalists in their Dignity For Dead Women guidelines.
This takes all of us ➡️ https://t.co/iPJGFUs7Qn
Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.
The Greens got the same number of seats. Why don't you go and talk to Carla Denyer about the unstoppable rise of progressive green politics every time she sneezes instead?
