This felt like a trip down memory lane. I teamed up with @xruk-actions.bsky.social, which I helped launch back in the day, to call for the suppressed National Security Assessment to be released in full. Watch!

Reform arranged foreign 💰 to secretly fund polls that boosted support for Reform in local elections

Reform also takes massive funding from fossil fuels industry & all Reform’s energy policies - fracking, stopping subsidies for clean energy, scrapping Net Zero targets - serve their donors' interests
At Reform's conference, attendees include BP, Shell & ExxonMobil trade group, & Meta, which is funding new gas plants to power its huge expansion of data centres. No surprise that Reform politicians deny climate science & say they'll enable increase in fossil fuel production

Reform’s conference agenda is a toxic tapas of oil interests, anti-abortion groups and Big Tech lobbyists.

It’s not that the Media Sovereignty Act will solve all our problems. It’s just that we won’t be able to solve them without it.

Also wind energy

It's miles cheaper than gas and oil
Remember folks it keeps getting worse until we stop burning fossil fuels. 🧯🔥

War increases our prices
It affects supply and demand
7/ Fossil dependence is what makes bills volatile.

@thecccuk.bsky.social modelled a gas price shock in 2040. Stop decarbonising, bills rise 59%. Stay on the path to net-zero - 4%.

Since the Iran war, bills rose about four times more for a house with a gas boiler and a petrol car.

5/ The UK's fiscal watchdog agrees.

OBR, July 2025: 3°C of warming costs the UK economy about 8% by the early 2070s. Cutting emissions costs far less than the damage from not doing it.

Our energy bills will be cheaper
4/ Net zero is the cheaper path for Britain.

@thecccuk.bsky.social ran the full numbers in March this year. Net zero pays for itself and then some.

Benefits worth around £110bn a year out to 2050, overtaking the costs from 2029. Every pound spent comes back more than double.

Yet deny the real change that is necessary - energy transition
She contradicts herself in this piece
She also lies about China. They have built more solar energy farms than the UK. They are more energy resilient than the UK

Canada and Europe are already burning. People are suffering from the smoke.
When will they wake up and take their blinkers off?
Europe is buying up all of China's Aircon units to keep them cool. How will they cope when temps are higher and there's more fires 🔥
Skip forward 5 years and "we're going backwards". The world is about to pass the 1.5C threshold. Every major emitter is breaking its promises and condemning future generations to untold horrors.

This is the current rating for the UK:

BREAKING 🚨: reports suggest Andy Burnham could approve new oil and gas fields, including Rosebank.

Is he REALLY going to cave into the demands of the profiteering oil giants and Trump?

Or is he going to stand with people facing soaring bills and a worsening climate crisis?

We’re mad as hell and we’re not going to take it anymore‼️

As millions of us swelter in dangerously hot workplaces, schools, hospitals, public transport and homes, we discover the UK Government plans to spend £264 billion on carbon capture and storage by 2050.

Yes, £264 BILLION‼️

Why does the UK Marine Heatwave Matter?

Our seas are overheating. The Met Office says they’re currently 2 degrees above normal, with some areas 4-5 degrees warmer than average. This is the 3rd & strongest marine heatwave this year & may reach the extreme category.

Climate Activism & the Far Right

Why should climate activists be concerned about the rise of the far right?

Because anti green rhetoric is putting climate action on the defensive, giving mainstream parties an excuse to abandon policies they never fully backed.

The far right’s green bashing has given mainstream parties an excuse to do nothing – but we have more agency than we think | Ajit Niranjan
As powerful forces push back against green forces, it is little surprise that many of us feel dismay. Climate scientists do, too. But together we can take action to challenge the prevailing apathy

IMO you don’t need patriotism to motivate civic pride and caretaking. You just need two shared goals that I think most people really can agree on: those of making your place welcoming to guests and leaving the next generation better off than your own.
