We urge the PM to keep the delay to implementing the junk food advertising restrictions as short as possible & look forward to the policy being implemented in Jan 2024. We call on Rishi Sunak not to abandon child health. #ChildHealthUTurn ⁦HENRY

Please read; the most important piece I've written. Mass poisoning has suddenly killed off most sea life for 30 miles by the Tees. The govt claims it's natural; ind scientists warn it's manmade. The govt is desperate not to inquire too deeply as its freeport policy is at stake.

I just signed this "cease and desist" letter to fossil fuel CEOs from Greta Thunberg, @vanessa_vash, Helena Gualinga, and Luisa Neubauer. It demands an end to the fossil fuel projects that are destroying our planet. Join us! World Economic Forum World Economic Forum #wef23 fb.avaaz.org/campaign/en/da…

Today, on #MartinLutherKingDay let's remember how Dr King was not only a great leader of the American Civil Rights movement, but also a committed proponent of nonviolence. Like millions of people throughout the world I admire his dream of greater justice and equality for all.

Happy #InternationalSchoolMealsDay! 🍽️ @childrensfood polling shows 9 in 10 parents want schools to offer a good range of #healthy meal options suitable for children. 🧡 It's great to see such support from parents who know the impact of a nutritious school meal. 💪 #ISMD2024

We shared findings from our new #FuelUsDontFoolUs report, which reveals the predatory tactics being used by the biggest food companies to manipulate children through the packaging of unhealthy foods. This is at a time when 1 in 3 children face a future of food-related ill health
