30°C above normal in the Arctic today. 40°C above normal in the Antarctic today. It would be unbelievable if it were not true. And it is terrifying beyond words. The war we have waged against the natural world has, in climatic terms, just gone nuclear.

In a daily mail article Rt Hon Nadine Dorries has claimed those who oppose the privatisation of C4 are “ill informed.” Well let’s look at some of her claims, and I promise not to mention the fact she didn’t know that Channel 4 is purely funded through advertising, not the taxpayer.🧵

Scientists now glued on at BEIS. Why?   "Last week scientists released a report that sounded the final alarm. We must end our addiction to #FossilFuels fuels NOW. The UK Government then announced it will increase exploration for oil & gas" Dr Thierry - Earth-System Scientist

The situation for the Conservative Party is worse than you think. The difficulty lies, however, in explaining how serious it is without falling into the language of hyperbole. So, I shall simply list some developments as dispassionately as I can. 🧵

Does anyone know where the flight to Rwanda is scheduled to leave from on Tuesday? Who the carrier is? Timings etc. Because if it goes ahead we need to be there. Objecting on Twitter just won't cut it. We need to be there. And we need to take action against the carrier.

The French parliament passed a law in 2011 outlawing fracking because of concern it can pollute drinking water. Today, England lifted the ban on fracking. Not content with pumping crap into your water, they’re now going to poison you with gas as well.

Can you help? The Avon and Somerset Police have told me that ‘racism is not a crime.’ Stagecoach SouthWest falcon service has stopped picking up black and brown men at a certain bus stop near me. The drivers accept white passengers. This is apartheid in action. 1/4
