Rishi Sunak putting personal profit ahead of everything else

Hello & good morning! A lot of heat and not much light in the last 24 hours about new oil & gas licences in the UK, so let's take a closer look shall we?

Wow, hypocrisy much??

Conservative's energy policy HAS been written by big oil and gas and funded by Tufton Street.

Their policies are eco-cide, threaten the lives of everyone and deepen the climate and biodiversity crises.

This is the crux... So many people, even those who know and agree that climate change is the biggest issue of our time, do not agree with protest groups actions. But what is the alternative??
Great piece by Jolyon Rubinstein
This affects us all. How can we work together?

Another insightful thread from Stephen.
Connecting the dots this also explains why those conmen leaders turn to sowing misinformation & oppressing people who finally see through the lies & stand up to them. They use those still blinded to turn on them.

Tonight there are #kakapo in the forest of the North Island of Aotearoa for the first time in over a century. We released four into Maungatautari Sanctuary Mountain today. #conservation #returnofthekakapo

Fantastic news, well done Charlotte and Which?

'Free speech is the cornerstone of our democracy'
🤔
Says the PM that has brought in laws to prevent peaceful protest.

Says the PM who gags protestors arrested for giving the reason they were protesting as their defence.

Free speech as long as you want to hear it Rishi?
