Hey @Dove, you say you care about building girls' self esteem while you profit from plastic pollution that destroys their future. Why on earth do you think it's OK to treat our planet like you personal dumping ground? #DitchDove #RealBeauty #RealHarm

Against all the scientific evidence, the UK government is planning to EXPAND plans to cull badgers, despite killing 200k already. Sign the petition here, and help me save our furry friends:
secure.avaaz.org
If we don’t act fast, hundreds of thousands more badgers could be killed.

If you taxed every Billionaire in the UK so they only had £1bn you would get £1.1tn, an entire year’s worth of tax revenue. It would affect only 173 People. Tax the Rich, they’ve stolen all the money and dodged tax for decades. Abolish Billionaires. I followback

@GeorgeMonbiot Looking forward to it, @GeorgeMonbiot! There’s a lot to be said, but we hope you’ll consider pushing the point—and the panel—on the #ambitiongap between the main parties’ climate plans and what’s needed to secure a liveable future. #BBCQT #CEBill #COP28
“As powerfully documented in Zero Hour’s #AmbitionGap report, the Government has failed to upgrade its emissions policies in the light of new science—or include emissions from imported goods—or account for those from aviation and shipping.”—@GeorgeMonbiot

I am devastated Ben was my friend. He would pop in to see me in the office whenever visiting his mom in recent years. What he means to Birmingham knows no bounds. We loved him and he loved us.
Hugely sad to hear my friend Ben Zephaniah has died. He was a pioneer who inspired so many through the immense power of his poetry and prose. His humour, inflection and charm was legendary. My thoughts are with his family and loved ones. Rest in Power.

🌊 11 days of protest. 1 Arctic Sunrise. 16 crew members. 5 climbers. 2 kayaks. That’s what it’s taken to shake the deep sea mining industry to its core (1/5)

In September the Prime Minister and his Government announced delays for key climate commitments , tearing up plans to tackle vehicle emissions & phase out gas boilers . Today I can announce I'm taking them to the High Court – but I need your help . #NetZeroOnTrial

FUN FACT: Rishi Sunak spent more time FLYING to COP28 than he actually spent at the summit itself.

I’m just leaving this here as there’s an entire debate in the comments on the correct banding for different nurses, dental nurses are Band 4 but even if you look at Band 5 or the lower end of Band 6, the point still stands, which is - so many shortage jobs are below 38K

https://t.co/jLooYAlkh7 Head of CoP says that phasing out fossil fuels wld send us ‘back to caves’. What an utterly tired, unimaginably dumb, insanely false & dangerous thing to have said. CoP has become a corrupt, cruel joke. #BoycottCoP28 <Please share this tweet if you agree!>
