There will be many positive changes under a Labour government. Unfortunately a progressive aviation policy is not one of them. Labour is relying on so-called 'sustainable' aviation fuel to reduce emissions from aviation. Here's why that won't work:

What would good, from an asylum perspective, look like from Labour; 1. Scrap Rwanda, which they’ve pledged to do. Take all offshore processing & ‘third safe country’ processing off the table.

Today at Southwark Crown Court something profoundly significant occurred. The prosecution has finally acknowledged: 1) the existential threat from GHG emissions 2) catastrophic harm beyond 1.5C 3) we're at 1.5C 4) gov keeps licensing new oil and gas #DirectActionWorks

These peaceful protestors silently held signs bearing words on the legal rights of juries 🪧 They were arrested 🚔 Don't stay silent on this; support & share this attack on democracy Follow @DefendourJuries
While the trial of Roger Hallam and others continues today, 12 people silently held banners outside Southwark Court. On the orders of Judge Hehir, 11 were arrested for “contempt in the face of the court”. A recent High Court judgement over a similar protest by Trudi Warner ruled

It looks like Natural England ignored the advice of its own Science Director to go ahead with new badger culls, so as not to upset the farming industry. So we're starting the process of a legal challenge along with @BadgerTrust Full details in blog: https://t.co/avrQig2Rea

Many young people know that even if society corrects its course of travel, we are in danger. Something deep in the way we live feels off, and we are looking for answers — to learn about the climate crisis, and why civilisation seems unable to address it.

🚨 More than 60% of the world's population experienced extreme temperatures last month. Fossil-fuelled climate heating is making heat waves hotter and more frequent, leading to thousands of premature deaths. It's high time we put a stop to new oil and gas.

It's those knowingly destroying the conditions which make the planet habitable who are the criminals. As UN Special Rapporteur reminded Gov this week, the persecution of those resisting that destruction violates the legally binding Aarhus Convention https://t.co/56y64WAMNa

There are 1.26 MILLION daily cycle trips in London, on average. Despite this data, there are still commentators who try to claim that cycling is a niche activity conducted entirely by enthusiasts.
Cycling is becoming increasingly popular in London: 🚲 London's network of cycleways has quadrupled since 2016 🚲There are 1.26m cycle trips every day (ave) There's the potential for much more, so we're continuing to rolling out more cycleways & making streets safer for all.

Historic UK climate litigation victory, as the Supreme Court rules that emissions resulting from the burning of fossil fuels must be taken into account in granting planning permission for extraction projects. This case has potentially huge ramifications for future climate cases.
🚨 Supreme Ct rules downstream greenhouse gas emissions must be assessed before decision to grant planning permission for fossil fuel extraction 🚨 Marc Willers KC represented Sarah Finch w/ Estelle Dehon KC & Ruchi Parekh (@cornerstonebarr). Read on 🔽 https://t.co/rxk1ZSscUR

Today's decision by the Supreme Court in the Finch case is genuinely historic. It marks a turning point towards more sensible planning-related decision-making in the UK, and crucially towards a safer climate. https://t.co/a1QmuDIdFx 🧵
