Nothing says “change” more than *checks notes* a grey image of a sixty-something white professional man in a shirt and tie with his sleeves rolled up very slightly, with an expression that suggests you’re parking in the spot he usually parks in, which tbf is not a designated parking spot, but he usually parks there and everyone around here knows that, and he accepts that you’re new here, but maybe next time you could remember that, by the way do you follow the football. #ukpol #labour

Carbon capture and storage will play absolutely no role in "the energy transition" as there's no evidence it can be scaled up in any meaningful way that even lowers emissions, and isn't creating energy either.

CCS is simply just a scam that's been designed by and for the fossil fuel industry so they can keep burning and profiting - and make you suffer for it.

So not disabled or incapacitated if you are under 22 years old…? Are you supposed to live on air? Not everyone has a home and parents; if in foster or state care can be thrown out at sixteen. This is monstrous, cruel and I hope it’s challenged in the courts. #Disability #Labour

UK: Even the Evening Standard is urging people not to vote Labour in the upcoming elections because of its horrific transphobia, racism, xenophobia and ableism. Labour is already Reform.

It was only a matter of time before this happened.
This government is falling apart and it's all it's own fault for standing for nothing more than the Rich.

Did Labour really think all these MPs they kicked out or silenced would just sit around and take it without doing something themselves?
