I hope we're going to see many charges for incitement to racial hatred, incitement to violence and incitement to riot, all of which have been happening blatantly and prolifically on social media. Or will two-tier policing in the UK, favouring the right and the far right, prevail yet again?

Trump is threatening further and greater war crimes in Iran: "completely obliterating all of their Electric Generating Plants... and possibly all desalinization plants!".
This directly contravenes the laws of war.
One day he and his enablers must face justice.

A billionaire can get what they want with one donation to a political party. The rest of us must fight for years to get even the most basic rights recognised. Money destroys democracy, more than any other cause. The first step towards a better world is to stop the rich buying political outcomes.

These people have a funny way of saying "Environmentalists have been proved right yet again."

Just remember: the hateful claims made against Muslims today were previously made against Jews (and often still are). Sometimes word-for-word. Same hate, different targets. We all stand together against hatred, or we will be picked off one by one.

Everything we need to do to stop climate breakdown, we also need to do for national security. Energy saving, more renewables, more electricity storage and interconnectors, electrification of transport, heating, cooking and industrial processes, plant-based diets. We win on all fronts.

As Antonio Gramsci pointed out, "common sense" is a "chaotic aggregate" of opinion, which is strongly affected by mainstream narratives. It feeds back into those narratives, reinforcing the status quo. He also observed that "The dominant ideas in any society are the ideas of the ruling class".

While available figures aren’t directly comparable, fossil fuel subsidies appear to be far greater than those for renewables, both explicit and implicit. www.iisd.org/publications...

Claim 3: “Fossil fuel markets are highly competitive”. If, as it appears, his yardstick is subsidies, he really needs to do some research. Globally, the IMF states, explicit subsidies for fossil fuels were $725 billion in 2024. Implicit subsidies were $6.7 trillion. www.imf.org/en/publicati...

Claim 2: “That’s why they are subsidised”. Generally subsidies are used to kickstart these new technologies, after which they take off, becoming MUCH CHEAPER than the fossil alternatives. As in the UK. Illustrative diagram from House Commons library.
