This could be great news, smart and right from Hamas, disarming in return for an Israeli withdrawal and the chance of a Palestinian state. Israel will resist this, its the last thing they want, but with Trump's support this has a chance. Israel has no legal or moral leg to stand on.

We need to be pragmatic about the North Sea, driven by facts and figures not ideology or vote chasing. We also need to be bold, we need to end the Casino Capitalism that enriches Big Oil and impoverishes millions of Brits - and disables our economy. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Our North Sea is all but empty, it has a ten year future - BP knows this as well as anyone. The ‘higher value opportunities elsewhere’ is an admission of this. news.stv.tv/north/bp-to-...

World’s gone mad, council pulls free food for kids in holidays, local cafe steps in - police called. But not for the child starvation part..:) www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Reform council chief threatens to report café boss who fed kids for free to copsEXCLUSIVE: Barry Ashley, who runs the Grumpy Cook café in Hastings, and Labour MP Helena Dollimore have been told by East Sussex County Council chief Andy Woolley that he plans to contact police…www.mirror.co.uk

Scary possibility, Nuclear power station taken out by wildfires. Welcome to the climate crisis, where we learn that the energy sources we thought were reliable - fossil and nuclear - are not. Both being highly affected by heat. www.thetimes.com/uk/environme...

This is Reform in action, foreign, crypto, disguised donations - a drip drip of revelations, are we at the bottom yet? I liked the words of one Clacton resident this week - Farage should come clean or clear off. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Oil companies make a killing out of war - but at the heart of this is ‘casino capitalism’ - we don't pay for oil and gas on a cost plus basis, a price linked to what it costs to produce - we pay the ‘market price’.

This article overlooks some basic big picture facts - renewable energy is a forever fuel, our transition to it is a great investment. We get forever jobs from it and we also get energy security from it - there is none in fossil fuels - our North Sea will be empty of oil and gas in ten years.

Funny old world - where now is the free market? Heathrow can claw back the costs of its own studies into a new runway, from its captive audience. Flying is too cheap anyway so I’ve no issue with added cost per se - but this new runway is in Heathrow’s interest. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Scary new world this, truth as a commodity that can be gamed. Where we gonna turn for facts? Our traditional media has been poisoned for decades - by the agendas of their rich foreign (always male) owners.

Just another extreme event we might have to adapt to as a regular feature of life - as the climate crisis bites.

Hot on the heels of the historic ruling last week, now known as Vince - this case against Musk uses the same approach, GDPR rules protect us all against misuse of our data, picture and name. Musk has no prospect of defending this in my view, a new law - or finding in law - has been established.

Great piece of work from Lidl and a great perspective to have - planetary and human health do go hand in hand. What’s bad for us is also bad for the planet - like eating meat and dairy for example, and foods full of fat, salt and sugar (aka processed foods). www.edie.net/britains-die...

Gas prices always rise in a global crisis - the cost of production stay the same, anxiety over supply shortages and speculation drive prices up and create windfall profits - which mirror windfall added costs for consumers.

Interesting polling, people in Clacton see through Farage - "how many houses does he have? He’s part of the establishment. He does the bare minimum as an MP, he’s using us”. And the £5m to "spend on Ferraris if he likes" - makes him look out of touch. lordashcroftpolls.com/2026/07/he-w...

If I had a £1 for every time someone asked me this question...

As ever, the selective focus on the short term costs of ‘grid constraints’ misses the big picture - obviously that’s an accident..:). The big picture is a saving of over £100bn on our energy bills in a 13 year period to 2023 - reported by University College London in a recent report.

What a mess. Reform are the poster child of political sleaze - with their numerous breaches of regulations and criminal investigations and now we learn actual frozen bank accounts - every day seems to bring a new revelation....

Tim Stanley has this right - climate denial should be a crime, the lack of action on the issue ultimately costs lives - 100k expected deaths across Europe this summer. And of course many more people badly affected.
