It's horribly hot again. I thought I said stop flying/building data centres/cutting down trees/dropping bombs/factory farming meat. It's almost like people can't connect what they're doing with where it's heading.

Andrew Tate’s lawyer is claiming they will be executed in the U.K. Unfortunately MAGAs will believe anything so just to be really clear, there is no such thing as the death penalty in the U.K. and there hasn’t been for many decades.

♀️One shared that ‘all Women I have spoken to did not know that they can oppose licensing strip clubs’, with another sharing that ‘90% strongly agreed – and straightaway – that these clubs encourage men to see Women as sexual objects.’

📋Feedback from Women on the day was that the majority oppose the clubs and most were unaware that Women have the right to object to these yearly renewal applications. This mirrors the research findings: filia.org.uk/strip-clubs-research

🧵Last weekend, a small team of FiLiA volunteers were on St Mary’s Street in #Cardiff to talk to Women there about the three strip clubs and to encourage them to get involved in our campaign to close them down. #NoMoreStripClubs #Wales

Closing tax havens and taxing the biggest climate polluters could unlock US$1 TRILLION every single year to fund climate resilience, rebuild devastated communities, and transition to clean energy. We don't need vague promises. We need bold action from our governments.

"Women accounted for 100 percent of the decline in the labor force in July, according to a National Women’s Law Center analysis of the Bureau of Labor Statistics’s latest dismal jobs report. Overall, the economy lost 23,000 jobs in July: Women lost 32,000 jobs, while men gained 9,000."

I believe Clacton deserves an MP who will spend their time shining a light on everything the area has to offer. And why wait till I'm elected? I've been to visit one of the constituency's most stunning landmarks.

Loosening the ZEV mandate means keeping UK manufacturing. We get to the same goal - everyone driving electric - a bit slower but crucially whole swathes of the Midlands, the NW and NE aren’t deserts of joblessness while hugely subsidised Chinese EVs take over

‘The Taliban has imposed more and more restrictions on women, including banning all books by female authors and closing down beauty salons, which had become many women’s last refuge.’

‘Afghanistan is the only place on Earth where girls are banned from high school and university. Women are banned from parks, gyms and most jobs and not allowed outside without a male guardian’ Important reminder from the great @christinalamb.bsky.social www.thetimes.com/article/83bb...

In case you can't see the titles, it's Michael Crick's One Party After Another: The Disruptive Life of Nigel Farage, and Accidental MP by Martin Bell. Fingers crossed for another accidental MP.

It's worth taking the time to read this by Carole Cadwalladr, she clearly lays out the timeline of Farage's and Reform's corruption, (also links between Tories and Harborne) leaving no doubt of his guilt.
