It’s good to see the Labour Party stopping the rise of Reform by [Checks Notes] enacting the exact same policies a Reform government would, so there’s nothing left for them to do when they inevitably win anyway.
Nigel Farage on Facebook: The NHS has finally banned men from accessing women's spaces. Good.
But why is this happening 18 months after the Supreme Court's ruling?
Reform will protect women's spaces and ban radical transgender ideology in schools.

The terminals, which are distributed and managed by Elon Musk’s SpaceX, are a key component of Ukraine’s military operations and the sudden restrictions on the high-speed terminals on Tuesday evening led to the failure of several combat missions, said an adviser on military technology to Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

How AI quietly rewrote Big Tech's climate promises
October 12, 2026 · Luís Cruz

In 2020, Microsoft promised to be carbon negative by 2030 and Google called 24/7 carbon-free energy “our biggest sustainability moonshot yet”. Six years and one AI boom later, the companies’ own data puts all four of the biggest cloud and AI providers roughly 60 to 80% above where they stood around the time they made those promises. The pledges were quietly reworked to fit. Goals became moonshots, baselines became year-over-year, “100% renewable” came to mean a yearly total rather than the power actually running the servers, and carbon-neutral claims were discontinued. Here is the scorecard, how the goalposts moved, and what to ask your AI vendors.“AI will help solve it”
Alongside the rising numbers runs a second narrative. Google and BCG wrote in 2023 that AI “has the potential to help mitigate 5-10% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2030”, a projection from a consultancy report, not a measurement.20 Microsoft called AI “an essential tool to accelerate progress toward sustainability”.21 Google’s 2026 report announcement estimates that nine of its products helped others reduce about 41 million tonnes, “roughly three times Google’s own emissions”.6

Maybe. But enabled or avoided emissions are counterfactual estimates with no agreed standard, and they cannot be subtracted from an emissions inventory. However large the estimate:

A tonne someone else might not have emitted is not a tonne you did not emit.

We need to sustainably go into space and build resources, have a base on the moon, which would act as a gas station to the rest of the solar system. At the company, everyone felt like we were saving humanity.”
