You would laugh at the puppet strings hovering above Andy Burnham's shoulders if it weren't all designed to draw the UK deeper into war with Iran.

@billmckibben.bsky.social I sat in affluent rooms with Hurst & Nakagawa last week, aghast not at their data center propaganda, which I expected, but at the oohs & aahs at every talking point. What use are sustainability professionals if all they do is applaud the bullshit they’re paid to challenge?

The climate space is still full of disingenuous assholes like Spiritus founder Charles Cadieu, whose motivation seems to have been profit, never climate solutions. Instead of doing the honorable thing and shutting down, he now helps produce more fossil fuels, yet is given a platform at NYCW.

Yvette Cooper's legacy is secure. She will always be remembered along with Keir Starmer as a genocide enabler who choose to lock up the disabled and elderly rather than stand up to Israel's horrors. She must never be rehabilitated into society. Her actions must haunt her wherever she goes.

I am so sick of the prevailing narrative around the Irish football team, that ‘it should never have been their choice to make’. As if any grown man wants other grown men making decisions for them, let alone men as weak, corrupt and inept as the Football Association of Ireland (FAI). 1/4

Ed Sheeran has never been apolitical. He attends Kneecap concerts and brought Macklemore on tour knowing exactly what he was going to say. Ed Sheeran just let better men do the talking for him, and when the heat got too hot, he turned into a sniveling little coward, choosing money over humanity.

Ed Miliband’s statement on Israel is only a first step. We need to go further: a full ban on goods, services & investment. Labour is still shamefully refusing to recognise the Gaza genocide. We must have a full arms embargo, full sanctions & an end to military collaboration.

For now, the UK's sanctions on Israel remain performative Kabuki theatre. Bloomberg reports UK diplomats privately told the US they are symbolic & Reuters notes the trade impact will be minimal. While welcome, much more is needed, beginning with Burnham calling Israel's crimes in Gaza a genocide!
