New gas drilling could be approved within weeks. This would be a climate disaster. The decision belongs to the Energy Secretary - our local MP for Peckham, Miatta Fahnbulleh. @miattafahnbulleh.bsky.social - please stand by your previous commitments. Reject Jackdaw! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It's time Parliament genuinely reflects our votes. And with the majority of the public rejecting Nigel Farage's politics of hatred and division, we can't let a broken voting system hand him unchecked power. It's time for proportional representation. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

We've all experienced the cost of water privatisation: droughts, flooding and excess pay for the bosses. The Prime Minister has it the wrong way around. We can't afford to not bring Thames Water into public ownership.

The Prime Minister wants to take power from local councils and give them to more distant regional Mayors He says he's pro-devolution - but this is the wrong way around. Power should move closer to people, not further away. www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Turns out, for 15 years, Southwark had a secret shortcut to Malibu and Laurel Canyon! 🚗✈️ Why we didn't pick up on the misdirected sign for over a decade? Well, as I joked to @metrouk.bsky.social : 'You’d be forgiven for confusing Rotherhithe with California...' 🌴
