Get real. The true leader in this otherwise woeful pack and big winner is Ed Davey. Before you ask. Have those who prefer Kemi Badenoch to Ed Davey seen her outrageous gaffe on national security? Ed's solid on UK public services, our need for security and place in a turbulent world.

Putin's hasty unreasonable demands are a 'look over here'. Did Putin see the danger? Epstein was leading to questions about 'what does Putin have over Trump if its worse than Epstein?'. So what is worse that Putin has on Trump?

Unsure Russians understand what’s happening every time Ukraine takes out a refinery, it accelerates global wind and solar transition. His mate Xi’s put up more new this year than almost all the world managed before 2020. Think about it, Mr Putin. Now f-off out of Ukraine. Grown-ups calling.
🌏The world's not waiting for Putin to leave Ukraine 

Ukraine’s drones hitting Russia’s Kirishi refinery (around 40% of capacity), didn’t just hurt fuel output.

Putin’s oil economy becomes more fragile with every lost refinery, driving the world faster toward renewables and electrification.

Oil and gas take years to rebuild
Solar and wind take months to install.

⚖ 2024 Reality Check
• Kirishi refinery (Russia lost): ≈ 12 million tonnes / year ≈ 140 TWh energy
• China new solar (built): ≈ 220GW ≈ 300TWh /year
• China new wind (built): ≈ 75GW ≈ 180TWh /year

Totals grow:
China adds roughly 3× more clean energy in one year than Russia loses from one large refinery.
The rest of the world adds to that total each year.
Each year's growth adds - last year's install repeats.

⚡Each refinery fire sparks global just transition.
⚖️ Maths and momentum are on Zelensky's side.

Would you rather see someone in charge who plays for us, or one who wants to play us for fools again, like he did in Brexit? If you don't know who Farage is with here yet, find out now! Let's fix his making us all poorer.

Remind me. Who from the UK likes to stand next to Trump? Farage. Why risk your vote on 1st of May towards an end of the NHS education and Opportunity forever. What's in that for you? I'm in it for you, your children and grandchildren. @LibDems : your freedom and a fair deal.

So sorry Lisa. Aren't we sensible in the UK to nurture the #NHS and an absolute right to treatment based on need, irrespective of means. #Farage wants to end the NHS and bring in an American system. That costs about £11,000 pa per American. NHS is about £4,000. I asked ChatGPT for more...

🚨 Worcestershire's swans are dying. DEFRA needs to act now. With Cllr @MelAllcott, I’m calling for urgent action to remove bird flu-infected swan carcasses from River Severn. DEFRA must act to avoid cross species infection. #Worcester #BirdFlu #WildlifeCrisis #PublicHealth #LibDems #tenburywells

Where's your MP? The country's being blown to bits. Wind so strong there are questions about whether vehicle insurance is valid in the red zone - only essential travel is permitted. Ring your MP's office now please. Climate and Nature Bill is cheaper than clearing up ever more ferocious storms.

Capitalism needs a reset. Barnier is forced out but the losers will be the poor as Starmer has shown. “We cannot lie to the French by saying there will be no consequence. There will be consequences and the consequences will be paid by the French people.” says Lécornu.

How fast could this 48.4% be raised to 120%? Same solar + big storage. Then, only very, very occasional gas top up needed. We can afford net zero now, at speed, to achieve this, against spending £50Bn on one nuclear power station decades away.

Let's reach for blue sky through the dark clouds. Nice one Jon! Your profile note is great! Is the talk of the concept of the social-media town-square being under threat, if we lose Twitter, overblown? I think so. They can't afford to lose it. We can do better here. It's called leadership.

Anyone listening to @bbcr4today could be forgiven thinking: Has @UKLabour missed the point of governing an economy? Why a budget before the American election? Ignoring the majority saying the economy can only prosoer as a member of the Single Market. Is judgment missing? @LibDems

UK under 5s need more than free school meals. Utterly shocking data since 2010. If Lehmans + austerity account for it, it warns us: write constitutional new policy to ensure it can never happen again. Food banks are not the answer. We must do better and starting today. @LibDems

Has he stopped listening to Labour supporters? Parties have people on both sides of the tug of war on policy, holding onto an end of that piece of spaghetti in a bowl that regulates our way of life. Looks to me new gov's lost sight of the bowl. Thankfully @LibDems Ed Davey is all over it as am I.
