The misconception that renewable energy is costlier than fossil fuels is outdated. Since 2010, solar and wind energy costs have plummeted due to technological advancements, making #ClimateAction more affordable. Check out this UN article for facts: www.un.org/en/climatech...

Congress of Business (COB25) met yesterday to discuss turning sustainability strategies. Unfortunately Barclays sponsored the event. So XR Glasgow decided to picket the event and supply all the delegates with a leaflet outlining how committed Barclays is to a sustainable future💚

Massive Attack 👏👏👏👏

KNEECAP ARE NOT THE STORY

If senior politicians can find neither the time, nor the words to condemn, say, the murder of fifteen voluntary aid workers in Gaza, or the illegal starvation of a civilian population as a method of warfare, or the killing of thousands & thousands of children in the same territory, by a state in possession of the highest precision weapons on earth;
how much notice should a music festival take of their moral advice on booking performing acts?

As a band that has spoken publicly for more than 30 years about the illegal occupation, apartheid system and killing with impunity of thousands of Palestinians, we are hyper aware of the both the human cost of abject political silence, and the commercial implications of publicly expressing solidarity with an oppressed people.

Language matters of course.
The hideous murders of elected politicians
Jo Cox and David Amess means there’s no scope
for flippancy or recklessness.

But do politicians and right-wing journalists strategically
concocting moral outrage over the stage utterings
of a young punk band, while simultaneously obfuscating
or even ignoring a genocide happening in real time
(including the killing of journalists in unprecedented
numbers) have any right to intimidate festival events
into acts of political censorship?

Kneecap are not the story.

Gaza is the story.
Genocide is the story.

And the silence, acquiescence and support of those
crimes against humanity by the elected
British government is the real story.

Solidarity with all artists with the moral courage to speak
out against Israeli war crimes, and the ongoing
persecution and slaughter of the Palestinian people.

Massive Attack.

Here's a question. Why, in almost all reports on Blair's statement, have his fossil fuel interests not been mentioned?

I had a right old rant about Tony Blair's ignorant, self-interested statement on The Jeremy Vine Show today. I mentioned that he has worked as a lobbyist for PetroSaudi, earning Tony Blair Associates £41,000/month, plus 2% of any deal he brokered. Starts 9 minutes in: www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

The UK Labour government is plunging 250,000 people into poverty with their cruel cuts. Poverty isn't inevitable, it's a political choice. It's time for real change. It's time to tax the rich.

If you live in Southside Central, vote Laura Vroomen #1 in today's by-election. Laura would be an incredible advocate for communities in the ward @glasgowgreens.bsky.social

At its height, it's been estimated that one in every eight pounds spent in Glasgow went through the city's cooperative societies, meaning much of the wealth generated in Glasgow remained within the local economy rather than being drained away from it. #glasgow #glasgowhistory #cooperativemovement

The evidence is damning: there’s been $600 billion in climate-attributable insured weather losses this century. That’s $30B per year - and accelerating. For 15 major insurers, these losses now exceed what they earn from fossil fuel underwriting. [2/8]

Climate-attributed insured losses total $600 billion, accounting for over a third of total weather-related insured losses (2002-22), and are growing at a faster rate

Here we have it - no investment, no redistribution of wealth, just more of the same from Starmer's Labour that we had under the Tories. No wonder the right are thriving, Labour are leaving the door wide open for them. If it wasn't already clear - fresh left perspectives needed.
