Of course unions look out for their members but it defies belief that they chose *this week* to lobby for more North Sea oil drilling. They should be lobbying for super-generous retraining terms.

@unitesharon.bsky.social very disappointing. I usually like what you have to say, but opposing a rapid move to net zero - esp during a record heatwave! - is the wrong thing for workers, and the wrong side of history. Clean energy is bringing good, well paid jobs! www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

@zackpolanski.bsky.social this should be about his commitment to PR. If he commits, then Reform won’t be able to form a government. But if we Greens block him, it’s FPTP in 2029 with a good chance of Reform majority. We must work together to prevent that. That could begin here.

10. In the meantime, a plant-based diet requires much less land and produces far less harm than the average, animal-heavy diet.
