🤨 Investing £22billion of public money in a technology with a track record of failure is NOT going to help the UK achieve its climate goals, or create good green jobs. Here’s why (thread):

Thanks for highlighting this. It’s worth also flagging that beyond the immediate £22bn allocated, the Gov expects the total cost of #CCS to 2050 to run to many hundreds of billions. Partly public, partly private - but all paid by us. bylinetimes.com/2025/06/11/r...

The UK just committed £22bn to carbon capture and storage – a tech with an 80% failure rate that lets oil & gas greenwash their emissions. At this CCS conference, most speakers repped fossil fuel companies. Share if you think it's absurd we're funding tech that protects fossil fuel profits 🙃

Protest outside Wes Streeting's office on Monday

Hey everyone! Queers for Palestine, Trans Kids Deserve Better, The Dyke Project, London Trans Pride, Fag Revolt and RS21 Are calling the entire queer and trans community to join us outside the vile Wes Streeting's constituency office. We are responding to the Palestinian Youth Movement's call for a 'Siege on Labour' on Monday:

When: Monday 4th August at 6 PM

Where: 12a Highview Parade, Ilford, IG4 5EP (15 minute walk from Gants Hill central line station)

? Why: Wes Streeting and the vicious 'Labour Party' are accomplices in the zionist-made famine in Gaza. Streeting is also responsible for the deaths of many trans kids past and future. We are taking unified action across the country on Monday with these demands:

1. A full two-way arms embargo on Israel

2. An end to British RAF surveillance flights over Gaza

3. For the British government to use all UN and sanctions levers to force Israel to allow aid into Gaza

4. For David Lammy to resign as foreign minister after lying to the public about arms sales to Israel

This government is dripping in the blood of our trans siblings and of the Palestinian people. We must act together to force Labour to meet these demands.
