Today Prince William is lecturing us about Climate Change. Yesterday he flew in a Private Jet, then a Helicopter, then travelled in a multi vehicle Land Rover Convoy. Early this year he went on holiday in this $450m Megayacht that uses as much fuel as 2000 cars. He is full of shit

Andy Burnham repeated in #PMQs what Wes Streeting said earlier this week, in that the Falklands would remain 'British' so long as the people of Falklands wished to be British. In a 2022 poll, 78% of Scots stated that they did not see themselves as 'British'. 😃 #ScottishIndependence 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 ✒️ ✅️

Hard to think of a more deeply damaging start to Burnham’s premiership than giving green light to new oil & gas in N. Sea, if true. It won’t lower bills or lead to greater energy security but will drive an even hotter planet. What a terrible signal to give to rest of the world #ClimateVandalism
