We must tackle rising tide of racism and homophobia claiming to be free speech, says Streeting
Exclusive: Health secretary says Labour cannot afford to ignore far-right protests as Starmer under growing pressure * UK politics live – latest updates Wes Streeting has called it “laughable” that rising racism and homophobia is a sign of free speech in a strongly worded intervention suggesting Labour needed to step up its defence of minorities. The health secretary told the LGBT foundation on Monday he wanted to address “the elephant in the room” and said he understood why some were questioning “whether this government is really on our side”.

Enjoyed sharing my thoughts with PitchBook for The Weekend Pitch last week. Despite political backlash against sustainability, investors are still looking for balanced portfolios that take all risks into account - including climate! You can read the full piece here: pitchbook.com/news/article...

UKSIF CEO James Alexander responded to Nigel Farage’s claim the UK “can’t afford” net zero, warning that fossil fuel reliance drives up energy bills and economic risk. He noted renewables are now cheaper than coal, oil and gas, making investment in solar and wind smart for growth and jobs.

If you’re looking for a possible silver lining (for global emissions at least), China is about to sell a hell of a lot more clean tech to emerging markets.

For a rich country the UK has a pretty terrible record on child poverty. We are among the worst of advanced economies when it comes to the share of our children living below the poverty line. This has to change.

Common Sense @cmmnsensedspnsr.bsky.social · 24/02/2025
More true every day
Passage from Carl Sagan’s 1995 book, the demon haunted world. The passage states “ not explaining science seems to me perverse. When you’re in love, you want to tell the world. This book is a personal statement, reflecting, my lifelong love affair with science. but there’s another reason: Science is more than a body of knowledge; it is a way of thinking. I have a four boating of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time - when the United States is a service or information economy; when nearly all the key manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those and authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good, and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness. The dumbing down of America is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media. The 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially, a kind of celebration of ignorance.
