A few thoughts on the way home from @cantkillthespirit.bsky.social - a wonderful play I saw today about a Greenham woman whose activist spirit is reawakened in the climate movement 40 years on. One more performance tomorrow if you’re anywhere near Brighton #brightonfringe #greenhamcommon #protest

Wanted to share this unbroadcast clip from my film of the inimitable Pete Wilkinson discussing (in trademark style 😄) how @greenpeace.org founder David McTaggart plucked this 'ornery sonofabitch' from a Somerset post office to help start @greenpeaceuk.bsky.social in the late 1970s. RIP Pete 🕊

After reading my early '80s Ladybird book version at bedtime last night we've been on a Little Mermaid extravaganza! Watched today: the 2023 live action version, a 1970s Readers Digest cartoon (narrated by no less than Dr Kildare!) and best of the bunch - the trippy 1968 Soviet animation #filmsky

Why hasn't Labour just replaced the Lords with a 2nd chamber elected by PR? Instead we have more 30 more peers nominated by Labour, Conservative and Lib Dems. A PR elected chamber would have over fifty green members based upon the 2024 election result

You cannot claim to support law enforcement while cutting the programs they need.   The Trump Administration and House Republicans want to cut the ATF by $285 million. That's hundreds of positions lost and fewer tools and resources to keep people safe.

He lied to me. He said he would end the war in Ukraine, bring down gas prices, and lower inflation starting on his very first day in office. Yet here we are, still waiting for those promises to become reality.

Could #Hungary's media landscape change after 16 years? The public media may undergo a reform now that there's a mandate under #Magyar but it won't be simple. @veghzsuzsanna.bsky.social states that #Orbán has dominated the public and private sector for so long, reform will be painful and complex.

American families are struggling to pay their utility bills, and there's little relief in sight thanks to the actions of the Trump administration. Gov. Sherrill explains:

If you’ve been keeping up with the news out of Albany, you probably know that the New York state budget is late *again*. In this episode of State Government 101, I explain why this benefits Governor Hochul and stymies progressive political change, and what we can do to fix it.

A rare break in Florida’s sweltering humidity by late week! The tropical moisture originally poised to hit Florida is being shoved towards Texas instead. That means, after a very muggy start to the week, very low humidity for summer arrives in Florida by Thursday. But it also blocks our downpours.
