Happiness😍! Look at these kids in #Barcelona experiencing true freedom in a 'BiciBus' to school every Friday. A small intervention with lasting impacts! Who can possibly oppose streets that foster this? (🎞️ by @lljunca)

Private water companies were handed a debt-free industry in 1989 under Thatcher. Since 1991 your water bills have gone up by 44% and a third of what you pay goes towards dividends payments and financing debt. They need to go bust and be taken back into public hands. Now. Not in 10 years' time.

The ‘Iran War’ - is barely 8 months old, but in that time our own homegrown green energy sources (the wind and the sun) have saved us nearly £6 billion. To those who bang on about the short term cost of turning some windmills off some of the time (you know who you are) - I say stick that in your pipe…:) buff.ly/BIot99A

Democracy only works when people have access to the facts. That's why I'm supporting @ChrisGPackham's petition calling for a UK-wide public briefing on climate and nature risks. Help us reach 100,000 signatures: petition.parliament.uk/petit…

If water were publicly owned, there would be nowhere for any water bosses to hide or manipulate water quality tests. This problem literally only exists under privatisation.

This isn't a horror movie set. It's a road in Denmark. The streetlights are red to save the bats. Bats can't see red light the way they see white or green light, so to them, it's essentially darkness. White streetlights are one of the leading causes of bat decline in urban areas. Light-shy species avoid lit areas entirely, cutting them off from feeding grounds and migration routes. Standard streetlights reduce bat activity by up to 90% in some species. Denmark figured out a fix. So did the Netherlands. When they installed red LED streetlights along roads near bat colonies, bat activity returned to normal levels almost immediately. The lights still work fine for humans. Drivers can see. Cyclists can navigate. The only thing that changed is that the bats got their night back. Do you want your city to do this?

How do we bring water into public ownership? @Feargal_Sharkey explains on Channel 4 News tonight 👇🤩🤩🤩 He is backing the new petition from @windrushwasp.bsky.social calling for a referendum so the public can decide 82% of us support PUBLIC OWNERSHIP

The Government needs to realise more regulation won’t fix our broken water system. We need to kick financial predators out & take it back into public control. But don’t just take it from me. Listen to a sewage campaigner who inspired Channel 4’s ‘Dirty Business’. @WindrushWasp

.@RoryStewartUK & @campbellclaret unfortunately couldn’t make it to the National Emergency Briefing. Would they consider having @MikeBernersLee on #Leading please? Mike chaired the NEB and sets out the UK threats - and the choices ahead - with exceptional clarity. #NEB2025
Professor @MikeBernersLee at the National Emergency Briefing. Clips from his opening and closing statements. "We are asking for a WW2 level of leadership. Leadership, as if the survival of our society depends on it. Because it does." #NEB2025 #NationalEmergencyBriefing
