Gordon’s scarred back exposed the brutality of slavery over 160 years ago.
Today, Palestinian Mohammad Abu Tawileh’s tortured back tells a similar story. Different time, different place—but the same logic: dehumanization, domination, and violence justified in the name of power.

On the one hand we have science telling us that climate change is real.
On the other hand we have oil companies telling us it isn’t.
It’s just so hard to know who to believe 🤷🏻

For three days in a row the heat record for June has been broken in the UK.
The same story right across Europe.
Any attempts at this key moment to slow climate action is utterly indefensible. We need day one action to accelerate our climate ambition from Andy Burnham.
BREAKING: The June heat record has been broken for third day in a row.
Wattisham in Suffolk has reached 36.9C, surpassing yesterday's highs of 36.7C in Merryfield, Somerset.

This heat is not only a climate emergency, it is class war. The rich burn the planet, then buy air conditioning, private pools and second homes while workers are left in overheated flats, unsafe jobs, failed public services and burning cities. Climate Action Now!

Parts of France are recording land surface temperatures above 55°C...approaching values commonly seen in the Sahara. The difference is that one is a desert. The other is supposed to be one of Europe's most productive agricultural regions. That's a very sobering thought.

This is the @metoffice forecast for Heathrow on Thurs.
In 2022, we were told this was now a once in a 30 year event. Turns out it's once every 4 years.
Why isn't this leading every news bulletin?

The fact that climate change & how to fix it is not the number one story every single day is proof of something deep & scarily wrong with our society.
Wet bulb temperatures on Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday could exceed >25°C widely.
This is the critical threshold for vulnerable populations (elderly, infants, or individuals with chronic illnesses). It is also the point where anyone performing moderate to heavy physical labor or outdoor sports faces an exceptionally high risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke.

A decade after Britain's momentous Brexit vote, any politician would have to be out of their tiny mind to campaign for Britain to rejoin the EU
