70k signatures to rejoin the EU. Big petition, timely too - polling shows the public is in favour. Let’s get it to 100k and push Labour to debate rejoining. It’s the glaringly obvious solution our economic problems and the rise of the far right.
Please RT.

Do please repost — in a clear message to @Keir_Starmer — if you emphatically don’t want him to give Trump his state visit.

I want to vomit every time I hear someone from our goverment saying we are going to be world leaders in AI.
What a crock of dangerous BS.
What about being world leaders in looking after our landscapes and nature, looking after our people, looking after our health and our diet?

BOOM! Bishop Mariann Budde has responded to her critics who told her to apologize to Donald Trump.
“I am not going to apologize for asking for mercy for others.”
Smash that RT if you agree she owes Trump ZERO apologies!!

Populism seeks simple scapegoats for big, complex problems. Labour thankfully won't scapegoat the EU or immigrants but, shamefully, is scapegoating nature instead. This is bullying. And it is stupid. We need a habitable planet stay alive, happy and well. theguardian.com/politics/202…

Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power.
RETWEET if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!

I stand with @jessphillips. Do please reTWEET if you do, too. This is beyond party politics now. It’s about whether as a nation we still have self-respect. #IStandWithJess

I strongly recommend sharing this as widely as possible to counter some of the lies and hate being stirred up by Musk, Farage, Jenrick and Badenoch.
And this was while the Tory govt was doing as little as possible to respond to the 2022 report?

This is Eva Marie Kogel, the opinion editor for the German newspaper Welt. She has resigned in protest after Welt published an op-ed from Elon Musk supporting the AfD, a far-right political party with ties to Neo-Nazis.
RETWEET to thank @EMKogel for standing up for democracy!

Why use Mercator's projection @BBCNews? It massively exaggerates the size of Greenland.

English spelling is a cruel joke
Why does ‘gh’ stay silent in “daughter” but sound like an ‘f’ in “laughter”?
The thing is, English spelling is actually 100% logical — for the Middle Ages
Here’s how the 'gh' sound disappeared from English, and left chaos in its wake…🧵
