I don't really have the words to post with this image. I always try to focus on hope, but when I see this I wonder: how loud do the alarm bells need to ring?
All I can think is: don't despair, organise.
Change happens because we make it.

❌ Extreme weather is becoming more frequent and more dangerous - but the Government is failing to protect us.
✅ To limit its frequency and its damage, we need to phase out fossil fuels and properly prepare homes, businesses and infrastructure.

Fuel poverty is a national scandal - & yet the PM recently scrapped measures to make homes warmer 🤔
https://nitter.cz/TheGreenParty
solutions are clear: invest in home insulation & raise building standards - for warm homes, good jobs, & lower bills. 🏡💚

A shocking report on the rural housing crisis.
Over 2,500 people are currently affected by rural homelessness here in the West Mids – up 37.19% since 2018/19, and the 3rd highest for any region in England.
Rural communities are being left behind by this Conservative government.

An alternative budget to boost rural areas
like Herefordshire:
💚 Easing the stress of cost of the living
🤝 Renewing our economy with support for sustainable business practices
🦷 Repairing our services with more funds for NHS dentistry 🚍 and local powers over rural buses

Today's cabinet reshuffle shows the Conservatives are desperate. On everything from housing to the environment, to foreign affairs, they have run out of talent, and run out of ideas.
