RT @GreenPartyJack: I don’t know about you, but depleted, unused grassy fields are as much of an eyesore to me as a field full of solar panels. And I don’t think we should be prioritising the feelings of people driving along the M6. We’re in an emergency, we need to start acting like it. 3/3

RT @GreenPartyJack: Excellent segment from Dr Paul Dorfman on Today just now regarding Sizewell. Renewables could provide our baseload as early as 2030. Nuclear power cannot be quickly ramped up and down, and represents a huge opportunity cost due to its vast expense.

RT @TerryReintke: ‘Invasion’ is a term continuously used by the Far Right in Europe when speaking about people trying to find shelter.
It is obviously supposed to spread fear instead of actually solving any issue related to border management or the safeguarding of fundamental rights.
Shameful.

RT @AJS77: BBC World at One @BBCWorldatOne utterly demeaning itself by giving nicotine-stained hate-monger and Brexit traitor Nigel Farage a platform to spout his bone-headed, reactionary, xenophobic lies on cross-channel migration.
Very poor form by the BBC #WATO #Dover
