@paulmyszor @TheGreenParty Hi Paul. I'm not really signed up to any ideology but after long conversations with my daughter I'm convinced that justice requires self-id rather than humiliating medical procedures. It's about basic dignity not ideology for me

This #TransAwarenessWeek
let's take time to celebrate that Scotland is on the path to self-ID for trans people
I'm proud that my party, @TheGreenParty, would introduce self-ID across England and Wales
Respect, humanity, and dignity demand this change

Even Murdoch is appalled by the world his propaganda has created

I'm no big fan of big finance but successive governments have put most of our eggs in this basket
Leaving the EU has devastated this sector they depended on

💚 Great to hear my old mate @ProfJohnBarry laying down a clear line on energy crisis in N Ireland on @BBCr4today
🌎🏡The answer is a familiar one: urgent home insulation and investment in the renewable energy transition
🤔I wonder how much of this we’ll see on Thursday

So Jeff Bezos is giving his fortune away?
Of course! Nobody could spend that much money
How much better it would be if we had a wealth tax and if Amazon hadn't avoided paying corporation tax
Then money could be spent by governments for benefit of all

So much for taking back control of our borders
Migration policy will always need cooperation with other countries - as will every other policy
This is why the ideology behind Brexit was so absurd
And why we’re paying such a high price for it

Jeremy Hunt isn’t able to deny that Brexit has contributed to our economic woes
He knew in 2016 and knows now that leaving the EU is an economic disaster for the UK
The conspiracy of silence is making us poorer

My temporary withdrawal from Twitter reminds me of when I gave up my car
My life was diminished while everybody else carried on the same
So I’m back, wading through the filth, hoping things will improve
Can the users somehow restrain the absurd hubris of the Musk?

I also collaborated on producing a textbook!

@MadsFalkenfleth @rethinkecon Hi Mads
Brilliant thread - thanks
You don’t mention the CORE teaching resource. It’s still pretty orthodox but encompasses key issues of concern like climate - and it is clearly a response to this movement
I’d be interested to know your view of that
