@BillLinton1 It does indeed. You are right. But we focus it round memorials that list those who fought and died in WW1 and WW2. Indeed we often erase or elide our involvement in the perpetuation of war and oppression in places beyond Europe.

#NeverAgain means not letting those conditions that led to the Nazi horrors ever arise again. It doesn't mean not going to war to liberate the victims. But first, spot where you're creating the victims, and how you become a perpetrator not a liberator. Stop before, not after 👀

Why #ClimateJustice? Because consuming too much and leaving others with devastated homelands leads to war and displacement. And no one can live well (or at all) in a bunker on a boiled planet. Even the very very very rich.

Our monarch laying the wreath today doesn't have personal memories of the wars we remember on Remembrance Sunday. How many of those involved still do? As it passes from living memory we need to turn our gaze carefully to see the rising threats to world peace now. #ClimateJustice

@embournemouth @davidyelland @BBCNews @ITV Remember that their "handling" of covid included handing out billions in corrupt contracts, and milking the magic money tree for their mates with no useful outcome. When we could have had an app for free from a country that had done one that worked (for the cost you'd expect).

The worry is not just that they are suddenly charging people with this new law (just on the basis that you might be going to a protest) but that they think that journalists reporting on protests are committing a public nuisance and must be silenced.

RT @Britain_People: Tory MP @danny__kruger claimed £3,598 on expenses for his utility bill last year.

This was the highest claim by any MP to cover their bills in such a short space of time.

Retweet if you think Kruger should pay for his own gas and electric supply.

People ignore the vital importance of the soil. Petrochemical fertilisers are a route to famine and destruction. We need to return to farming with organic matter and reforestation. This is as urgent as counting CO2 beans.
PS famine 👉war and migration.
