I’m advised that I shouldn’t say what I really think about this because one has to treat politicians who behave in this manner as difficult children and allow them to grandstand. But I will say that almost everyone I speak to has run out of patience. on.ft.com/3OiFxWG

Blatant & wilful misrepresentation from Oliver Dowden. Any new North Sea oil & gas will be sold on international market at global prices. New climate-wrecking fossil fuels won't cut bills, won't help energy security, certainly won't cut emissions - and he knows it. #DPMQs

Congratulations...looking forward to read this in more details...
How are #ribosomes assembled 🏗️ in human cells?   In our new paper out in @ScienceMagazine, we used genome editing 🧬 and #cryoEM 🔬❄️ to reveal the molecular details of how the large ribosomal subunit (60S) is assembled in human cells. (1/n)   👉 science.org/doi/10.1126/scie…

Key line from jaw-dropping interview with climate-criminal Shell: "Ultimately, I am in the service of shareholder value." Fossil fuel giants knowingly pollute our planet and escape with obscene profits. Win-win for fatcats, lose-lose for public & climate. bbc.co.uk/news/business-6610…

WTF?! The UK is one of the world’s richest countries & we’re really going to tell our kids we can’t “afford” to pay for a liveable planet for them?? And we’re going to betray some of the poorest countries? This Govt’s moral bankruptcy is truly sickening theguardian.com/environment/…

Today MPs debate the most dangerous Bill you've never heard of. The #AntiBoycottBill - forcing public bodies to ignore ethical concerns about investments - attacks freedom of expression, erodes democratic principles & threatens climate & human rights campaigns. It must be stopped

King Charles inherited £650m tax free, gets £350m a year tax free from the tax payer and has an estate worth £22bn that’s never taxed. One coronation wasn’t enough so on July 5th he has one in Scotland. Like if he doesn’t need another coronation RT if you want the Monarchy gone

Lady in green, "As a child I couldn't understand how the nazis came to power. And now I understand it... Truss and Kwarteng tanked the economy, my daughter is paying £400 more a month for her mortgage. They are deflecting all of that by talking about small boats." #BBCQT

Andy Murray has been criticised by the Right Wing Media for saying this Wimbledon advertisement is bad. It features 5 male tennis stars in the foreground and the women hidden in the back. If you agree with Andy that this advert is horrible give this a RT Shame on Wimbledon

#PrivilegesCommittee report shows Johnson's cronies propped up a serial liar then attacked an independent Parliamentary committee for finding against him. Sunak, these are your MPs & even one of your Govt Ministers. If you let this slide, you're complicit bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66051280

Michelle Mone received £29m of pure profit, because her husband helped secure £200m of useless PPE. RT if you would like to get the money back and toss them both in jail.

The problem is deeper than Boris Johnson. Never forget that Tory MPs voted him leader, knowing he was an incompetent liar, and 360 Tory MPs kept him as leader, knowing he was an incompetent, law-breaking liar. It's the Conservative Party that is the problem. It enabled him.

I can’t tell you how angry this makes me. I’ve called out Sunak’s outrageous scam on public sector pay so many times. Why are UK news shows not getting this? If you share my anger please RT this widely. If they can’t or won’t get the job done let’s damn well do it for them
At #PMQs today @RishiSunak shamelessly tried to ridicule SNP leader @StephenFlynnSNP for “complete economic illiteracy” when calling for fair pay for public sector workers BUT IT’S THE PM WHO IS BEING “ECONOMICALLY ILLITERATE” not Flynn and he knows it! Thank you Stephen Flynn

Minister says water privatisation has enabled "clean & plentiful water". What?? Since privatised, water firms have borrowed a staggering £53bn, much of that to help pay £72bn shareholder dividends - while sewage pours into rivers & seas. Privatisation has utterly failed @We_OwnIt

Sorry. Am I reading this wrong? From the man who was in charge at the time now saying it was NOT his fault, but the fault of whoever was in charge at the time? At the risk of sounding like the Pope, ARE YOU KIDDING ME WITH THIS SHIT, MATT??! bbc.co.uk/news/health-660293…

I have just learnt that on the day it was privatised Thames Water was debt free. It has now run up £14 billion worth of debt by paying bonuses to its executives. Why do British people put up with this so often?

Thames Water is set to be temporarily renationalised so we can pay their BILLIONS in debt before being privatised again so we can be ripped off AGAIN. Like if it should stay nationalised FOREVER. RT if we should Renationalise ALL the water companies.
