Hey @British_Airways Stop taking deportees now. Passenger advice:
1) ask at check in if there’s a deportation on your flight;
2) if you see a passenger accompanied by 2 guards, talk to them;
3) stand up and refuse to sit down.

The new guidance from the Committee on Climate Change says that we can't accommodate any increase in airport capacity. The court ruling today is that the third runway can go ahead, not that it will go ahead.

Much respect for the Sipson community, the direct action crews and the climate campaigners who, as they have many times before, will be summoning their resilience, determination & creativity to stop this climate catastrophe from going ahead #nothirdrunway theguardian.com/environment/…

The ”net” in ”net-zero emissions” could be among the greatest - and most dangerous - loopholes ever created. The fact that our governments are using the same language as the worlds most polluting fossil fuel companies really says it all... #FightFor1Point5

Yesterday the govt came under scrutiny in the Lords over whether they are going to let oil companies like @bp_plc, @Shell & @Equinor sponsor the #COP26 climate talks. Still refusing to rule out the sector @Ggow_COP @corporateeurope @biofuelwatch @FoEScot cultureunstained.org/2020/10…

This morning, the govt published its call for sponsors for #COP26 in Glasgow in 2021 - as well as its selection process.
Which sectors/industries will the government screen out from the applicants? Could this mean a red line on fossil fuel sponsorship?

Add your voice to our vision for a fossil-free Pride! Tell Pride organisers to #DivestPride and drop @Barclays sponsorship!

The crowd-funder to pay for a Judicial Review to challenge the decision to allow Manston to open as a freight airport (with the probability of passenger planes as well) has raised £25,000 in just 9 hours: crowdjustice.com/case/suppor… via @CrowdJustice

Greenpeace should not participate in oil industry PR events.

It's important environmentalists build relationships with oil workers and communities, but big oil mustn't set the terms of the debate. This is just brazen greenwash. @GreenpeaceUK @Greenpeace @Climate_Action_
