"...the media and wider public sphere had become unfamiliar with key arguments about tax & economic policy & over time sentiment had shifted Left-wards" - How can this be true? We've had 12 years of right-wing economic policy and a right-wing media landscape forever?

Total reds under the bed, those gilt traders. They just wanted her radical economic agenda for tax cuts for the wealthy to fail.

Gaslighting. Just like the hard left, it’s always someone else’s fault that their radical (delusional) agenda doesn’t work out. If only the world was different and respected how fundamentally right she was. I’m lost for words…. or I will be when I have to renew my mortgage 🤪

on the plus side, the coal mine site will be required to have a sustainable travel plan twitter.com/Bankfieldbecky…
Incredible to say it, but we are discussing the consent of a new deep coal mine in the UK, despite all that has been said in recent years about the phase out coal.
This is a very bad decision – supporting a technology of the past, with a very poor prospectus for new UK jobs.

Watching #bbcqt for the first time in ages and shocked to see the BBC providing a platform for
people denying the existence of #climatechange. Is this part of ‘balance’?

Thanks for the question Victoria . No apology wanted or needed. Believe me, if I felt differently you'd know. A loaded question maybe, but I got to say on national tv what I've been saying to in our kitchen for months. I'm glad it's struck a chord.

Do you think Johnson statement tells the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth? If so press LIKE. If on the other hand you think it is the deluded self-serving bullshit of a disgraced lying lawbreaker press RETWEET

Lack of urgency in gov for addressing #climate 🌎 & #nature 🌳 emergencies giving me ⬆� anxiety. Makes me more sympathetic to radical protest, though delicate balance that can switch people off. Still, let’s get back to the popularity contest in Conservative Party #omnishambles

It is a challenge to read this. The forecast for societal collapse by the worlds leading scientific consensus group is terrifying. Is it just too scary to look at? Do we treat it as if its got to be an exaggeration because we cant imagine this being real? bylinetimes.com/2022/05/26/un-
