@SocEnvJustice How would you limit the impact of road traffic in London - please provide a list of 5 clear bullet points to reduce road traffic

LTNs move traffic to the already busy roads. And with it air pollution.

The Wayback Machine is absolutely essential for research. Losing it would be like losing the internet's entire memory.

I bet this is going massive on the broadcast media #Rayner #DoubleStandards #FarageFreeRide

oh my god. was trump told to tell the press that the image was "doctored," but misunderstood and told everyone that he was depicted as a "doctor"?

“If you criticise Palantir’s platform one more time, you are going to lose your job.”   Solidarity to all NHS workers opposing this toxic corporation. Shame on those bullying them. But they won’t stop us. We’re going to ditch Palantir.      ft.com/content/ff7015…

I would 100% like to see penalties for using mobile phones while driving massively increased. Wish they could be immobilised in cars.

It’s is not a ‘evacuation order’ it is a forced displacement order with a death threat. Forced displacement of civilian populations is a war crime.

We are repeatedly told that NHS funding is 'unsustainable'. Somehow that adjective never gets applied to arms spending, bank bail-outs or tax dodging by the rich.

"Our main news this morning is a former NATO secretary general saying Britain is not safe.. Lord Robertson also took aim at the amount of spending on benefits" Isn't this the same Lord Robertson who is also a lobbyist for US defence companies by any chance? Isn't this a conflict of interest @GMB ? Tax Lord Robertson more then. Why do they always make it about welfare?

Imagine if NPR ran the headline: “Russia plans to create buffer zones in Ukraine and Georgia to protect its territory”

Ridiculous statement from Ex Nato chief - UK unprepared for war due to an “ever-expanding welfare budget”. 25.3m people live below minimum income standard. Since 2010 HMRC failed to collect £500bn of taxes. Does he think poor/ill make better defenders itv.com/news/2026-04-1…

“Vance Says the Pope Should Be More Careful When Talking About Theology” Definitely headline of the year nytimes.com/2026/04/14/us/…

This is the world we're living in: 'Trump’s executive order sanctioning Albanese prohibited any American person or entity from providing her with “funds, goods or services” – a description so broad it has been compared to a “civil death”. Her apartment in Washington, bought when she and her family were living in the US capital, has been seized. She can no longer use a credit card anywhere in the world, as almost all such transactions are processed by US-based services. “I go around with cash or I have to borrow from friends or from family members,” she says. 'She accuses pro-Israel activists based in Geneva of hounding her husband, Massimiliano Calì, a senior economist at the World Bank, in a campaign that led to him being removed from his lead position running its Syria file. “The World Bank was completely craven,” Albanese says. “He has stellar records of performance in all his positions.”' theguardian.com/law/2026/apr/1…

A CGTN reporter - "I witnessed at least 10 Palestinian children under the age of five who had been decapitated" Never forget that Western media gave more coverage to Israel's fake propaganda about Hamas beheading babies than to this actual events - when Israel beheaded Palestinian children

This is Bint Jbeil in South Lebanon. A historic town with roots stretching back over 3,000 years. Israel is erasing an ancient village that is at least 40 times older than Israel itself. And not a peep from the so-called “international community.”

Even the Meloni government in Italy is to suspend its military agreement with Israel.... ... while Britain's remains in place. And when will UK national media even report the UK has a secret military agreement with Israel? 👉 declassifieduk.org/secret-uk-isra…

Zack Polanski, "It's not enough to just be hopeful... It's about having hope and a plan" "I also disagree that left wing policies are popular" "Didn't you - Jeremy Corbyn - get 3,000,000 more votes than Keir Starmer got?" Jeremy Corbyn, "The highest vote this century for Labour, it was 2017" Zack Polanski, "That's 3,000,000 more people who wanted to move wealth away from private capital, to nationalise our water services, nationalise our public services, and that's very popular in this country" "Broadband is a good example of how the media jumped on saying it's not possible, not pragmatic. And that's their number one weapon, to always make people think that better isn't possible, and that change isn't possible" "And we know why. The multimillionaires and billionaires who pump money into wars, or oil and gas, or into arms companies, or into gambling companies" "Once they've bought up the assets, they buy the media, then they buy our democracy" "I guess we're here tonight to say that they're taken our power, they've taken our democracy, they're taken our media" "But collectively, we are going to take it back"

Two headlines less than 24 hours apart. Second‑worst in the developed world for avoidable deaths because of underinvestment and bad spending decisions. Yet private companies providing NHS services walked away with £1.6bn in profit. How has this been allowed to happen?

Don't be fooled: renewables are NOT REPLACING fossil fuels, they're ADDING to them. Emissions are at record levels and rising, and global warming is accelerating. What matters for the climate is fossil fuel consumption, not how fast renewables are growing.

Jeez. Labour MP’s have just voted to give police unprecedented powers to ban recurring protests turning a fundamental freedom into a privilege granted by the state. No protest movement has ever brought about change through one single march or action - it’s precisely the cumulative nature of protest that has resulted in progressive change and held governments to account. More than 40 civil society groups including the TUC joined forces to oppose this draconian crackdown by the government on our rights to freedom of expression and assembly but the government has driven it through anyway. How did it come to this?
