Peaceful climate protesters have just been sentenced to years in jail. And they’re appealing. Join me in telling the new government to scrap Tory anti-protest law now and #StopJailingTruthTellers secure.avaaz.org/campaign/en/uk…

BREAKING - #Rosebank oilfield just given go-ahead - the greatest act of environmental vandalism in my lifetime, causing emissions equal to 28 lowest income countries, busting #climate targets & doing nothing for energy security since vast majority is for export #climatecriminals
