Adventures with J

@RichardHills_ It's shameful

You’d think after all we’ve been through this year, political parties would be falling over themselves to do the most climate action possible. It’s depressing that it feels the opposite, from two major parties anyhow. The legacy we’re leaving the next generation is horrific.

@PerkintheHermit @MeganMcCubbin @Sneapster @UKLabour @Keir_Starmer Not just UK political parties. The entire global politician breed seems to be in total denial to the point of doing the reverse. It's terrifying.

@MeganMcCubbin @Sneapster @UKLabour @Keir_Starmer LibDems and Greens should be all over this - We need new environmentally friendly party with a sensible view on rest of economy. How hard can it be - mainstream parties have both lost the plot - too busy scoring political points to wake up to what’s happening.😢

Currently sat on a delayed 8hr train from the Scottish highlands to Bristol. Flying would have been a lot cheaper and quicker - but with the environmental cost…. Well here I am, sat on a train. It makes me so angry that we all try are hardest to make small differences every day. Something they’ve encouraged us to do, saying it’s our responsibility to change… whilst they’re approving new oil and gas mining licenses in the North Sea. No words. Anyone else feeling desperate - like this could be the final straw?

@MeganMcCubbin Yes and it is a horrid feeling of helplessness.

@SkyNews So sad. Thoughts to his family and friends.

@tes And the Government once again shows how little they understand their own education system. Throws arms in air! Put education under control of actual teachers - please!

Allowing teachers to do their PPA work at home once a week 'might contribute to reducing the overall effect of the workload burden', according to a new government-commissioned report tes.com/magazine/news/…

@nicholasroche Top class ride. I was nervy they were going to ruin it when they all stopped and looked at each other but thankfully there were no games played and they just went for the win. Perfect!

Been asked many time why riders bother with breakaways on flat stage! Well this is why!! Congrats to the 4 brave riders up the road all day! They got a proper reward 👏💪

After a rough day for our city, I’m glad to see people are choosing to head safely to Eden Park for the Opening Match of the FIFA Women’s World Cup. Spoke to a few families on the way to Britomart who felt it was important for their kids that they go & celebrate something good.

The wait for the #FIFAWWC is finally over... ⌛️ #NZL v #NOR starts now!

Scenes at the #FIFAWWC 2023 opening ceremony! ✨👏 #BeyondGreatness

The perfect start for the #FIFAWWC co-hosts, @NZ_Football! 😍

@Matt16082013 @Goonerjon Neon zebras!

@Goonerjon This is, hands down, the worst Arsenal kit. Ever. An absolute abomination. This won't get cult status like the bruised banana, its just too ghastly. I mean, ffs, how can you lift trophies wearing that?

I mean this is just horrible. So bad. To go from that awesome black kit last year, to this, is just nonsensical. I guess it could become a cult classic like the ‘bruised banana’ in 20 years, but right now, awful. Not buying.

Artificial lawns should be banned. In the face of a biodiversity crisis, we should be creating habitats, not covering our gardens in ugly plastic where no life can exist. They're non-recyclable, dangerous to pets, the negative list goes on... please sign!! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/6331…

Lots of clickbait articles doing the rounds at the moment. There’s absolutely nothing to suggest that a heatwave is on its way. The medium term outlook is for average or just below average temperatures.

@SkyNews Wow! New level of ignorance by an Education Secretary!

Headteachers should pick up absent pupils from home, says education secretary Gillian Keegan news.sky.com/story/gillian-…

@MarkCavendish the best cyclist. A total legend! Wishing you a speedy recovery.

@RichardHills_ I can't believe this can happen in 2023. Shameful.

Again. So messed up. A politically stacked justice system making America go backwards again.

The Isle of Man is NOT a country! England is! Think you need to update your knowledge. #worldle

@evakatona I think you can write about and portray whatever you wish as long as it's real or declared to be fantasy. Eg. Portraying a product as wonderful when it isn't is not okay as misleading/lying to people
