@dorfman_p Then to fully convert my modest 2 bed semi off fossils altogether would cost at today's prices just over £25k. It's already properly insulated & has MVHR The point is that while I'm an ardent supporter of renewables, they're only part of the diversity of base & load the UK needs

University of Oxford : maximising oil and gas extraction here would only save UK households up to £82 (€95) per year. A UK fully powered by renewable energy, would save households up to £441 (€510) a year on energy bills. euronews.com/2026/03/27/eur…

@dorfman_p That's nice dear. Like most automobile drivers in the UK, my BMW 2 series doesn't run on renewable electricity & scrapping / replacing it with an equivalent EV would cost about £50k but would also mean I can't do my current role & would have to take a drop in pay of about £25k pa

@Wakethefitup I don't call it any of those things, and yes I don't doubt there were a lot of decent folk on the get together However, there didn't appear to be any love for the UK or its people & not a single union jack or union member nation flag Decent? I'm unconvinced

@bottomley50 Ok, I'll keep it as simple as is appropriate for the tinfoil hat wearing bedwetters Assume 1 million on the march. Plus another 5 million who would've been there if they & supported it 6 million The other 60 odd million of us don't give a single solitary fuck

@narindertweets I've heard it was 3 million Anyway, I'll note that there's little in the media about it. Mostly because the overwhelming majority of people in the UK (& not just the reviled white working class) have far more pressing priorities than joining an increasingly sinister movement

Any mention of the 500,000 who marched against the rise of the far-right and racism yesterday in London on ##bbclaurak or Trevor Phillips this morning? Or have they just ignored it?

Hundreds of North Sea licences granted by UK Tory Govt between 2010 and 2024 produced only 36 days of gas. Tories, Reform selling fantasy of endless gas reserves. Energy security needs more investment in renewables, nuclear, better insulated homes. theguardian.com/business/2026/…

The rise of the Green Party & growing anti racism alliance is about to destroy the hopes of Farage & his cronies in taking this country into a dark place based on prejudice fear & division in our society

Gordon Brown got bullied and ridiculed. Ed Milliband got bullied and ridiculed. Jeremy Corbyn got bullied and ridiculed. Sir Keir Starmer is getting bullied and ridiculed. Don't know about anyone else, but I'm seeing a pattern. 🤔 #ScumMedia

@BruceUnfiltered When the government came out with the idiot statement last week about forecourt profiteering, I just sat & shook me head at the blatant hypocrisy of it all The winner is...HM Treasury & if they gave a single solitary fuck they'd waive some tax temporarily Fat fucking chance

This image says it all. Top image: what you actually pay. Bottom image: what fuel could cost without tax and VAT. Unleaded shown at 143.9p becomes 67.0p. Diesel shown at 166.8p becomes 86.1p. That tells you exactly how much of the pain at the pump is government-loaded cost. And then they wonder why people feel like they’re being robbed.

@paulpottsmusic @Good_Old_Blakey @BruceUnfiltered @tonymc42 I've looked into this over the years & I can't see a correlation wherein aid prevents or even reduces conflict Indeed in Africa aid has fuelled almost a regression in terms of development I'd recommend a read of Dambissa Moyo's book "Dead Aid" which articulates the matter

Britain is presently generating 71% of electricity from renewables and is exporting some to boot. Nuclear plus renewables is presently 85% of all electricity being generated. Good things are possible. Ignore the boomer Murdoch press.

@MiddleEastEye 500,000? 1,000,000? 10,000,000? Sort your fucking lives out The only difference between the 3 figures is the uplift in intensity of the smell of piss, weed, BO & weeping bedsores

Over one million protesters took to the London streets in what is believed to be the largest anti-far-right and pro-Palestine demonstration in British history. Organised by the Palestine Coalition, the "Together for Palestine – Stop Bombing Iran" march is protesting the ongoing war while showing continued solidarity with the Palestinian people. In a historic show of unified opposition, the anti-war demonstrators are joining forces with a major UK rally against the far right, coordinated by the Together Alliance.

This march was huge, beyond all our expectations. A display of solidarity across communities. So proud to have been part of it from the first thoughts of launching this initiative. Massive success. We now have to build on it. @UKTogetherAll
Together Alliance@UKTogetherAll

Today, we’re showing up. For our neighbours. Our friends. Our family. And anyone who has been scapegoated by the far-right. Half a million strong. Together. This is just the beginning. #Together
