@ArnoldCarton Still waiting on the 30 hours free child care as promised by @DianeForsytheNI
None of it means anything, empty, hollow commitments topped with lies!
Urgent appeal to UN-Secretary General Mr. Guterres:
Break the siege of Gaza NOW!
Time is critical: Establish an immediate airlift with lifesaving supplies to the besieged people of Gaza.

@StanCollymore Strategic greed driven actions are causing so much unnecessary conflict, hatred, retaliation, revenge. The world needs good people in positions of power making strategic peace driven decisions for this to ever change. Sad reality.
The Palestinian-Israeli conflict has been alive all of my life. In that time, some of the greatest politicians, journalists and philosophers who've ever lived have tried and failed to resolve it.
The worry now is that with arguably the least capable, intellectual, and most corrupt global political class ever, along with client journalism now being the norm instead of the outlier, that millions of people living in abject misery daily are neither served by their political leaders or the self ordained global policemen, east and west.
If you're a politician, no wonder people are apathetic at best and shaking with anger at worst.
On your watch, all of you. Left, right, centre. The least capable bunch at the greatest time of need.
Thank you to everyone who took part - event creators and attendees! We walked, talked, laughed, wrote, bathed, drew and above all we celebrated urban trees... a huge thank you for another fabulous Urban Tree Festival!
From all the festival team! @UrbanTreeFest
Over the last two years, I’ve been researching, and writing up, accounts of great trees in Britain and Ireland. I’m very relieved to say that I’ve finally completed this task, and the manuscript is now with the publishers. Find out more 🌳👇🌲 thestreettree.com/2023/03/18/gre…

“A Just Transition will allow Ireland green its economy in a way that's fair, leaving no one behind,” says Minister @EamonRyan as the EU signs off on Ireland’s Just Transition Plan to help former peat workers and their communities develop new livelihoods.

The real purpose of the war against the protocol is to dismantle the GFA, which has largely prevented NI from going down the route of Brexit. The DUP & Tories have no interest in the general good. The aim, again, is deregulation, destruction of public services, minimal wages etc
The UK Government has made an ad about the spiralling cost of living crisis, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative 🇬🇧

To carry 50,000 people per hour in each direction, a city needs a 175m wide road for for cars.
Even if those cars are electric.
And then there’s the parking.
OR a city can move A LOT MORE people in a lot less space, with A LOT LESS public money and pollution.
