Hi everyone - I'm starting my switch to the less toxic air of BlueSky. I'll be here less and there more. Come on over! bsky.app/profile/rupert…

@phil_1965 @SunlitUplandsUK @Telegraph I also have an electric car, which I can charge entirely at the 7.5kW/h rate. This means 2p/mile driving costs (negligible tax and servicing). Together, it makes huge savings. Vehicle to Grid (V2G) technology will utilise car batteries soon to even out supply peaks nationally.

@phil_1965 @SunlitUplandsUK @Telegraph The system cost was 8k. I estimate it will pay for itself in 4 years.

@phil_1965 @SunlitUplandsUK @Telegraph Combined with battery storage. I can get overnight cheap energy, and sell back surplus production to the grid.

@rupert_higham @SunlitUplandsUK @Telegraph Well I’ve got 18 of em on my roof and I’m lucky if I get 3kwh in the summer on a good day for about 3 hours. no way can you run a house on 3kwh for 24 hours.

@phil_1965 @SunlitUplandsUK @Telegraph Yes we are. Combined with battery storage, I pay nothing for electricityv for 6 months of the year.

@SunlitUplandsUK @Telegraph They’re not saving hundreds.

📺️ Fantastic interview with Dr Rupert Higham from the Institute of Education at UCL and Prof David Putrino 'On Medical Education for Long Covid, ME and IACI' It is divided into short named chapters for accessibility and there is also a transcript. #LongCovidAwarenessDay youtu.be/S5amDZFaVeE?si…

@rpj1354 @VETERAN_TEF @TheGreenParty @reformparty_uk You actually don't know what tactical voting is. It didn't happen here.

what this result shows is a tactical vote wins, @reformparty_uk finishes second in an area that was a supposed Labour safe seat. The celebration today isn’t the tactical vote, but the fact that Kier Starmer finishes 3rd in a safe seat. It shows that the two main political parties are finally finished. THATS TODAYS CELEBRATION

@TheGreenParty Still waiting for Green Party policies

Labour—like the Conservatives before them—are in a crisis of their own making. It's time for a different kind of politics. Join the Green Party ⤵️

This is Emily Mendenhall’s Substack piece which lays out her dealings with Wessely. Superb comment on the article by @LongCovidAdvoc underneath. #ME #LongCovid open.substack.com/pub/emilymende…

🧵PUBLIC HEALTH SHOULD NOT BE A CULTURE WAR 😷 It’s bizarre watching politicians, like Kemi Badenoch perform trauma around masks while millions live with the reality of not masking; death, disability, ME, Long Covid. The Guardian are asking for opinions on masking 🖇️👇 /1

@BulkyMike9100 @AdamBienkov Yes. Next?

@AdamBienkov Hominids began using fire around 1.5 million years ago. Do climate scaremongers mean to tell me that the carbon consumption of ALL of those fires doesn’t surpass, by some margin, what a little country burned for a 150 yrs during its Industrial Revolution?

Kemi Badenoch says her decision to ditch her climate commitments is due to her having "listened to the industry". No mention of the millions of pounds her party has received from the funders of fossil-fuel linked lobby groups bylinetimes.com/2025/03/18/kem…

@holder_det_vel @LongCovidAdvoc You're entirely wrong, I'm afraid. The article specifically warns against repeating the indirect actions, and provides reframing alternatives.

@LongCovidAdvoc Who wrote this? Almost all of your advice about what to say, repeats the incorrect assertions (even if there is a negation in front of it). That's the absolute worst strategy. Speakers must to stick to the facts.

Delighted to see senior Green politicians coming out to support #MEAwarenessDay.

@ThereForME_UK This is a great statement - it captures ment agents is a dire situation and offers solutions. So good to see ME and Long Covid charities and advocacy organisations standing shoulder to shoulder. #WorldMEDay

On #WorldMEDay the UK ME community faces a twofold threat: the loss of critical welfare benefits, and a lack of meaningful treatments to pave their way back to work. This must change. We’re asking the government to back the new ME Delivery Plan with the resources it deserves.

@DisIdealist It will be ugly.

@rupert_higham Hope this guy is ready for the Lab-Tory uniparty smear campaign now heading his way.

Brave move, Zack. Your senior Green colleagues are great, but the message isn't cutting through. Reform have all the momentum. Ethical left populism is what we need.
