  1. @urlyman I think politicians need a new term to describe the aim to cut fossil fuel use. Net Zero has been so weaponised, it now reads 'woke', and can be easily dismissed. I hope Burnham's Comms teams can come up with something catchy to reflect new urgency for action in face of current heatwaves.

    Music to my ears. Vote Labour to get serious action on climate. Green policy is what matters, not tribal allegiance, and Labour politicians currently are in a better position to deliver it than Greens.

  5. Donald Trump furious at Miliband’s appointment as foreign secretary

    "Andy Burnham has been warned that the US president ‘will not forget’ Ed Miliband’s fierce criticism of him in the past and that he has some ‘serious diplomatic repair to undertake’ in his new role"

    Does anyone really give a crap what Trump thinks? This is the UK government not the US. Last time I checked we were a different country.

  7. @ChrisMayLA6 And he's banished #EdMilliband - who seems to understand #climatebreakdown - to the Foreign Office... who'll be Energy Secretary?
    As if you needed any more reasons to join @thegreenparty

    Please boost this! I know on Mastodon we are preaching to the converted, talking amongst ourselves, etc. But perhaps we still need reminding to support those politicians in a position to get Net Zero done. Whatever the failings of Labour in UK (I know many on here are sceptical of Burnham), they're in power for now and need support for green agenda.

  11. @ZackPolanski This sort of talk doesn't make me want to vote for your party. Exaggeration, over-simplification of complex issues, lack of respect for opponents. You sound like Boris Johnson. We can probably all safely call Trump a liar, but let's not cheapen politics further with more name-calling. I'm sticking with Ed for now.

    Might almost have supported UK war to stop Putin invading Ukraine, but absolutely oppose US/Israel attacks - and oh, for more investment in #energysecurity (strength to elbow of #EdMilliband - I think?) #UKPolitics

  14. Ed “the gonk” Milliband starts speaking on #LBC #radio

    Time to watch a #clangers episode as they speak more sense.

    #EdMilliband is a clueless fucking twat

    He does have two kitchens though.

    That makes him an A1 Deceiving Twat.

  15. @GreenRupertRead The people who attend COP, and keep plugging away at the climate issue are heroes. The rest of us must also keep plugging away. There is at least now a grudging awareness of what needs doing, thanks to these heroes, and we must support politicians and journalists who push that agenda forward.

  16. Oh Polly, Reform don't care about being right, just being Populist. They'll attack these Green Jobs simply as 'Wokeness' & that will be that.
    Thankfully, the polls are starting to show people are getting tired of Reform's schtick, seeing it played out for real in the US is probably helping (as is having a decent counter to the populist lies in Zack Polanski)

  18. First day of #FossilFreeLondon picket outside #DESNZ went well this morning, despite the rain; some supportive staffers - and even a brief interchange with SoS #EdMilliband . Many already know the arguments to #StopRosebank; if you're a UK voter, make sure they hear from you too #UKPolitics

  20. They won't ...the Greens will.

    Billionaires are not our friends, but the ruling clique in Labour does not see that, and never will

    For what it's worth I genuinely believe Ed gives a fuck over climate, sadly his Party doesn't.

  22. @BicycleBen I hope everyone with any kind of voice, including me, who can at least write a coherent sentence, raises that voice to support Milliband strongly now. This idea seems at last like a pivot we can rally around. In my spare time this week I'll be asking whoever I can think of to get behind Milliband with this.

  24. This skeleton of a trade deal with Gilead is already looking to harm the Environment for profit. Bet Fash Boy Starmer doesn't have a problem with that, fuck the world his children will be inheriting, their wealth will somehow shield them from it he thinks.

    I wonder if it was money, empty promises or naked threats which made Ed Miliband change his mind?

    Oh wait, was it the "sound reasoning of the Trump administration", yeah? /s

    However, his party is going to break his heart when in power.....

  30. @AndrewGuilford

    Or alternatively - when #edMilliband stepped down he could continure to take an active role in #labour politics without everyone attacking his replacement for not being Ed.

    If corbyn had accepted that report he could have had that quiet life. It is his own fault, and that of the #farLeft , furious that reality has overtaken the #farLeftFantasy of a 1950s style socialist UK (totally at odds with how the bulk of the population think)

  32. Got to share these photos of Ed Milliband's reaction to the naked/superglue protest in Westminster.

    Funniest thing I've seen today.
