Political donations and lobbying are the poison in the well of democracy.
Money matters more than votes. The electorate can see this clearly.
#Burnham ‘s refusal to do anything about it will cost him dear at the ballot box because every decision he subsequently takes we know is influenced by who has paid the piper. He will play their tunes.
It’s already clear the #techbros and #bigoil are in his ear over #AI and #NorthSea drilling.

Tag 6: Esbjerg – Skjern
92km, 312hmDie Deutschen fliehen aus Dänemark. Ein langer Treck von Campingmobilen, Vans und Autos mit deutschen Kennzeichen kommt uns heute auf unserem Weg zur Küste entgegen. Da wir von politischen Verwicklungen nichts mitbekommen haben, kann es sich nur um Wetterflüchtige handeln, um Camper, die lieber nach Hause fahren als das Wochenende im feuchten Zelt oder Wohnwagen zu verbringen. Wir verstehen […]

🇫🇷 Un voilier quitte le port d'Oostende, la structure jaune à droite en second plan est une station d'observation hydrographique de la mer. Dans le fond à l'horizon, on peut apercevoir un porte-containers et le parc éolien en construction.
Passez une bonne journée! 👋
🇬🇧 A sailboat leaves the port of Oostende, the yellow structure on the right is an hydrographic sea observation station. In the background on the horizon, we can see a container ship and the wind farm under construction.
Have a nice day! 👋

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/aug/20/ministers-are-in-denial-about-the-scale-of-the-crises-we-face. This #letter writer, Dr Amy McDonnell, wants the #Government to start getting its act together on #climate #adaptation - which is all well & good, & doubtless necessary, but that same Government needs to act with far greater #urgency on climate #mitigation, too - & there must be absolutely NO more talk about further #drilling for #oil & #gas in the #NorthSea!

A climate strike is needed now. If you demonstrate you'll get arrested, because the UK is a recovering democracy, but mass staying home is an option.
Burnham and UKLabour REALLY want to get reelected.
Put green signs on all labour homes.
Byebye Labour Goodbye.
I had such hope for Andy.

“Big Oil Employees Wrote Paper Behind Kemi Badenoch’s North Sea Fantasy”
by Nafeez Ahmed in The Byline Times on Substack
@uk_politics
@thegreenparty
@ZackPolanski“The [UK] Conservative [Party] leader and her media supporters used a new study as evidence to support her plan to increase drilling in the North Sea, without declaring who was really behind it”

Moray schoolgirl's message in a bottle gets a reply from Norway 31 years later.
The primary pupil from Moray in the north east of Scotland sent out her message in 1994 and it finally turned up across the North Sea in Norway.

And how much economic damage is from climate change and pollution from #FossilFuels? #BigOil is the real criminal here!
#ClimateProtesters are taking action against Big Oil. UK courts are handing them prison terms akin to rapists and thieves
By Kara Fox, CNN
September 14, 2024London CNN — "As #RightWing rioters attacked communities with #racist violence across parts of the UK last month, 22-year-old #ClimateActivist #CressieGethin sat in a prison cell.
"Her crime? Organizing a disruptive protest against new government-granted licenses to drill for oil — a planet-heating #FossilFuel — in the #NorthSea.
"In late July, a London court found #Gethin and four other members of the #JustStopOil activist group guilty of 'conspiring intentionally to cause a #PublicNuisance,' after recruiting protesters to climb structures along the M25 — a major ring road around London — bringing traffic to a standstill in parts over four days in November 2022.
"Prosecutors alleged that the protests, organized over a #ZoomCall, disrupted more than 700,000 drivers, caused economic damage of over £760,000 ($980,000) and racked up £1 million ($1.3m) in policing costs.
"Now Gethin and three others — Louise Lancaster, #DanielShaw and #LuciaWhittakerDeAbreu, who planned the disruption on the call — are serving four-year jail terms, while Just Stop Oil co-founder #RogerHallam was given five years. All are appealing.
"The sentences are believed to be the longest in the UK’s history for #nonviolent protest and were delivered under two new controversial laws that supercharged #policing powers to crack down on disruptive protests, even when they are peaceful.
"They place the act of planning a 'public nuisance' event, which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison, on a similar footing as #ViolentCrimes like robbery, for which punishments range from community service to 12 years’ jail, or rape, which is four to 19 years.
"The judge — who in court referred to the activists as '#extremists' — justified the long jail terms because all five activists had previously been convicted of one or more offenses in relation to direct action protest. Each were on bail for another set of proceedings when the Zoom call took place. He also noted people missed important doctor’s visits and funerals because of the protest.
"But activists like Gethin say their demonstrations are proportionate to the problem at hand — a rapidly warming world that threatens to transform life as we know it, through deadly #ExtremeWeather events and by pushing #ecosystems to their brinks. They are now battling the bolstered powers of the #police and courts to get their point across.
“'A very harsh sentence like this doesn’t make sense morally or legally — but it does make sense politically,' Gethin told CNN in a handwritten letter from HMP Bronzefield, a women’s prison just south of London’s Heathrow Airport.
"The laws have drawn criticism from the UN’s special rapporteur on #EnvironmentalDefenders, #MichaelForst, who said not only do they criminalize peaceful protest, but they are being enforced in 'punitive and repressive' ways."
