BP reports second highest profit in decade https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-68206788

I wonder how those £11bn in profits will be distributed?

Shareholder dividends or planet?

Choices choices….

And still loads left over to fund junktanks, buy political influence, pay creative accountants, fund the spread of delay/deny narratives, #sportwash, #greenwash. Whatever it takes, really.

This lovely song goes great with the news that a bunch of #danish influences have accepted all-inclusive trips to/by #Qatar in an attempt to #sportwash the actions of an oppressive and cruel regime. I won't be tooting a lot about politics, but this really rubs me the wrong way. Enjoy this song by #metallica. https://youtu.be/4tdKl-gTpZg
