    BREAKING: Huge news: The contents of a secret U.K. Govt report on Britain’s ‘critical systems’ and their grave vulnerability have just now been made public by the TIMES, for the very first time. The report was stark in its findings, incl crucially: “Britain’s food

    BBC Radio wanted to have me on today to debate a climate-denier in the context of the drought/heatwave. I said NO. I told them it was a disgrace that they still give climate-deniers airtime at a time like this. I won’t be part of such charades any longer. Please RT if you agree.

    There must be 2500 people at least now in Traf Square. All breaking the law, according to the police here. But the Sun’s out. Our numbers are growing by the minute. We are #ExtinctionRebellion. And the Government has lost the high ground to us - by trying to ban us... Pse RT!

    It's indefensible for the BBC to keep inviting Julia Hartley-Brewer onto #bbcqt: she's a climate-denier whose only credential is as a Murdoch mouthpiece & reliable clickbait. They don’t invite flat-earthers on, so why climate-deniers? The BBC should do much better. >RT,to agree!

    Sunak’s #budget halves air-passenger duty: a tax on flying. Remember: most flying is by the rich; 15% of the population take 70% of flights. A taxbreak for the rich, on the most climate-destructive action there is, flying. Days before #Cop26. They’re spitting in our kids’ faces.

    Look carefully. These are children. The generation who are now reduced to begging their elders for the right to have a life. The right to grow old. Unhinged levels of air travel - the vast majority of it by the rich (15% of people take 70% of flights) - are taking that right away

    Just a handful of young protesters remain at Heathrow Airport this morning. They've been warned by police they could face arrest if they don't move on #ExtinctionRebellion

    So, Cressida Dick thinks Parliament should enact tougher laws to stop future XR protests much faster. How about this for a better idea: Parliament should enact much better laws on ecology and climate so that XR doesn’t HAVE to protest in future!! PLEASE RT
    Police chief says Extinction Rebellion protesters will be arrested 'very, very fast' in future

    AN OPEN LETTER TO SIR DAVID ATTENBOROUGH Dear David; This is a first: the BBC have demoted a wildlife documentary of yours to Iplayer-only. They have done this because they are afraid that the Govt will jump on them if the BBC broadcasts it: because it shows how desperately

    Check this out. No Times today, and no Sun: no Murdoch trash. No Telegraph either; we blockaded them too, for their continuing lies & distortions on climate (and Covid). We are #extinctionrebellion. For one day, let’s #freethetruth. And get the oligarchs to get it: #tellthetruth!
