Who else is just learning this week that @AlbaParty is pronounced 'Aluba'?
I love that Tesco's app thanks the unit price of these bagels is 6p, when the total price is £1.35. Clearly the price is per seed/grain, not per bagel.
How is the TOP story on BBC World at One about a princess playing with potatoshop? We know this isn't the biggest thing happening right now. I would be tempted to say it isn't news, but would compromise on putting it in as 'the bit at the end', cos it's kinda fun.
I feel like I am losing my mind. Israel clearly stated its intent to stop food, water and electricity from entering Gaza on Oct 8. How are news outlets putting "dies of starvation" in quotes in early March? I mean this is not a fucking mystery. Cause, meet consequence.
Why would the Conservatives want local authorities to remain close to bankruptcy? Well, 1. It forces them to sell off (privatise) land and buildings. 2. It leaves them without the legal funds and administrative capacity to fight predatory developers and other favoured interests.
Wow, this is going to be such a handy feature!
So called "tactical voting" cannot include a vote for Labour. If you recognise the system isn't working - rewarding the party who are helping keep the unfairness isn't tactical. Keir Starmer wants to keep first past the post - which ensures future Tory governments. 1/3

Disgusting, and I wish it was surprising.

Why is there no way to contact #Evri if you have problems as a sender? The drop off machine wouldn't accept my parcel, but when I try to get help, I am told "the parcel is still with the sender", with no further options. I know it's with the sender - I'm trying to fix that!
And this remarkable young woman, just 19, who survived the massacre at Kibbutz Be’eri “I know what I want. I want a just peace…We cannot go on like this. We cannot.” Translation by @lisang in next tweet

Parliament must be recalled and should sit tomorrow- Sunak’s blatant and cowardly sidelining of Parliament cannot be allowed to stand
An unelected PM, with no mandate, overseeing a massive policy u-turn at odds with his party’s own manifesto which won an 80 seat majority. What @RishiSunak is doing today completely undermines the idea of democracy & popular sovereignty in this country. He can’t go soon enough.
Anybody listening to @BBCr4today hear @AdamHollowayMP talk about focusing our money to help the needy many rather than the privileged few? Does that apply at home as well?
We are delighted to announce that Carla Denyer, Co-Leader of the Green Party & Bristol City councillor will be visiting North Devon on Thur 13th July & holding a public meeting at Barnstaple Library at 7pm that evening (Room 3B) All welcome #NorthDevon #Barnstaple #GreenParty

@JACBailey1 So you're saying black people are a threat to white people like men (statistically) are to women? How to miss the original point AND be racist AND be misogynistic in one tweet. Sir, you have some work to do.
@MindyBeeArt I find that a lot though. Men rarely talk about “women”. They’re always girls or chicks etc. I suppose it’s another way of dominating and seeking control?
@russjosephs Yeah because even if I was straight, the “only” reason I’d treat a woman as an equal person is because I’m trying to seduce her? How do guys become this???

@kareem_carr IQ tests measure one thing above all else - how good an individual is at filling in IQ tests.
The average IQ for Nigeria is 67.8 which is nuts. This would imply millions of Nigerians are in the 50 and below range and are severely mentally disabled. This is an insane thing to claim but makes more sense when you find out one of authors is a known white supremacist.
@RobbieNDevon Yes. Even though our research shows that all models of air travel taxes would be distributionally progressive, because air travel is so skewed towards the rich.
To date, that is what has happened: planes have become a lot more fuel efficient over time. But air travel activity has increased so much that, in the end, emissions from passenger aviation have exploded.
The question is not really: "How do we stop people who currently fly from flying?" but rather: "How do we prevent air travel from increasing to such an extent that it offsets any progress we will make on low-carbon technology"?
5⃣ No one is really suggesting "banning" flights, so that is an (alas all too frequent) strawman. What people are suggesting is, for example, to tax aviation fuel (currently exempt) at the same rate at which we tax car fuel & rail electricity. Or stop expanding airports.
3⃣ For long-haul flights, which account for around half of aviation emissions, typically neither car nor rail are an alternative. So here the question is how frequently we should travel over such distances at all.
Disagree. 1⃣ Whether flying has more or less climate impact on a pkm basis than driving depends a lot on the no. of car passengers, and on whether non-CO2 effects of air travel are included. 2⃣ Cars are not the only alternative to flights, there is rail.
The fact that short and long haul flights are more efficient than a normal gas car is quite remarkable. It’s for this, and many other reasons, that I really don’t think banning or restricting flights to combat climate change is a good idea at all.
