👀 A satellite study led by the University of Reading finds heat loss from the north Atlantic has fallen 18 per cent in 40 years.
It's among the strongest signs yet that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, the ocean current system that carries heat north to Europe, is slowing. The study is still in peer review.

Labour's House Jock MPs are pushing the 'Scotland needs nuclear reactors' message relentlessly. BBC Scotland is slowly coming on board. What neither will admit is that new nuclear reactors will push energy bills higher. Scotland of course doesn't need new nuclear plants.

The GB Energy con was the cruellest trick played on Scottish voters. Labour promised lower energy bills and 53,000 new Scottish jobs. We got higher bills and no jobs. All over BBC Scotland during the 2024 general election. B4stards.

Today I was denied entry into the West Bank, alongside other parliamentary colleagues from across Europe as part of a @ProgIntl delegation.
We were held for 8 hours, interrogated and ultimately prevented from crossing the border.
I came to stand alongside Palestinians being attacked for harvesting olives on their own land. Instead, we were turned away, with no reason given.
More than ever, Palestinians are being subject to terror and violence by the IDF and illegal settlers. Increased blockades, demolitions and unthinkable violence have become the norm for Palestinians in the West Bank.
It is more important now than ever that we bear witness and show our solidarity.
But we were prevented from doing so.
I will continue to do everything I can to apply pressure on the Netanyahu government, and those responsible for the persecution and genocide of the Palestinian people.

Reform plan to bring back imperial measurements to help boost US trade, not realising that US imperial measurements are different from UK ones.
So dense a black hole is empty space by comparison.

It’s amazing that MAGA labels every election result is doesn’t like as “stolen” or an example of “fraud “, but when Putin “wins” almost 90% of the vote in his crooked elections, they don’t make a peep.

"Nobody is threatening our place in the Single Market..."
This was the promise by the leaders of the Brexit "Leave" campaign (including Farage) before the Referendum in 2016.

Indeed - in 2013 Farage enthused "I know many fantastic Bulgarians", naming Slavi Binev as one of these. As well as being a pro-Russian far-right politician, Binev was linked to a criminal group that ran several entertainment venues in Sofia (+ prostitution & drugs).

The rewriting of 2016 needs challenging.
❌ The referendum ballot did NOT ask: “Should Britain end freedom of movement?”
It asked whether Britain should remain in or leave the EU.
Nothing about leaving the Single Market.
Nothing about the customs union.
Nothing about ending free movement.
And during the referendum prominent Brexit campaigners openly cited Norway and Switzerland as models for Britain outside the EU.
🇳🇴 Norway is in the Single Market and accepts free movement.
The Leave coalition contained several completely different versions of Brexit. The public was never asked to choose between them.
So it is simply not accurate to retrospectively turn 17.4 million Leave votes into 17.4 million votes specifically against free movement.
That interpretation came afterwards.
And if Britain is now deciding what relationship it wants with Europe, voters are perfectly entitled to decide again with the actual choices made explicit.
