That is some 'day after' planning...
Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack.
"The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."

All the pundits said Manchester United would do well this year. And they were right because they can now take Grimsby to penalties, so they’re getting better.

LET PEOPLE ENJOY GOOD THINGS THAT HAPPEN TO THEM.
The world is perpetually on the brink of WW3, the cost of living is sky high, the people in charge of the country couldn’t organise a piss up in a brewery and we’ll all be dead one day. They’ve won 5-0 to stay top, let them live.

Further thoughts on Sunak
Post-Brexit U.K. can’t compete with US, EU or China for clean industries based on market size or subsidies
The UK’s super power was 20 years of bipartisan support for climate action.
Sunak has destroyed this & done a Lis Truss on the clean economy

The recently released GSCC certification standard faces strong criticism for its failure to accurately capture the social & environmental impacts of #steelproduction while also avoiding any meaningful mechanisms to lower the industry's #emissions.
🧵Action Alert Thread :Civil groups highlight trouble in industry. The Global Steel Climate Council's "standard" for low-emissions steel, touted as a step towards sustainability, is facing strong criticism.

Not to be alarmist but…this is what’s called a six-sigma event, now unfolding in Antarctica.
Otherwise known as a once-in-7.5-million-year event.
Hang onto your hats.

Your regular reminder that earth systems are far more volatile than humans have ever experienced during the period of agriculture based civilisation
That’s why none of our myths, histories or institutions have prepared us for the rate of change which is already happening

It dawned on me this morning, as I scrolled, that not everyone's time line may be as specific as mine is. Climate aware people will not be surprised at this🧵but those who have been ignoring it, denying it, or thinking it won't happen here, or soon.
It is.
