What if that private jet was bought by a Middle Class person who had scrimped and saved for it. This will not win anyone over to your cause.
🚨 JUST STOP OIL PAINT PRIVATE JETS HOURS AFTER TAYLOR SWIFT'S LANDS 🔥 Jennifer and Cole cut the fence into the private airfield at Stansted where @taylorswift13's jet is parked, demanding an emergency treaty to end fossil fuels by 2030. 💸 Donate — chuffed.org/project/just-sto…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Stansted Airport has confirmed that Taylor Swift’s jet was not in the vicinity. It was not Taylor Swift's jet that was painted orange. dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1…

Oh no, but maybe the jet had a rare species of lichen on it

If you weren’t angry and didn’t raise your voice about this then STFU about Stonehenge

"If you don't vote for us, our policies will keep getting worse".... ok? Sounds like a 'you' problem tbh.
We can thank the Teals and Holmes a Court for this national nuclear discussion. If we'd had our swathe of moderates Liberals in the federal Party room, we'd never have reignited the climate wars. Lasting change in politics requires major party engagement. #auspol #energy #climatechange

Starmer:
The damage done to Stonehenge is outrageous. Just Stop Oil are pathetic. Those responsible must face the full force of the law.

Twitter is owned by a fascist, the publisher of the New York Times is openly anti-Biden, CNN is doing Trump town halls, and the Washington Post and Wall Street Journal are run by Murdoch cronies. Here’s why liberal media bias is a problem.

It's this: the PM can't decide to use his personal life (grew up working class) to bolster his image but then insist that his personal life (evicted his tenant during a rental crisis) isn't part of his image.

Write your local member. I just did. Don't ease up the pressure. This is disgraceful, and they can never be allowed to forget it #auspol
Federal Court rules Environment Minister @tanya_plibersek *does not* have to consider the environmental impacts of emissions when approving new coal & gas projects 🤯 The @AlboMP gov are failing our kids by refusing to fix our broken environmental laws! abc.net.au/news/2024-05-16/l…

Ok, to those that voted this way, you genuinely all make me sick, the lot of you! May you be scorned for eternity. There seems little point being an environmental scientist and caring about data and evidence in this country.

Hard to express my complete disgust at Labor this week. In a way they’re worse than the Coalition - harvesting votes by pretending to be in favour of climate action. They never intended real action, & still have no real emissions reduction plan. Their dishonesty is breathtaking.

If you don’t understand the insane danger of this right here, you’re truly a fool. This is unconscionable. And it’s happening now. Not under Trump. Right now.

Can we...just accept that we suck at this? I want to tell you a story that has made me kinda hopeless about Twitter's ability to affect positive things happening, and it starts with this tweet from Hillary Clinton. xitter.cf/HillaryClinton/status/…
