Who thinks today would be a great day to open the government, swear in Adelita Grijalva, and release the Epstein files?

The UK must prepare for a 2C rise in global temperatures by 2050, according to new analysis from the Climate Change Committee (CCC), commissioned by the government.
The report forecasts that risks from heatwaves, droughts, and wildfires could double over the next 25 years, with some peak river flows increasing by as much as 40%.

Reform vow to fight 'crazy Miliband over solar farm

Miliband has approved plans for Britain's biggest solar farm, prompting Reform UK to say it would fight to reverse the decision.
The Tillbridge Solar project, in Lin-colnshire, would cover an area equivalent to about 2,000 football pitches.
Farage's party said the scheme would destroy valuable agricultural land, but Labour said it was needed to meet green energy targets and reduce dependency on energy from abroad.
Tillbridge Solar is the tenth large solar project Miliband has approved since taking office. Half of them are in Lin-colnshire, prompting opposition from local Reform and Conservative MPs.
Tillbridge Solar aims to generate electricity for 300,000 homes and the scheme would cover about 1,400 hectares of mainly agricultural land
Michael Shanks, the energy minister, said: "Solar is one of the cheapest and quickest power sources we can build. It is crucial in our mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower, giving us energy security, good jobs and growth across the country."

A report by the Planning Inspectorate said that the project would lead to the loss of about 1,200 hectares of farm-land, including 11l hectares of the highest grade land, and acknowledged the cumulative impact of other solar arrays in Lincolnshire. However, it concluded that this would not be nationally "significant" , with solar taking over less
than 1% of UK farmland.
It added that the biodiversity would benefit from the end of intensive farming on the land and that crop planting
"could be restored should it be needed in the future" for food security.
In a blunt warning to companies behind the schemes, Richard Tice, Reform UK's deputy leader and the MP for nearby Boston & Skegness, said: "We will do all we can to stop investors and developers; nothing is off the table."

The Pentagon’s new press policy bars journalists from reporting anything that hasn’t been approved by the Trump regime.

The NYT, Washington Post, Atlantic, and NPR are refusing to sign the agreement.

Kudos to the media outlets standing up to this blatant authoritarianism.
