XR stood with allies in resistance in the face of economic turmoil, climate catastrophe & attacks on human rights.
In Manchester, a peaceful march, pre-liaised with the Police, was disrupted by far-right agitators shouting & filming. Some were pushed, shoved & threatened.

Iceland did something after the 2008–09 crash that the US, UK and EU pretend is impossible as Trump and his vile ilk ride rough shod over our democracies.
It confronted and punished its corrupt bankers and failed politicians.
And rebuilt a fairer society from the rubble. 🧵

Levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere soared by a record amount in 2024.
We’ve hit another high.
Storm Amy hit harder than expected, 42,000 homes had no power.
So why are we still stepping away from climate commitments?
When those in power fail to act, we must stand and be counted.

💚As an individual we hold so much power.
As a collective we are even stronger.
Think about who benefits from keeping us isolated and silent.
In times of atrocity, destruction and genocide, the courage to act to disrupt, to resist, to disobey is a right and moral responsibility to many.

There was almost one discharge into our waterways every 30 seconds in 2024.
Thousands of people fell sick from contaminated water while our biodiversity is depleted.
💙Our waterways are the arteries and veins of the earth.
If we pollute those waterways, life will die.
