It's Friday afternoon, time for some (timely) gallows humour, completely unconnected to the Labour Party's local and national uselessness on #climate change action (as opposed to shiny promises).

@hulmeroberts @evefrancisholt We know the rules. The motion is on a single issue and lays out an industrial strategy that mobilises the economy, across sectors, to stave off further climate catastrophe.

It is clear that Labour Party bureaucrats do not understand the climate crisis that we face.

This has been an ongoing problem with #Manchester City Council for over 10 yrs. Soaring rhetoric, but then cllrs obsess over small issues, unable/unwilling to see big picture. I guess it is safer NOT to see it. But then they vote for CE motions and expect praise...

Labour is turning its back on the climate crisis. #ClimateCrisis #ClimateEmergency #savehoughend @ryebankfields @TreesNotCars @blocktheblock1 @MikeHalley @ClimateEmergMcr @mcr_climate https://twitter.com/tribunemagazine/status/1438622549437472772

After a year of record heatwaves, wildfires and floods, Labour's refusal to even debate the Green New Deal policies needed to respond to the climate crisis is a scandal – and damning of Keir Starmer's leadership. https://tribunemag.co.uk/2021/09/labour-is-turning-its-back-on-the-climate-crisis
