The Trump administration’s targeting of funders and donation platforms is a blatant attempt to isolate civil society and silence dissent. 

We have known for over a decade just how damaging fracking is to our health. But the health impacts of exporting fracked gas have often been overlooked.

Yesterday marked the end of the Conservative’s Annual conference, held in the city of Birmingham. The tradition for any political conference is that the party leader gives a speech at the end of the conference.

Last week, new British Prime Minister outlined plans to frack in the UK. However, experts, scientists, activists, NGO’s and even Truss’s own MPs, believe that fracking will fail in the UK.

They say that politicians often operate in a bubble, removed from the rest of us. They have a blinkered view of reality, distorted by privilege and power.
