The richest 10% of US households responsible for 40% of the country’s emissions, a new study reveals.

@eniko Hadn't heard that, but it describes them perfectly. Greedy, selfish @SuperEmitters
A crook in No10, had a Green Card for the USA when a Minister, fined for partying whilst he told the House & the Country he didn't, not to mention the Non Dom wife who owns almost a £Billion in shares in INFOSYS that still trades with Russia.... tells us all Brexit is delivering!!!

They should be free.
We can afford to do that.

Except the Treasury has done no such analysis.

Dowden misled Parliament at PMQs.

the idea of being visited by aliens lost its appeal when i realized they’d likely just be some other planet’s asshole billionaires
