New York Times: There’s been an increasing trend toward authoritarianism in the
past year in particular. So the question the United Kingdom has right now is, do we fall to the increasingly worrying ways that Trump has fallen? Social media has definitely not been entirely a force for good, A lot of Americans watching your rise have made an intuitive connection to
Zohran Mamdani’s spectacular arrival here in New York.
I think the climate crisis should be everyone’s No. 1 priority, but you can’t
tackle the climate crisis without tackling the affordability crisis and the
inequality crisis. It’s the same polluters who are destroying our environment
who are extracting wealth from our economy to line their own pockets.
One obvious connection is dirty air or toxic air — far too often it exists in
places that are working-class communities, full of racial minorities. Another
example is that in Britain, we have some of the leakiest homes in Europe —
they’re energy inefficient. And so if we insulated everyone who needed it, it
would reduce people’s bills, which is literally addressing the cost-of-living
crisis while reducing emissions in a climate crisis.
