The great ⁦@drvox⁩ on the state of the necessary global energy transition (1/x): “First, we’re still moving in the wrong direction. Carbon emissions aren’t falling fast enough. In fact, they aren’t falling at all; they were up 1.7 percent in 2018.” https://t.co/AzhG62eRMS

Breaking News: President Trump ordered another 1,000 troops to the Middle East and vowed again that Iran would not be allowed to develop a nuclear weapon https://t.co/AKtFY93GkH

The confluence of events will test Trump’s weak appetite for military action, his ability to rally allies he has frequently snubbed and his seriousness about actually striking the better deal with the Iranians that he once promised. https://t.co/6MbcJvC7am

Al Jazeera presenter Mehdi Hasan on Gulf tanker attacks:

“Even if it turns out Iran was behind these attacks – just goes to show pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal was the disaster a lot of us said it would be when Donald Trump did it”#PoliticsLivehttps://t.co/um7gGIYmoA pic.twitter.com/QHfjbfqISs

Donald Trump doesn’t normally talk to journalists who won’t indulge his cult of personality. His big ABC interview with George Stephanopoulos showed why. https://t.co/bzfUAKXXWF

The risk aversion of @BorisJohnson is something to behold. Every other Tory candidate is taking questions from newspapers, TV and radio in a 4th estate or “lobby” hustings. The only one who has refused such scrutiny is the one who still makes a living writing for @Telegraph.

As the odds show – the public’s view is cementing.@BorisJohnson vs @RoryStewartUK would produce a truly riveting contest that would help improve our brand & would be followed not just by the Party faithful but a country we must urgently re-engage with. pic.twitter.com/RJUV32R8zR

Despair at the charlatan @BorisJohnson ever being PM fuels the unlikely rise of @RoryStewartUK as a credible Tory Leadership contender. But don’t be fooled – he is as Tory establishment as they come, wants to deliver #Brexit & hates modern , outward looking Scotish democracy.
