GOOD NEWS 🎉 Currently our power grid cant handle the amount of renewable energy we produce - wind turbines have to be switched off & the cost is passed to consumers (£806m 2020-21). This is the 1st BIG step to upgrading the grid & electrifying the UK ⚡️ ft.com/content/35fb08…

This year's British LGBT Awards are sponsored by fossil fuel corporations and funders BP, Shell, HSBC, BNP Paribas and Macquarie Capital 🤮 Most nominees appear unaware of who the award sponsors are, so we need to let them know! Tweet them using the tool in the thread below 👇

Absolutely absurd. Seriously, what is going on in Whitehall?! This coming a day after The Labour Party set out their plans to make the U.K. a clean energy superpower… the line in the sand is pretty clear at this point. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politi…

News headlines tonight: devastating extreme weather in Europe and India, followed by reports about how both Labour and Tories are considering rowing back on critical climate policies. It couldn’t feel more dystopian.

Today we begin our JR against the govt for licensing more oil. Win or lose, the writing is on’t wall - whether it’s enormous energy bills, spiking food prices or being evacuated from your European holiday - FF are harming us all. It’s time govt stopped throwing fuel on the fire.

Govt approving Rosebank makes very clear - they dont care about you. You will foot the bill for development (£3.75bn) + will be trapped paying expensive energy bills. Dont let them tell you net zero will cost you money while they're robbing us all for FF.

Listen up The Labour Party ...Voters want a vision for a better future- a greener, fairer future. The policies offered so far are good, (a lot of room for improvement) but any watering down or backsliding will cost you.

Labour’s £28 billion green spending promise – what it is and why it matters via @greenpeaceuk greenpeace.org.uk/news/what-is-l…

Absolutely right from Taj Ali - The only way to fix the ever growing list of crises in this country is to INVEST in our country... Labour's £28bn is their plan to kickstart that - any roll-back would be tragically cynical and a huge dereliction of duty.

In 2024, "centrism" isn't cautious, it's reckless. It creates the conditions under which the radical racist right is surging. Fight the far right by redistributing ill-gotten gains of pandemic profiteers + polluters to pay for Green New Deal-style programs. That's pragmatic.

OEUK says "Time is running out to mitigate damage that has already been done and to avoid further escalation". Indeed. To the planet. Industry lobbying hard against fair tax & workers rights. Govt is right to focus on growth from RE + good jobs for workers bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

As a proud Cumbrian, I grew up spending all my holidays on the farm- lambing, baling, whatever needed doing. Today's protests are a sign that farmers are at breaking point, previous govts have allowed them to be exploited by supermarkets & imports. Labour must turn this around.
