Good report by Roger Harrabin on The World at One on carbon-free steel being made in SWE by Vattenfall Group. This is of course what the UK shld be doing, not a Cumbrian coalmine.Roger's leaving the BBC tomorrow. Good luck and thanks Roger.

Cutting the World Service is madness at a time when Britain needs all the soft power it can muster. Why is this not a bigger story? ⁦Nick Robinson⁩ ⁦Andrew Griffith MP⁩ ⁦Channel 4 News⁩ theguardian.com/media/2022/sep…

Sizewell C Nuclear power plant will cost £20bn and produce 3,260MW of Nuclear power in 2035 or later. 163 20MW Wind Turbines would produce the same power and cost £3.26bn. And they could be finished by 2026. 9 years sooner, less than 1/6th of the cost.

Wholesale Gas has just crashed to a new low. Just 150p per therm compared to 702p in August. An energy boss who’s company made £20 billion profit last year today says high energy bills are here to stay. We must fight back. This is a rip off.

No words.

Govt has taken morally obscene decision to allow #Rosebank approval when Parliament is in recess to avoid scrutiny. Democracy is being undermined & our chance of a liveable future is under attack. Time to act. I'll be outside Department for Energy Security and Net Zero HQ at noon on Saturday. Will you join me?

Keir Starmer could say right now that if he were to become PM, he would move heaven & earth to stop climate-wrecking #Rosebank oil field from going ahead. He has it within his power to help stop this climate crime - it's utterly irresponsible for him not to use it. #StopRosebank

Disappointing to see the Prime Minister misleading people on 20mph, whether intentionally or inadvertently. This isn’t a blanket restriction. Speed limits on a large number of Welsh roads are unchanged, with journey times taking up to a minute longer. This will save lives.

Whatever next….
