We are doing it wrong.

If you build safe, segregated cycling infrastructure, you’ll never have to ‘encourage’ people to cycle again with pointless ‘national cycling week’ campaigns that don’t address the main cause of not cycling - the absence of safe, segregated cycling infrastructure.

Good. Now do the rest of central London.

Nice! Now do Soho!

So nice to see young men discovering the satisfaction of community volunteering

Arguments I never want to hear from law-makers again *That thing you're concerned about may never happen *There will be v few cases *It's already law in X "It's 'international best practice' *Only the Right/Christians/etc make your points Sound policy stands on its own merits

The gov has two choices on electricity market reform. 1️⃣ Take the only option on the table that cuts bills. Face down generator lobby. Press go on zonal, tell NESO to deliver it by H2 2028. 2️⃣ Tell people to take higher bills on the chin as climbing waste raises bills.

The latest casualty of Britain’s crippling system of national energy pricing

At second reading, MPs were told their concerns could be sorted at committee stage. At committee, they were told that problems could be fixed at report stage. And now, they are being told that the Lords can fix the bill. The bill is unfit for purpose. Vote it down.

My controversial opinion today is that we should stop knowingly killing 30,000 people annually and sabotaging our economy to the tune of £27bn per year. And that we should listen to doctors when they tell us this. theguardian.com/environment/20…

"Sorted out in the Lords" is such a comforting myth. A bill this bad cannot be fixed with any amount of tinkering, the fundamental structure is not suitable. MPs need to show leadership and own this decision, not kick the can down the road.

Switching to more granular 'locational marginal pricing' is currently being discussed as part of plans to reform the UK electricity market. But what is it? And why do the economists and independent voices like it?

Simple, because it allows more local decisions to be made and gives more efficient outcomes (cheaper costs). RAP's power system blueprint has this explainer on what LMP is and why people might want to support it blueprint.raponline.org/locational-mar…

We're facing wholesale deindustrialisation in this country. Subsiding electricity prices should be the very last resort. Cutting them at source should be the first. Building more generating capacity and ending Britain's one-size-fits-all pricing system is how to do it.

It’s literally the difference between designing a place around cars or not.

I’m old enough to remember when people didn’t much like energy company bosses 👀 A freshly shorn Greg Jackson meets his fans at Octofest in Battersea Park

Maxim Timchennko of DTEK: the Russians need one missile to knock out a coal plant for 250,000 people, but they need 50 missiles to knock out a wind farm of the same capacity

There’s 3,000 people at the Octopus Energy Energy Tech Summit today in London. Including a lot of celeb speakers like Yuval Noah Harari. Ceo Greg Jackson just announced a £299 a month BYD car, which INCLUDES all your driving.
