Reinstating winter fuel allowance is vital, but Farage’s plan to pay for it by cutting Net Zero budget is madness - locking us into *higher* energy bills by increasing reliance on costly gas imports, rather than supporting cheaper green energy to get bills down for all of us 🙄

Kemi Badenoch says that if we reinstate universal winter fuel allowance, we don’t have a system to claw it back from the very wealthiest. Err, we do. It’s called more progressive taxation #bbclaurak

We're building a world of waste. The Bantar Gebang landfill outside of Jakarta alone stretches across 200 football fields. It's time to move beyond linear systems to ones that are truly circular in nature: buff.ly/p7Y0ANm #Useless #wasteless #buyless #gocircular

Rich people want to distract you into hating foreigners; that's what Farage and Reform are all about. Big money herding the uneducated poor into the abattoir, lambs to the slaughterhouse..

Now Reform say they want to scrap the two-child benefit cap… They could have voted for that in July, so why didn’t they? Policy for them is a matter of convenience not conviction. Don’t be fooled by Reform. They’ll say almost anything - if they think you want to hear it.
