Govt is breaking climate promises - licensing new oil & gas in

& using creative accounting to meet climate finance goals. At
https://nitter.cz/search?q=%23COP28
next week,
https://nitter.cz/search?q=%23LossAndDamage
promise to climate-vulnerable nations can't be broken.

Hunt's

unravelling within 24 hours - now we learn energy price cap is going up, with another rise in bills for so many already struggling to pay. Yet not a *single* mention of insulation or energy efficiency in his speech. Unforgivable.

My reaction to smug & short-term
https://nitter.cz/search?q=%23AutumnStatement
from Chancellor seemingly on different planet to rest of us. Cost of living crisis continues, highest inflation in G7. It was a missed opportunity to invest in public services slashed by 13 years of Tory cuts.

Sizewell C is a massively costly & agonisingly slow nuclear white elephant. It makes no sense to prioritise it over abundant & affordable renewables. Ahead of today’s

Relieved to hear this morning of deal to pause fighting in Gaza & release of some hostages. But it can’t stop there - it needs to pave way to release of *all* hostages, & a full ceasefire to end killings & ensure aid reaches all who need it

In the UK we *massively* undertax wealth compared to income. In past 10 years income has been taxed at average of 32%, compared to just 4% for wealth. Time for ultra-rich to start paying more - to fund public services and not let them crumble.

We're heading towards nearly 3C of catastrophic temperature rises. In just 1 year, Sunak has greenlit a new coal mine, the biggest undeveloped oil field in North Sea, & 100+ new oil & gas licences. His Govt is adding fuel to the flames of this emergency.

Carbon intensive companies are polluting the planet & using glitzy ads to portray themselves as paragons of sustainability. My Digital Markets Bill amendments would deliver on PM's promise to tackle greenwashing, & clamp down on high-carbon ads damaging our precious environment👇

Not only are we off-track for keeping global temp rise below 1.5C. As it stands we're on track for *nearly 3C*. Memo to Sunak: the only "proportionate" climate action now is to stop all new fossil fuels, upscale renewables & insulate the nation

Half of world's marine species risk extinction by 2100. Govt trampling over Marine Protected Areas with reckless drilling won’t cut bills or help energy security – but it will line the pockets of mega-rich fossil fuel giants & damage precious marine life.
