I'm opening a debate in the Commons shortly demanding an end to the fossil fuel industry's influence on our politics. I'm calling for
- a firewall between the industry & policy making
- no fossil fuel money in politics
- no more public subsidies for fossil fuels

No more dirty money shaping policy, no more subsidies & an end to cosy links with Ministers. Here's how👇

Very disappointing that PM refuses to condemn extreme & violent language from Netanyahu & ministers which is fuelling crisis in the region
And, whatever PM says, it's not just Houthis who are linking what's happening in the Red Sea to Gaza - so are many neighbouring countries
