Genuinely can’t quite believe that
https://nitter.privacydev.net/labour
is supporting fuel duty freeze which
- has cost c. £90bn since 2010
- ⁠increased emissions by 7%
- ⁠benefits wealthiest most
Has it totally given up on progressive politics?

UK is still at bottom of G7 for private investment so Chancellor’s smugness is singularly misplaced. Investment in green economy is good for jobs & economy as well as cutting emissions. So why didn’t Chancellor invest today to crowd in more private investment?

RT by @CarolineLucas: 💸 The effect of the growing inequality gap and cost of living crisis is clear for everyone to see.

🤯 And yet the Chancellor's #Budget2024 was the exact opposite of what the country needs.

The Govt has granted farmers emergency approval to use banned neonicotinoid pesticides for 4 years running. That's not an emergency it's a routine - and it's a routine that's killing our bees. Where's the plan to end harmful pesticides

UK Government lags far behind other major European countries in green investment and it is ordinary people who are paying the price.

RT by @CarolineLucas: Hand in hand with Rishi Sunak's unfathomable pandering to Big Oil is a hostility to renewables. We have now issued a claim in the High Court challenging the impediments he has created to onshore wind power. https://goodlaw.social/dvx7

RT by @CarolineLucas: So sad to be at the council expecting a vote to abruptly close St Bart’s school in Brighton. The extended timetable proposed by the Head and Greens today would be much wiser. Is Labour effectively not even open to leaving the door open for a new Govt to support schools better?

Let me get this straight: on Friday night the PM’s message was so urgent, he had to speak to the nation from a podium in Downing St. But today, given the opportunity to speak to Parliament, there are no urgent statements at all? Why not

Rishi

And what a broken, divided & dangerous Britain they are building. We do not have to let these morally bankrupt desperate Tories define this country and its values. I explore alternative more progressive stories in my book

RT by @CarolineLucas: Rishi Sunak, who voted to criminalise the right to protest, make it harder to vote, strip the Electoral Commission of powers and limit court abilities to remedy unlawful government actions, says political extremists have no respect for British democracy.
