RT @bobbyllew: This is such an important debate, it makes SO MUCH sense and it’s the CHEAPEST way to ensure more people can benefit from the massive advantages and savings this technology brings.

Mandatory solar panels on all suitable new homes are a win-win: lower carbon emissions, improved energy security, 1000s of new high-skilled jobs, and no cost to the taxpayer. That’s what a rooftop revolution looks like - and that's what our Govt must deliver.

🚨THIS MORNING🚨

At 11am, I’m leading a debate in Parliament urging the Government to make solar panels mandatory on all suitable new homes.

It’s time for a real rooftop revolution ☀️

Great to meet with @ACORN_Brighton today to show support for #RentersDemandAction campaign @RentersReformCo
People who rent need safe, affordable homes. That means

✅End no-fault evictions
✅Stable long-term tenancies as standard
✅ Introduce rent caps to stop spiralling rent
RT @ACORNunion: Today hundreds of ACORN members from across the country went to Parliament with other @RentersReformCo members to demand rental reform.

Solidarity with brave mothers on hunger strike this week. UK food poverty is among worst in Europe & #climateemergency risks making global food insecurity worse. No child should go hungry & no mother should have to skip meals to feed children - Govt must address their demands 👇

Just a reminder as this dossier emerges - taxpayers are forking out for a £220K+ contract for Boris Johnson’s personal legal fees, as he attacks & undermines a cross-party Parliament Committee Inquiry carrying out the democratic will of a House of Commons he is not fit to be in.

RT @sianberry: Today we see a clear excoriation of specialist police teams that descend on communities causing huge harm, and how they helped foster a toxic culture. These issues were clear well before Casey was commissioned and 2 years on, her conclusions must mean a TOTAL reset of the Met.

10 years ago, I led a debate in Parliament on 10th anniversary of #Iraq war. I argued it was deeply flawed then & it remains even more so today. Intelligence was misused, experts’ concerns suppressed, the political & legal situation misrepresented. Lessons must still be learned

Great thread - essential reading for next few weeks #ClimateEmergency
RT @DrSimEvans: THREAD

UK govt has just days to update its net-zero strategy, which was ruled unlawful by the high court last yr

After this week's #Budget2023 failed to meaningfully move things forward, where do things stand?

Utterly shameful environmental vandalism from Tory-run Plymouth Council. There must be an urgent independent inquiry 👇

RT @alfie_stirling: NEW analysis from @NEF casts light on two parts of the budget the Chancellor didn't want to talk about.

First, the cost of living crisis is *still* getting worse (for most people).

Chart below shows the gap between rising incomes & rising cost of essentials (MIS), Apr22-Apr24.

Chancellor could have announced a wealth tax on richest 1%, raising up to £70bn - funding cheaper public transport, more home insulation & public sector pay rises for millions. He didn't - anything to do with this being a Govt run by millionaires, for millionaires? #Budget2023

RT @ThisWinterUK: The Chancellor @Jeremy_Hunt has announced the Energy Price Guarantee will stay at £2,500 for an average home.

He forgot to mention that houses will actually be paying £67 more per month on #EnergyBills because the Energy Bills Support Scheme is ending.
