Minister's bluster couldn't disguise Govt hinting at a shift in language with huge implications for
nitter.cz/search?q=%23COP28
. Difference between fossil fuel phaseout & phasedown is not trivial; it could determine climate breakdown or liveable future. What is Govt position?

More oil & gas won't "benefit families" as PM claims - they'll line pockets of mega-rich fossil fuel giants. We're in an energy affordability crisis, not an energy supply crisis. A nationwide street-by-street mass insulation programme *would* get bills down - & cut emissions too.

I've signed
nitter.cz/search?q=%23KingsSpe
amendment calling for immediate ceasefire - to move towards political solution, end suffering, protect civilians, & ensure food, water, medicine & fuel reaches all who need it. I hope this comes to a Commons vote next week - I'd urge MPs to vote for it 👇

When
nitter.cz/search?q=%23KingsSpe
should have legislated for a fossil fuel phaseout, we saw more oil & gas licences. When we needed proper renters' reform, a no fault evictions ban was delayed. When we needed clean air & extended

Legislating for annual oil & gas licensing rounds is a gimmick - they're happening almost annually already. This Bill does set new climate compatibility tests - except they're set so low, it's impossible not to meet them. So what on earth is the point of this Bill - & this Govt?

Pleased to be co-proposing this motion, calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza & Israel. The killings will continue and the suffering will not stop unless we find a political rather than a military solution to this conflict. I'm urging MPs to sign 👇

Staggered by Minister's smug & complacent responses to my Qs
nitter.cz/CommonsEAC
. Govt's climate policies are leaving my constituents in cold & damp homes, trashing our climate leadership & expanding fossil fuels when we need rapid phaseout. Moments like this remind me how we got here 👇

Aid agencies like
nitter.cz/Oxfam
,
nitter.cz/savechildrenuk
&
nitter.cz/christianaid
are clear that a humanitarian pause in Gaza isn't enough - to mend critical infrastructure like roads & hospitals, we need *immediate ceasefire*. If you're meeting these groups, Minister, why aren't you listening to them?

Sunak won't be straight with British public. New oil & gas won't deliver energy security - it's sold on global markets to highest bidder. It won't cut energy bills - as his own Minister admitted yesterday. When will he stop weaponising climate for his culture wars?

The mind boggles at the words King Charles was forced to read out in
nitter.cz/search?q=%23KingsSpe
today. "This Bill will support the future licensing of new oil & gas fields, helping the country to transition to net zero by 2050" - what?? Time to end this governing by gimmick once & for all.

Sunak has tried his best to torch the UK's climate agenda & drag us into a toxic culture war. Here are 5 Bills he *should* announce in
nitter.cz/search?q=%23KingsSpe
today - to reduce cost of living, tackle

, transform our economy & restore nature. Our country & planet can’t wait.

RT by @CarolineLucas: - Rishi Sunak has set two “environmental tests” which need to be met every year before there can be annual drilling licensing rounds for the North Sea

- but the bar is set so low that it’s almost impossible not to clear

This Govt is now violating international law over poverty levels in the UK. Tories have presided over 13 years of austerity cuts, slashed benefits, record food bank users, mass homelessness & cold damp homes. This is a Govt led by the rich, for the rich.

This 'Government by gimmick' approach is reckless in the extreme. New oil & gas licences won't improve energy security or cut energy bills, but they will wreck our climate & lead to Govt handing over billions in tax breaks to mega-rich fossil fuel giants.

Our planet can’t afford an unsuccessful

. Sunak's net zero rollbacks have trashed the UK's climate leadership – we need him to secure a rapid & fair fossil fuel phaseout and new loss & damage finance.

RT by @CarolineLucas: At this time, we would like to urge people to think about others.

We understand that there is anger & a sense that what is happening in the Middle East is inflaming tensions.

But British Muslim & British Jews, like anyone else, do not deserve hate or being targeted. No excuses.
