RT by @CarolineLucas: ‘The government have abdicated responsibility- to Tesco’. Guy Sigh-Watson outside parliament this morning. It’s almost time for our #GetFairAboutFarming petition to be debated.

This Bill is a waste of Parliament’s time - it does nothing to support a just transition, lower bills, achieve energy security, stop the floods or create a safe climate. The Energy Secretary should withdraw the Bill *now*

Govt claims that climate-wrecking Offshore Petroleum Licensing Bill would deliver cleaner energy are simply untrue
We import most of our gas from Norway where gas production is *half* as polluting as in the UK &amp; most emissions come in the burning of the gas, not its production

Govt absurdity just reached new heights (depths?) - its latest argument for extracting more climate-wrecking oil &amp; gas from N Sea is to raise revenue to invest in renewables 🙃. So divert investment from green energy to create more damage, &amp; delay the solutions we need - madness

Labour rightly &amp; noisily are waving a big stick at the water industry over sewage pouring into our rivers &amp; on to our beaches
But they ignore the key point: privatisation has failed. Water is an essential resource &amp; should be in public hands as it is everywhere else in Europe

RT by @CarolineLucas: Q. Are @TheGreenParty losing their unique selling point, now all the parties are 'going green'?
[a common journalists' question]

A. No. Because the other parties see climate as a bolt-on extra they can discard when the going gets tough.

RT by @CarolineLucas: This kind of establishment climate backtrack is exactly why @GNDRising is needed. Young people are working to make sure there are as many MPs as possible who will fight for our futures under any Labour-led govt.

And it’s EXACTLY why we’ll need more Green MPs amongst them! ☀️💚

Right to Buy is a broken policy:
🏘️Billions in housing benefit to private landlords
🏘️2 million council homes sold off
🏘️Housing shortages drive up costs &amp; homelessness
So today I've tabled a new parliamentary motion to scrap it. If you agree pls ask your MP to sign!

Analysis reveals 80% of North Sea oil is exported - another nail in coffin of Govt claim that “maxing out” North Sea oil will improve UK energy security. Real energy security = renewables + efficiency + storage + interconnectors. It’s not rocket science
