😲 Shocking
😤 This is a Tory dogwhistle policy intended to mobilise resentment against people who need to claim benefits. . .
😢 By forcing their children into greater poverty
🤔 What has happened to @UKLabour?

‘We must stop climate solutions killing biodiversity’
When I see stories like this I always wonder who has paid for them
The greatest threat to biodiversity is rapid temperature changes that species cannot adapt to
Not bird strikes but wind turbines

Less than 5% of estates have to pay inheritance tax
Tories suggestion of abolishing it only helps these richest people in society
At the expense of the rest of us
Don’t be fooled: inheritance tax is a good thing for the vast majority of people in UK

What is ‘high value’ when it comes to education?
I’ve just spent two days at a sustainable finance conference
Now I’m in Ravenna to see the mosaics
I value both these highly for educational and aesthetic reasons
We’re suffering from electing a government without values

The ‘blue hydrogen’ nonsense from the fossil fuel industry has held us back
Great to see government now clear that it’s heatpumps that will warm our homes in future
But where is the plan to rule them out via local councils? Where it the free installation for low-income homes?
<div class="rsshub-quote">
Hugo Gye: Britain is heading for near-universal heat pumps by 2050.
Speaking to the Parliamentary Press Gallery today, Grant Shapps suggested govt had given up on the idea that hydrogen could replace natural gas as the main way of heating homes.

Looks like the interest-rate hike is pushing the economy into recession, what the Chancellor called ‘a price worth paying’
But we should be focusing on what the economy does, not how big it is
We should be focused on figures on the speed of the sustainability transition

So please can we stop stories of people 'basking' in potentially fatal temperatures?
Right across the media?
And replace them with much, much more about how to prevent runaway climate change?
