RT by @PaulBrannenNE: I’ve been on these trains and they were a revelation! Amazing - fast, so comfortable, great amenities (even the food was superb) and at a ticket price Britons can only dream of. Infuriates me, and should infuriate you, that UK has given up on all this. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/oct/11/spains-high-speed-trains-arent-just-efficient-they-have-transformed-peoples-lives?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

RT by @PaulBrannenNE: 🌳🐑 Trees offer lots of benefits to our woolly friends, provide shelter and shade, keep sheep comfortable and stress-free, 50% reduction in lamb mortality. Sheep love nibbling on leaves and twigs, and tree fodder is a great source of nutrition. 🌳💚 #Agroforestry #SheepFarming.

We will still meet our international commitments and hit Net Zero by 2050.

FACTCHECK
Rishi Sunak claims he's saving families from "unacceptable costs" but he's actually going to cost renters £2bn/yr (by keeping their homes draughty) &amp; drivers £6bn (bc EVs will be cheaper upfront by 2030 anyway)

Great to have the support of @PaulBrannenNE - a fantastic former MEP for the North East and a former parliamentary candidate for Hexham.
Paul knows what it takes to win across the region and I'm delighted to have his endorsement.

I’m backing @Joe_Morris91 to be the FIRST @UKLabour MP for Hexham. Joe loves the constituency he’s from. He knows many in Hexham are struggling with the cost of living crisis and that rural areas have been neglected by the Tories. He’ll fight for change and a Labour Government.
