UK is Europe’s most gas addicted country
Heat pumps installed:
🇫🇷 3.1m
🇳🇴 1.3m
🇬🇧 280k
If UK had installed as many heat pumps as Estonia, domestic gas prices would be 34% lower than last year
Gas imports 19% lower
💚 Time for a retrofit revolution!

This will be disastrous for many small businesses

would instead have increased NI rate for those on higher incomes

Spot on!
You can’t claim to be acting on the climate crisis when you’re making it cheaper to drive and more expensive to use public transport

Freezing fuel duty while cutting bus subsidies can’t be right in the middle of a climate emergency
We need cheaper buses not more cars on the road

Great to hear Reeves announce investment into HMRC
Greens have been calling for this for years
The most fair and efficient way to gain more tax is to hunt down those who can afford pay advisors to avoid it!

Reeves’s references to previous Labour governments only accentuates the lack of ambition from this one
Where is the real hope? Where is the real change?

I know I’m going to feel pretty critical once
https://nitter.privacydev.net/RachelReevesMP
starts delivering her budget
So I’m taking this opportunity to say how much I admire her as the first woman to present a budget

Labour’s refusal to make the wealthier pay more is distorting the whole budget
It’s why they are imposing extra costs on business, undermining their ‘growth strategy’
And why they are freezing thresholds for income tax, meaning those on lower incomes will pay more

💉‘Weight-loss drugs’: a classic example of how growth-driven economy damages us
🍔Creating more growth (and profit) for fast food companies and for big pharma
😰No interest in our health or happiness

would create a healthy food environment for people and planet

Ominous to hear the boss of Eli Lilly talking deregulation in
https://nitter.privacydev.net/BBCr4today
Now that we are a small market outside the EU he is looking for a better offer
That means attacks on our protections for nature and people
This is what lies behind today’s ‘investment summit’

Even these weak proposals to gather more tax from the wealthy are being abandoned?
Austerity under Labour feels so much worse than austerity under the Tories
How can we repair the country when Labour are so cowardly on tax?

It's not carbon that's being captured
But
https://nitter.privacydev.net/UKLabour
that have been captured by the fossil fuel industry
Sad - and dangerous

Michael is a proper journalist focused on the real story
We might expect a Labour government to shut down tax havens
But not if they’re funded by them and those who use them to avoid paying tax
