I'm opening a debate in the Commons shortly demanding an end to the fossil fuel industry's influence on our politics. I'm calling for - a firewall between the industry & policy making - no fossil fuel money in politics - no more public subsidies for fossil fuels @friends_earth

This is turning into a bonfire of public money. £2.5 billion to fund sketchy carbon capture tech at a power station that burns trees - not any old trees, but pristine Canadian forests. We already give £800m to Drax annually to support its tree burning. bit.ly/4b1hK6G

So deeply depressing - & frankly terrifying - that as many as 68 Tory MPs just voted to make shameful #Rwanda Bill even more shameful by supporting amendment which would explicitly disapply *any* international law that might stop removals. This is seriously dangerous territory

After the effect of 'Mr Bates vs the Post Office', let’s hope Toby Jones is also working on new TV dramas about water pollution, climate change, covid, PPE contracts, the refugee crisis, the cost of living, energy prices, and the NHS

A message to all the Tories ahead of the Commons Vote on new oil & gas licenses. There’s no use being loyal to a leader who won’t be at the helm very soon. If you still have a conscience, or any idea about the #ClimateCrisis, do the right thing today. Be on the right side of history.

The NHS is by no means perfect, but no one in the UK has ever been declared bankrupt because of medical bills. Yet. We must never take our NHS for granted - please RT if you agree.

We're told that #COP28 is significant progress SPOILER: it's not We need legislation to get us on track– fortunately there is a bill ready to go, it's called the Climate & Ecology Bill & it would deliver a nature-led just transition for all Act now at zerohour.uk

Tories can jeer at me all they like - I will vote against cruel, immoral & unworkable Rwanda Bill. We've already seen right to strike, right to protest & other democratic principles being eroded - now we're seeing flagrant attack on human rights & our courts. This Bill must fall.
