It’s just a diversion to say there’s not been enough debate. As the caller says we’ve been debating this forever - and Parliamentary bills do not pass on one vote, there are many stages. I think MPs and peers need to finally bite the bullet and get on with it. #bbcaq

Matthew Elliot sits at the nexus of a group of “hard Brexit” campaigners closely linked to the UK’s climate science deniers and other anti-regulation think tanks. desmog.com/matthew-elliott/ #bbcaq
Exactly - green energy is cheap energy #bbcaq
No Matthew - running ahead is an opportunity not a threat. Stop seeing net zero as a negative - it’s a massive positive if we manage the transition right. The alternative is head in the sand extinction. #bbcaq

There is no shortage of UK infrastructure projects for pension funds. It is ridiculous that our public funds invest much of their money abroad. This is a good reform - especially if we also create city investment partnerships to link pensions and other funds to projects. #r4today
