Don't underestimate the importance of today's LUF announcement. It's an essential part of supporting farmers and rural communities while delivering food security, clean energy, housing, nature recovery and climate resilience. 👇️ Hear from @AlexMackaness on why below.

Labour must ignore the voices seeking to pit clean energy against nature, and deliver for both. We could always do better than ripping up habitat regs or defending broken process. I’ve written for @politicshome on why our Fingleton response shows how 👉 politicshome.com/opinion/articl…

There are still questions to be answered but it’s good to see a serious, systemic approach to reforming our water system. This is an exciting start for what comes in the upcoming Water Bill - which will be vital to this gov's approach to improving our natural environment.

Doubling funding for catchment partnerships. Some will argue it should go further - but this is a strong achievement and government leadership in driving this agenda really matters.✅

💧 The Government’s Water White Paper is out. Water companies must do far better and be held squarely to account. But delivering the scale of change needed will require more than blame and antagonism and this White Paper is a genuine move in that direction.

The UK imports millions of tonnes of wood from overseas to burn for electricity each year. Since 2012 it has cost UK billpayers billions to subsidise this. Ahead of a gov decision on whether to extend subsidies, I write on the political risks of subsidising biomass for Labour.

On Monday, we hosted our 2nd Birthday Party in Westminster, with the generous support of EDF and EDF Renewables. This has been a tremendous year for LCEF, and we wouldn’t be here without our supporters. We’ve got big things planned in 2025 - please do get in touch!

13/ Labour must back British farming with leadership, ambition, and commitment. 🌹 By building trust, empowering farmers, and driving a bold vision for resilience and renewal, Labour can ensure farming thrives at the heart of a secure, sustainable UK food system. @LCEF_UK

With more farmer protests & the launch of the latest UK Food Security Report, I’ve been musing about the need for leadership on farming. 🧵
