How do you propose we do that exactly? Wind works 30% of the time. Solar 10%. Batteries that can back this up don't exist And electricity is less than 20% of total UK energy consumption In heating the government wants to install 600,000 heat pumps per year. At that rate it will take 47 years to electrify heating. But we're not achieving anything like that rate The reality is we're going to use oil and gas for decades to come. So we should focus on how we secure affordable supplies and stop fantasising about a gas free future that's decades away

Illiteracy really doesn't cover it. There are already 28 approved licences. Those taxes only apply when gas prices are high, meaning bills are high. Periods of low price the tax is negative, we pay them. So the economic solution is to move away from gas as fast as possible
Claire Coutinho@ClaireCoutinho

Labour just voted to block North Sea drilling during an energy crisis. Turning down more domestic supply and £25 BILLION in extra tax revenue. That means more taxes on ordinary people instead. Economically illiterate doesn't even begin to cover it.

▪️Covid vaccines = 💰for big pharma ▪️Wars = 💰for military industrial complex ▪️Farming crisis = 💰for the multinational corporations who buy up the land ▪️Public sector cuts = 💰for the corporations who buy up the public sector infrastructures & services. ▪️Hotels & rental accommodation for migrants = 💰for the corporations who provide the accommodation. ▪️Water shortages, poor maintenance and selling off reservoirs = 💰profits for corporation shareholders. ▪️Net zero = 💰for renewable energy corporations. ▪️PFI / government tenders = 💰for corporations at the taxpayers’ expense. ▪️Small independent business decline due to high taxation = 💰Asset gathering opportunities for major corporations. Corporate asset stripping of public assets and small businesses, wealth generation during a crisis & government facilitated corporatism: Corporate greed at our expense. This is the main reason why Britain is falling apart. The country has been sold off. And it’s happening in many other countries. And until governments address this, it will continue. But governments are in the pockets of the corporations. They are serving them rather than serving the people - who they are supposed to represent.

Vegan: "I did it for the animals." Also vegan: Almond consumption kills 50 billion bees annually. Soy monoculture destroys wildlife habitat. Quinoa farming displaces indigenous populations. Avocado cartels literally murder people. Field mice shredded by combines harvesting wheat. Me eating beef: 1-2 cows annually, grass-fed, instant death, no habitat destruction, regenerative grazing. But I'm the one not caring about animals apparently.

🇬🇧 Meanwhile in the UK “The research clearly shows that ethnic minorities don’t feel comfortable in the countryside - there are lots of reasons for this, they don’t know what to wear, don’t know the countryside code” - National Trust Director These people are clearly insane.

We don’t own it. We’d pay same price as currently. It’s causing climate change. Renewables don’t get involved in wars. Renewables are cheaper. Renewables don’t pollute. No brainer.

Has anyone else started checking the ingredients of products that they are buying nowadays especially if it has palm oil in which is supposedly bad for us? It’s a real eye opener what is being put in our food.

Exclusive: Police did not investigate the theft of Morgan McSweeney’s phone because officers were “too busy”, despite the sensitivity of his messages and contacts Sir Keir Starmer’s former chief of staff told the Metropolitan police that his phone was stolen as he returned home from a restaurant in central London on October 20 last year The theft of the work device means that McSweeney’s WhatsApp messages and texts to Lord Mandelson, the former ambassador to the US, cannot be retrieved. It has led critics to question whether the phone was stolen The State of It, the political podcast from The Times and The Sunday Times, can disclose that McSweeney told police the phone was taken by a man wearing a balaclava on an electric bike. The man grabbed it out of his hand as McSweeney was responding to text messages and cycled off. McSweeney gave chase but was unable to keep up Scotland Yard has a record of the incident but did not carry out any formal investigation. Officers did not speak to McSweeney directly because they were too busy. He was given a crime reference number and the case was closed McSweeney reported the theft of his phone to No 10 and the device was shut off remotely. He was given a new device with the same number the next day. The theft of the phone was first reported by The Sun on Sunday thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

Writing in the @Telegraph I explain why @Ed_Miliband's approach makes no sense. Just in housing his electrification plans will take 47 years to deliver So even if everything goes to plan we would still need oil and gas for decades But he has no strategy to secure those supplies. Nothing. He is silent on the issue. He says we have to get off gas but his own plan for this will take half a century So I do his job for him and set out 5 policy ideas that would help secure our oil and gas supplies and reduce bills @ClaireCoutinho @AndrewBowie_MP @griffitha @NJ_Timothy @DavidGHFrost @mattwridley @afneil @Iromg @AllisonPearson @MerrynSW @EdConwaySky telegraph.co.uk/opinion/2026/0…

The NHS is the jewel in Britains crown. It has been built + sustained by migrants since the day it was founded. It is owned by the people, not the government, and they have no consent to sell it to private companies. Invest in the NHS! RT if you agree Post a 💙 for the NHS

@Ne_chloropterus @JillBelch Oil, drill a hole and pump out. REE minerals you dig and scrape out about 50 tonnes of earth for way less than a thimble full. But like I say if we'd done nuclear none of that would be an issue.

@Ne_chloropterus @JillBelch Like I've said, if we were S.Korea we'd do it in 4 yrs and still meet the net zero target, no fossil fuel needed, but we're not and we are shit at virtually everything. Be S.Korea not the UK.

We're driving forward the rollout of “plug-in" solar panels to be available in shops within months, saving people money on their bills. This comes alongside new rules to ensure the majority of new homes are built cheaper to run, with solar panels & clean heating as standard.

Jordan - The EV Guy@JordanEVGuy·
BREAKING: UK to mandate solar panels and heat pumps on new homes. This isn’t a proposal anymore, it’s happening. The UK is set to introduce new building standards that will require most new homes to be fitted with solar panels and low-carbon heating like heat pumps. Every new home → generating its own electricity. Every new home → reducing reliance on gas. Every new home → built for the future, not the past. This is a huge shift. Because while the debate rages on about EVs, net zero, and energy costs… Policy is quietly moving things forward in the background. And here’s the reality👇 Retrofitting millions of old homes? Slow, expensive, disruptive. Building new homes correctly from day one? Scalable, efficient, inevitable. Yes, there will be pushback. Yes, people will talk about upfront costs. But over time? • Lower energy bills. • Less exposure to volatile gas prices. • Reduced emissions. • Smarter, self-sufficient homes. This is how real change happens. Not overnight. Not through arguments on Facebook. But through decisions like this,baked into the system.
