The energy secretary is taking a big gamble as he plans a vast expansion of offshore wind farms — is it likely to pay off? #Echobox=1768379643" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

We have entered an increasingly unstable world where hard power is demonstrated through raw industrial capacity. And in that world, it is countries that cannot provide their industries with cheap energy who are most at risk.

Ed Miliband and Net Zero are putting us at a greater risk of blackouts than at any time since the 1970s. Today I'm launching @KathrynPorter26's report on why we need to get serious about our energy security. 🧵THREAD👇🏾

National Emergency Briefing
National Emergency Briefing@nebriefing·
.@RoryStewartUK & @campbellclaret unfortunately couldn’t make it to the National Emergency Briefing. Would they consider having @MikeBernersLee on #Leading please? Mike chaired the NEB and sets out the UK threats - and the choices ahead - with exceptional clarity. #NEB2025

Professor @MikeBernersLee at the National Emergency Briefing. Clips from his opening and closing statements. "We are asking for a WW2 level of leadership. Leadership, as if the survival of our society depends on it. Because it does." #NEB2025 #NationalEmergencyBriefing

Climate Crisis provides essential context for all politics - trade thro & conflict over the melting Arctic, mass migration, materials for renewables/batteries, global food & water supplies, fossil-fuel lobbying of parties & govs. How can RestIsPolitics not cover the @nebriefing ?

Media always want brevity. A shame @FinancialTimes cut my quote on @nebriefing & what warming means for things that matter, e.g. UK food supply & national security. And that action is a long-term financial opportunity despite small short-term cost. ft.com/content/9e0eb3…

@itvnews saying "it will be tough challenge for scientists to persuade politicians & public that the cost of change is cheaper than the alternative" & failing to mention that ECONOMISTS in the @nebriefing.bsky.social showed just that! nebriefing.org/open-letter-ke… is to MEDIA & Gov.

Again climate crisis tagged on by @BBCNews & an overly weak statement. Climate crisis is increasing extreme rainfall all over the world & this is the latest example. Will worsen until net-zero "It is likely that climate change has also had a part to play" bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Climate tagged on end, not at heart of story as it should be. Plus unnecessary caveats @BBCNews . "While it is hard to link individual extreme weather events to climate change, scientists say ...". We CAN state climate change plays a role in this tragedy bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Meanwhile @nebriefing on Thur MPs were warned of threat to UK from climate crisis, including floods, food shortages & national security, and risk of collapse the Atlantic ocean circulation our entire climate depends on. Yet silence from @BBCNews
John Marsham@JohnMarsham

John Marsham @BBCNews how can you not even mention climate change here? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… Or here? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… It should be in the headline, "Climate crisis causes..."
