Eid Mubarak, from all of us at the Labour Party!

Camden Labour are investing in a range of community safety priorities and challenging anti-social behaviour 👇

🚨 WATCH: Donald Trump criticises Keir Starmer's leadership style "He told me 'I'm meeting with my team to make a determination'. I said, 'You don't need to meet with a team. You're the PM... Why do you need to meet with your team to find out whether or not to send some boats?"

Ed Miliband is a dangerous fantasist who is gambling with our energy security.   As the world gets more dangerous, Britain should be asking itself a hard question: is our energy system resilient enough?   Miliband argues that his race to power the country on the wind and the sun makes us more secure. In reality, he is doubling down on a reckless experiment which is making us weaker and poorer. What Britain really needs is an Energy Resilience Strategy.   Miliband’s first fatal mistake is shutting down the North Sea, which still provides half of our gas supply. Rather than use our own, Labour would prefer Britain became more reliant on dirtier gas from abroad, while losing thousands of jobs here and sending billions of pounds overseas in the process.   We have to end Miliband’s mad ban on new oil and gas licences, scrap the Net Zero restrictions and job-destroying taxes and maximise recovery from the North Sea.   Second, we need to make electricity cheap. Miliband is so consumed by making our electricity supply completely clean that he doesn’t care that he’s also making it unbearably expensive. He has the problem completely back to front. He is making it harder for people to opt for electricity to protect themselves from shocks. Our Cheap Power Plan would cut everyone’s electricity bill by 20% and make it far cheaper for households and businesses to electrify if they choose to do so.   Third, we must double down on nuclear. Nuclear provides reliable, 24/7 power which has the most secure supply chain of any energy source. Yet Labour scrapped my plans to build the third modern large nuclear plant in Britain. This is absurd and must be reversed.   Fourth, in times of war, our industrial power is our hard power. British industry is being crippled by soaring Carbon Taxes which have as much as doubled under Labour. We will still need chemicals, plastics and steel, we will just end up getting them from more polluting countries who do not impose these taxes. We must stop escalating Carbon Taxes and back British industry.   None of this is inevitable. We are an energy-rich nation choosing to make ourselves energy-poor. Making ourselves weak to appease Net Zero ideologues will make us a warning, not an example, to the rest of the world.   It’s not too late to change course. Keir Starmer must ditch his dangerous Energy Secretary and prioritise Britain’s energy resilience now.

Climate Outreach analysis of 21 Green Party leaflets since Polanski was elected shows across 40+ pages & 10k words: 🤔 1 mention of ‘climate change’. 🤔 1 of ‘nature’. 🤔 0 of ‘net zero’. Environmentalism is hard work. That’s why the Greens are retreating from it.

Tensions running high as Petrol Retailers Association pulls out of No11 talks due to fears that staff risk abuse due to "inflammatory language" from ministers This is what we saw from Rachel Reeves earlier: “I will not tolerate any company exploiting the current situation to make excess profits at consumers’ expense. I’m backing drivers and families — and I expect a fair deal at the pump.”
