@ClaireCoutinho @CCHQPress Insulting the electorate really isn’t a good look.

‘Those people’ who back more drilling in the North Sea now include:
Rachel Reeves
John Swinney
Renewable UK
The Chair of *** Great British Energy ***
and everybody else with at least half a brain cell.
How many more before Ed admits he’s got this badly wrong?

'Those people who say new exploration licenses will somehow create huge amounts of energy for us... I mean, they're just wrong' Ed Miliband told ITV News that drilling for oil in the North Sea wouldn't bring down Britain's energy bills

Now that I'm in the demographic myself, I'm completely bewildered by the popularity of Reform among over 65s. How can rapidly ageing ex-punk rockers and mods (or even hippies, for that matter) bring themselves to vote for Farage?

The ‘emergency brake’ didn’t convince the British people in 2016.
It won’t pass muster in 2026.
But of course, that won’t bother Starmer who just wants to undo Brexit, betray the 17.4 million and rejoin the EU as quickly as possible.

🇬🇧🇪🇺 In an attempt to break a deadlock in talks over the youth mobility scheme, the EU has now proposed an “emergency brake” if the numbers coming to Britain are too high. 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

@KemiBadenoch Talk about barking up the wrong tree!
Scotland’s renewable energy sector is rapidly overtaking traditional oil and gas, with over 17.8 GW of operational capacity by late 2025, meeting nearly all of Scotland’s electricity consumption.

Today I’ve been at Britain’s oldest business - Aberdeen Harbour, which has been going since 1136. It’s nearly 900 years old!
It's survived the Vikings and two World Wars…but now it’s facing Starmer and Miliband’s bonkers energy policies.
Let's get Britain drilling now!

@RobertJenrick Would you now? What’s your position on the war today, still supporting it?

Reform would make an emergency cut in VAT at the pumps + scrap Reeves’s fuel duty hike.
Together that’d save you 18p and 20p a litre on petrol and diesel.
Labour are doing nothing…

Exactly this👇🏼
The Conservatives have the right plan to get Britain working again.

Rachel Reeves is dangerously delusional. She's borrowing more and more money to pay off the debts that we already have, while still spending huge sums on benefits and Net Zero. And as ever, it will be hard-working people that are forced to pick up the tab.

@LeeHarris We know no such thing and nor do you. I’m content to wait for the police investigation. Did you support Liz Truss and Boris Johnson by any chance?

We all know it. The reason Keir Starmer doesn't want *anyone* to see the messages between McSweeney and Mandelson is because whatever is on those messages will bring him down.
He's lying.
This is a cover-up.

@BorisJohnson The irony and hypocrisy that ooze from so few words is astounding.

The greatest vanishing act since Shergar!

Ignore GB news. Ignore Twitter.
Britain is full of good, kind people who want to build a better kinder world.
Today showed that.

@BenGrahamUK Still gaslighting. We’re way smarter than you may think; we know who privatised gas and oil, we know what remains in the North Sea is incidental, we know renewables are the future; we know climate change is real and we know your party is a busted flush.

Britain’s gas supplies from Norway are set to be cut by up to a third in a few months.
Instead of relying on imports, we should be drilling the North Sea for every last drop of oil, right now, securing our energy and protecting British industry.
Richard Wellings@RichardWellings
Britain's gas supplies from Norway will reportedly be cut by up to a third in a few months' time due to pipeline maintenance. If only the fake-conservatives hadn't shut down and demolished our coal-fired power stations... telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/…

University of Oxford : maximising oil and gas extraction here would only save UK households up to £82 (€95) per year. A UK fully powered by renewable energy, would save households up to £441 (€510) a year on energy bills.

@BethRigby @SkyNews The right of British politics is in melt down. Their commander in chief across the pond has, metaphorically speaking, blown them up.

Battle for the right: Both parties adamant there’ll be no deal & modelling by @SkyNews & excl Ispos polling backs it up. Reform & Tories could risk losing as many votes as they gain. Meanwhile alliance between progressives more popular. Very interesting > news.sky.com/story/tories-f…

Kemi Badenoch doing a great job of pretending oil and gas from the North Sea will be 'ours' and will bring bills down and increase energy security. Rather than be sold on the global market and be mainly exported.

@Lewis_Goodall responds to Bridget Phillipson's suggestion that coverage of Morgan McSweeney’s phone is ‘getting ridiculous’.

@DPJHodges Covering up what exactly? The PM took responsibility and apologised.

The Mandelson Messages are now disappearing - and being disappeared - on an industrial scale. It’s become one of the biggest cover-ups in British political history. And the voters aren’t going to fall for it > Mail Plus > dailymail.co.uk/debate/article…
