It is an incredible honour to have been appointed by the Prime Minister to serve as his Chief Whip and deliver the change in culture that he has promised colleagues and the public.

Clean air is a silent (and locally led) success - borne from green spaces, active transport, action against polluting vehicles. Labour can and should own the win. An incredibly good bit of work and polling by our programme manager Ralph Palmer, supported by @GoodGrowthFdn

Huge fire in Walthamstow with a huge emergency services response. The ground is an absolute tinderbox. Climate change IS making wildfires far more intense and far bigger.

Sad I know, but I do enjoy reading back what the Tories said two years ago. Here's a brilliant explanation of how the renewables auction works and the importance of getting off fossil fuels by none other than.... Claire Coutinho. I agree with her.

Michael Shanks MP@mgshanks

This is utterly misleading, again. These figures are just the cap for the auction, not the final price - as Claire well knows from her own years running these auctions. Just like in the last two auctions, where new clean energy projects cleared well below the cap.

Boosting cheaper and cleaner energy is the best thing for the cost of living, for our small businesses, for industrial capacity and security, and for new investment into the UK. Upgrade the grid: unlock the country.

This govt should urgently look to ease up key constraint areas - investing right now to save money in the not-so-long term. Targeted grid upgrades in the first 100 days might not be the sexiest or most headline grabbing policy- but it might just be the most impactful.

Why should the Burnham government prioritise targeted grid upgrades in its first 100 days? How would this save consumers money, revitalise our industries and lead to new and innovative growth? And what are constraint costs anyhow? 👇
