If you are a Unite member and want more climate action (not less), look out for the ballot paper this week. Sharon Graham has argued for more drilling in the North Sea and briefed against Ed Miliband because of his work on net zero. Time to dump Sharon!

EU gas is above €90/MWh, its highest since Dec 2022. Brent is above $115, its highest since June 2022. The EU has already paid €100bn+ extra for oil and gas since Hormuz closed. Not one extra molecule. Best defence: electrify. janrosenow.substack.com/p/eu…

The Boiler Upgrade Scheme costs £400m a year. Compare that to the £40bn the Treasury spent propping up bills during the last energy crisis. It’s about 1% of that, and it helps get all types of households - including social housing - off the gas that caused the crisis in the first place. @g__j on @bbcworldservice why cutting it now would be a mistake for Britain

If you want to accelerate climate change vote for Kemi!
Ofgem have today revealed that Britain might not have enough gas in a worst case scenario this winter. Burnham says that it's better to produce oil and gas in Britain than importing it. So why is he banning new licences? Here’s the real reason we need to get Britain drilling👇

Stop using names like Storm Austen or Storm Boelo. Let's call them Storm Exxon and Storm Shell, just to remind us who's to blame.

Absolutely ridiculous decision by Plaid. Under grounding is more expensive, takes longer, is worse for the environment, is much harder to maintain and identify/fix problems and takes up way more agricultural land. Zero good argument for it. Actually infuriates me this nonsense.

This myth is so ridiculous that we made a whole live dashboard to debunk it. If you want real data from modern heat pumps it's right here: octopus.energy/cosy-heat-pum…
Most people who have heat pumps have found their heating bills more expensive than gas. Stop the con

Two gas crises within a decade with no end in sight — and still, some think gas heating is the answer. China’s EV wave started with subsidies, now they’re reaping the benefits. Greg writes on how Britain’s got to back itself on heat pumps 👇

I find it dispicable that @CarolineLucas has called for the suspension of Lubna Speitan and so, in response, I have sent an official complaint to the Green Party regarding Caroline as I believe her targetting of Lubna is harassment & a breach of the code of conduct

The people desperately trying to drag the Greens back to 3–4% in the polls and 50,000 members are delusional. Zack has almost single-handedly transformed the Green Party. He’s not going anywhere.

As an objective observer, it’s clear that Zack has transformed the Greens from a party that sheepishly sits on the sidelines offering practically nothing, to one that ignites national debates and influences government. The Greens would be mad to change leader, stark raving mad.

My message to @ZackPolanski is stand firm. Don't listen to Caroline 'One Seat' Lucas. You have energised this party like no other previously. It was always going to be a tough ask to win Holborn and St Pancras and you should be proud of your efforts whatever the outcome.

Madness. Methane is 80X more potent than CO2 in heating the planet. Cutting it is best way of averting runaway climate change, preventing up to 0.3C of warming as soon as 2040 with cost effective measures. But Trump is willfully increasing emissions, propublica.org/article/metha…

Record UK electricity generation from wind and solar - up 38% from last year - saved Britons £1 billion in gas imports in March alone. Meanwhile generation from gas fell 25%. The energy transition is under way and it’s saving us cash. carbonbrief.org/analysis-rec…
