Wow – amazing news this morning. Getting to net zero will be even cheaper than we previously thought & could save households £700 a year on bills, with more savings from switch to EVs. This is win-win-win for people in the UK and govt must commit to making it happen.

The government could save households £100s a year on their energy bills by making these three changes ⬇️ Why wait?

Renewable energy is cheap and reliable. Investment in renewables could save people £700 a year on their energy bills according to the Climate Change Committee. The Green Party would invest properly in renewables to bring down bills and emissions and secure the path to net zero.

It is unbelievably counterproductive to fund increased defence spending by cutting aid to the most fragile countries, or by squeezing stretched departmental budgets. Why does the PM not fund this by increasing taxes on the most wealthy rather than further burdening the poorest?

The green economy grew by 10% in 2024 and generated £83bn. It’s time to stop backpedalling on the green stuff and hit the accelerator. The faster we decarbonise the faster we cut energy costs, create jobs and strengthen our economy. buff.ly/3XdEACW

FULL TIME BOURNEMOUTH 0-1 WOLVES Massive win for Wolves in a weekend when Leicester and Ipswich (and Southampton) were beaten badly. They didn't play at all well with an extra man in the second half but they defended their box well and got the job done somehow after a pretty good 1st half. #WWFC

Just in case no one knows the UK doesn't have a record number of people on benefits, in fact we have higher employment than France, Spain, Italy, Portugal, Finland and many more. It's all just a lie for the billionaires to blame poor people for their mess.

It's a fallacy to say that we have to choose between builders and blockers. We could choose to have to right sorts of development, in the right place, at the right price that would meet our housing needs while protecting our precious natural environment.

📈 Average UK private rents increased by 8.7% over the last 12 months. 🚨 The sector is out of control and contributing to widening inequality and homelessness. 💚 The Green Party would introduce rent controls to stop the exploitation of private renters by landlords.

Zelenskyy press conference: “The war cost Ukraine $320 billion, of which $120 billion was paid by Ukrainians, and another 200 billion by the US and Europe.” Figures Trump is bandying about are false. Europe contributed more than the US.

🤝 Sadiq Khan has admitted Brexit was a mistake and that a new youth mobility scheme is needed. 🤦 However, Keir Starmer has said no. 🇪🇺 Only the Green Party is committed to fixing our relationship with the EU and working together to counter a reckless Trump administration.

When Dr Who was axed by the BBC in 1969, no one expected Verity Lambert and former Crossroads writers Letts and Dicks to bring it back for ITV. Cliff Richard was grounded on earth with his faithful hovercraft, Bessie and UNIT headquarters were based under Birmingham's Spaghetti Junction. #DoctorWho

💥 Well how about that. After years of Brexiteers saying we had to leave the EU to avoid being forced into a European army… … it turns out that Brits are fine with the idea. With the UK explicitly included. A plurality of Tory voters support it - and even a fair chunk of Reform. How times change…
