• 31 May 2024: Tweet

  It’s sometimes said that we can’t tackle soaring bills and climate change at the same time ???????? With Great British Energy, we can, generating homegrown clean electricity at low cost ⚡️???? This will ease the cost of living whilst creating skilled jobs and progress toward net zero https://twitter.com/CllrJoshNewbury/status/1796466516231409863/photo/1 [Source]

  Whether it’s pushing for well paid, highly skilled jobs in a decarbonised energy industry or standing up against Amazon’s employment practices, @GMB_union is always fighting for workers ✊???? Delighted to have the GMB’s support to become the next Labour MP for Cannock Chase ???????? https://twitter.com/CllrJoshNewbury/status/1733539575249739911/photo/1 [Source]

• 13 Nov 2023: Tweet

  I’m wholeheartedly backing @CoopParty’s campaign for clean, green, community-owned energy ⚡️???? We need to bring down bills and decarbonise but if that can benefit communities too, isn’t that a no-brainer? ????????‍♂️ If you’re a councillor then sign this letter ???????? https://party.coop/campaign/community-energy/letter?utm_source=twitter&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=comenglet1123_tw [Source]

  The conference hall was PACKED when the brilliant @jreynoldsMP set out Labour’s vision for British industry ???????????? Industrial strategy is meaningless under the Tories but a Labour government would restore our industries’ competitive edge and back them to reach net zero ???????? #Lab23 https://twitter.com/CllrJoshNewbury/status/1711350948453331043/photo/1 [Source]

• 08 Oct 2023: Tweet

  It was brilliant to hear from a fantastic panel including Lord Mandelson and @jreynoldsMP on the need for government to act strategically to enable business and industry with stability, certainty and a clear direction of travel i.e. net zero and cutting edge technologies #Lab23 https://twitter.com/CllrJoshNewbury/status/1711095314726162866/photo/1 [Source]

• 23 Oct 2021: Tweet

  I’ve had a fantastic couple of days at @_WALC’s Annual Conference which this year was focused on the #ClimateEmergency ???? Lots of practical and fascinating work being done on emissions reductions, adaptation and biodiversity which I’ll be taking back to our parish council ???????????? https://twitter.com/_WALC/status/1451484810917072899 [Source]

  Completely agree but forcing expensive heat pumps on millions will lead to huge in-home disruption + major issues with electricity production and supply. Decarbonising gas grid with carbon neutral affordable hydrogen is way forward. Unions back this, time for @UKLabour to as well https://twitter.com/CarolineLucas/status/1450374217229275136 [Source]

• 19 Oct 2021: Tweet

  @LabGND It‘a a limp strategy BUT shifting millions to heat pumps won’t eradicate fuel poverty. There’s a reason fuel poverty schemes fund connections to gas grid. @GMB_union has said a lot about how hydrogen could decarbonise whilst securing good, unionised jobs: https://www.gmb.org.uk/news/governments-hydrogen-strategy-welcome-not-ambitious-enough [Source]

  Very proud to have supported having a #CitizensAssembly on climate change in Cannock Chase and to have pushed this forward as cabinet member ???????? Unfortunately, the council is now controlled by Tories who abstained on declaring a #ClimateEmergency and opposed a Citizens’ Assembly https://twitter.com/CannockChaseDC/status/1392812328287195145 [Source]

  @PeterABedford Who’s to say the BBC isn’t impartial? That’s your personal view as a highly partisan person. You’d probably say Blue Planet II was biased because it told viewers climate change is real and we need to act on it ???? I’ve only heard extremely ideological people complain about bias ????????‍♂️ [Source]

• 11 Oct 2019: Tweet

  Most Tory MPs act just like the climate-denying Republicans in the US ???? Doesn’t make any sense to defend trashing the climate in the name of private profit when unchecked climate change would wreck the global economy ???????? https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/oct/11/tory-mps-five-times-more-likely-to-vote-against-climate-action?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other [Source]

  The first debate this morning is on #ClimateChange, energy and the environment, my area of interest and my day job. Some interesting points being made, especially around #EnergyEfficiency and #FuelPoverty [Source]

  Very worrying scenes in Cape Town.. could be a situation we see far more of in coming decades as climate change takes hold. Globally we need to get our consumption of finite resources under control or face dire consequences. https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2018/feb/03/day-zero-cape-town-turns-off-taps?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other [Source]

  Good line of questioning from Corbyn on air pollution & green energy but bit strange on #Budget day. Where's the anti-austerity push? #PMQs [Source]

• 29 Mar 2015: Tweet

  Ridiculous tht UN fund to fight climate change in developing countries can be spent on coal power stations #Hypocrisy http://gu.com/p/47432 [Source]

  @Jakob_whiten Many people on doorstep are appalled by some of your more abhorrent policies e.g. climate change denial and flat taxation [Source]
