• 11 Feb 2026: Parliamentary Speech

  Local authorities are ready to play their part in delivering growth, tackling the climate emergency, insulating homes, improving air quality and building the infrastructure that our communities need, but they cannot do so if they are permanently firefighting. If we are serious about having strong communities and a strong economy, we must get local government finances right and not defund rural councils. We need to support them, so that they can deliver for their residents, rather than leaving them to pick up the pieces of national Government failure.

  ????Our pensions are currently fuelling the climate crisis with billions invested in fossil fuels. That's why I am proud to have submitted an amendment to the Pension Schemes Bill recommended by the Better Pensions Coalition @TheFinanceLab to ensure a better future. @UKDivest https://x.com/MP4Stratford/status/1986483381488521594/video/1 [Source]

• 21 Oct 2025: Parliamentary Speech

  For such an important Bill, I do not think that we should wait four years—my community will be left behind by then. I do not want to wait for the ballot box; I want to give the mayor the tools to have inclusive local growth plans that take areas into consideration. That means they will be empowered to lobby the Government for transport networks or broadband connectivity in isolated areas and coastal communities, which are also, by the way, vulnerable to storms and flooding because of climate change, so they have very different needs.

• 16 Oct 2025: Parliamentary Speech

  The strategic spatial energy plan and the local area energy plans set out how an area intends to meet its energy demands and, most importantly, to decarbonise its supply and deliver the infrastructure needed for the transition that we all want to see to net zero. The land use framework also provides a strategic view of how land is allocated to balance the needs of housing, agriculture—in my constituency—and businesses. Education and skills are also important, including adult education, as are transport and so on.

  By requiring mayors to check that development applications are consistent with the strategic frameworks and any strategic visions, the amendment would ensure that short-term decisions are made with a strategic mindset and a long-term vision, taking into consideration our national commitments to sustainable growth, sustainable energy, net zero targets and local priorities in a given area, which could be the visitor economy, agriculture, business and so on.

• 10 Jun 2025: Parliamentary Speech

  We also need serious, measurable action on climate. Development corporations are being handed significant powers, yet the Bill fails to guarantee that they are delivering in line with the UK’s climate targets. That is why amendment 151 is so important. It would ensure that the Secretary of State publishes a report on whether development corporations are meeting their legal duties on sustainable development and climate change. With so much at stake, we need transparency and accountability built into the system.

• 23 Apr 2025: Parliamentary Speech

  As we look ahead to COP30, billions of pounds of local government pension schemes are still invested in fossil fuels and in industries that drive deforestation, biodiversity loss and wildlife extinction. If we are to build a just and sustainable future, we must build a just and sustainable pension system that protects not only people in retirement, but the planet and generations to come.

  ????We should be building houses fit for the climate emergency, to the highest insulaton standards and with the use of renewable energy. ????️ My Bill would mandate higher standards of energy efficiency, meeting a zero-carbon standard. [Source]

  I'm a proud supporter of the Climate and Nature Bill—which will put us on the path to restore nature—as part of the just transition to a cheaper, cleaner energy future.

  It's time to wake up. I represent communities vulnerable to flooding. They understand the importance of reaching net zero targets and use clean energy, so that we can all be safe in our homes. True leadership is *not* pandering to fossil fuel polluters destroying our planet. https://twitter.com/PippaCrerar/status/1743412117040959598 [Source]

  All the principled politicians are leaving the Conservative Party. The U-turn by Sunak on Net Zero is unforgivable. In the middle of huge flooding in our country, the decision to give new extensive North Sea oil and gas licenses is reckless and dangerous. ???? https://twitter.com/PippaCrerar/status/1743336553714499910 [Source]

  The Conservatives greenwashing the British public since 2015. Meanwhile, locally the Stratford on Avon District Council Conservatives rejected all of the @SuALibDems budget amendments to tackle climate change. #ClimateEmergency https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/mar/09/fossil-fuels-more-support-uk-than-renewables-since-2015 [Source]

  I was delighted to help residents and the Luddington Parish Council plant 7 trees, each tree symbolising one decade of Queen Elizabeth's reign, part of the Queen's Green Canopy initiative. A wonderful legacy, also supporting efforts to tackle climate change. #Luddington https://twitter.com/MP4Stratford/status/1621556274717417473/photo/1 [Source]

  By approving a new coal mine in Cumbria in the era of the climate emergency, the first to be opened in Britain in 30 years, the Tories have shown their true colour, and it's not green. Fossil fuel friendly and bent on destroying our planet. #CumbrianCoalMine #ClimateEmergency [Source]

  Opening a new coal mine in the era of catastrophic climate change is absurd. We are going backwards. https://twitter.com/LibDems/status/1600830381175234561 [Source]
