• 14 Jul 2025 Clinging to fossil fuels is like bailing water from a sinking ship. To delay, deny or distract from clean power is to fail our children.

• 28 May 2025 Clean power means energy security, lower bills and local control- driven by working people. But it’s also about Britain leading the charge against climate change - not just through government, but with community buy-in across the country. Local ownership. Global responsibility. https://twitter.com/CoopParty/status/1927658665600856220 [Source]

• 17 Mar 2025 Fossil fuels are the wrong bet. Even if you don't believe in climate change, the smart move is clean energy. It's homegrown at prices people can afford, and it can fundamentally lower the cost of living for good. Clean power is a no-brainer. https://twitter.com/spectator/status/1901576280358695181 [Source]

• 01 Dec 2023 With less than a decade to take drastic action to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change, this summit must count. @RishiSunak must show climate leadership on the world stage rather pander to the climate sceptics in his party. Time for him to get a grip and step up 4/4 [Source]
• 01 Dec 2023 Co-ordinated climate action abroad with proper investment from the worlds richest nations into a loss and damages fund to help the global south to adapt and mange the impacts of climate change 3/4 [Source]
• 01 Dec 2023 That means an ambitious UK plan, backed up with investment, to sprint to net zero by flooding the market with clean energy we own, insulating our homes & rebuilding our public transport system -creating new jobs and improving communities in every part of the country. 2/4 [Source]
• 01 Dec 2023 The devastating impacts of climate change continues to ratchet up whilst global climate action lags behind. #COP28 must be a watershed moment at home and abroad 1/4 https://twitter.com/Miatsf/status/1730519756384481640/photo/1 [Source]
• 10 Oct 2023 This ???????????????? is how we use the sprint to net zero to lift communities up. Climate justice & social justice working hand in glove. https://twitter.com/CoopParty/status/1711404755619053684 [Source]
• 25 Sep 2023 Over 100 leading economist warn of the economic costs of @RishiSunak dithering over net zero commitments. Playing politics with the climate transition will cost families in the long-run. ???????????????? https://twitter.com/TomRailton1/status/1706056231327080828 [Source]
• 21 Sep 2023 1. Providing policy certainty to unlock large scale green investment to boost our economy 2. Mitigating the costs of transition so they don’t fall on those that can least afford it 3. Driving down bills with cheaper green energy, insulated homes & low cost public transport 2/4 [Source]
• 21 Sep 2023 This from @RishiSunak is beyond shambolic. Green policies are not a nice to have, they are an urgent necessity. Rather than playing politics with net zero, he should be putting in place a proper plan to transition our economy in a way that is fair & just. That means…1/4 https://twitter.com/BBCPolitics/status/1704762675480203390 [Source]
• 20 Sep 2023 A short-sighted and retrograde step if true. The floods and wildfires we’ve seen across the world this summer was a sobering reminder that climate change is here and devastating. We need to step up action not dither. Desperate stuff from ⁦@RishiSunak https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-66857551 [Source]
• 22 Jul 2023 It beggars belief that at a time when parts of the world are burning & the full horror of climate change is clear for all to see, there are still politicians who want to have a myopic fight about cutting the ‘green crap’. Get a grip! https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jul/21/brutal-heat-heavy-rain-week-extreme-weather 1/4 [Source]
• 28 Jun 2023 The @theCCCuk report on the government’s progress on climate action is damning. The slowdown in emissions reduction across the economy means that the pace of annual emission reductions needs to quadruple through the rest of the decade to catch up. https://twitter.com/BBCNews/status/1673955213156261888 [Source]

• 09 Jun 2023 The wildfires in the US this week are another sobering reminder of why we need to sprint not crawl to net zero. Labour get this with an ambitious plan to green the economy. 1/3 https://twitter.com/Ed_Miliband/status/1667079092712226817 [Source]
• 06 Jun 2023 ‘The UK’s most senior climate adviser has strongly endorsed Labour’s vow to halt new oil and gas exploration in the North Sea, and slammed the government for failing to show leadership on the issue.’ Well said Lord Deben. ???????????????? https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2023/jun/06/lord-deben-backs-labours-plan-to-halt-new-north-sea-oil-and-gas-drilling [Source]
• 18 May 2023 And by being at the forefront of negotiating $100bn of funding from the worlds richest nations to enable the global south to adapt and mange the impacts of climate change. Time is running out. Our politicians really need to get a grip and step up! 2/2 [Source]
• 30 Mar 2023 It should put an end to new fossil fuel projects - including stopping businesses from funding them, and co-create an international #GreenNewDeal. The climate emergency is happening now, and there is absolutely no excuse for continuing this dangerous negligence. 4/4 [Source]
• 30 Mar 2023 This would allow us to insulate our homes through a #GreatHomesUpgrade, flood the energy sector with renewable energy we the public own, build the next generation of green social homes and transform the public transport system over the next 8 years. 3/4 [Source]
• 30 Mar 2023 We cannot get to #netzero on the cheap, but delaying action bears a huge economic and human cost. The government should start by investing at least £28bn a year to help us transition. 2/4 [Source]
• 22 Feb 2023 Thank you @labourinthecity & @CiceroGlobal for hosting a great discussion on the role of finance in the transition to Net Zero. Glad I could be part of it. https://twitter.com/Joe_DH/status/1628385877025079297 [Source]

• 08 Dec 2022 There is no time to waste. The climate emergency is happening now, and there is absolutely no excuse for continuing this dangerous negligence. [Source]
• 08 Dec 2022 The decision to go ahead with the Cumbria coalmine is a backward step that blows a hole in the government’s climate commitment. With less than a decade to take action to mitigate the worse impacts of climate change, opening mines that will need to close soon after makes no sense https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1600556209668505635 [Source]
• 07 Nov 2022 Today @rishisunak will tell world leaders how to create new jobs and green growth. Perhaps he should first walk the walk at home, by: - Investing in a national #retrofitting drive - Investing in #renewableenergy - Reforming our broken energy market. https://twitter.com/SkyNews/status/1589424395835015170 [Source]
• 06 Nov 2022 - Getting $100bn annual funding from the richest nations to enable the global south to adapt & manage the impacts of climate change. W/ less than a decade to mitigate the worst impacts of climate change, #COP27 is make or break. Let’s hope our politicians get a grip & step up. [Source]
• 06 Nov 2022 Since the last #COP, the impacts of #climatechange have ratcheted up, whilst global commitment to #climateaction has ratcheted down. This has to change. #COP27 needs to be a watershed moment. @RishiSunak must lead from the front by: [Source]

• 02 Nov 2022 If we get the transition to net zero right, we can pump investment into our communities, expand public transport, build green social homes & create a clean, affordable energy system we all own - creating good jobs & reviving our economy. #GreenNewDeal [Source]
• 02 Nov 2022 Going to COP27 is the right call. This should never have been a question @RishiSunak. Responding to the climate emergency and looking after the UK economy aren’t separate priorities, they are fundamentally linked. https://twitter.com/BBCBreaking/status/1587748352183222272 [Source]
• 28 Oct 2022 Rishi Sunak mustn’t cop out of COP. Instead of continuing to deprioritise the #climateemergency, he should be running with big ideas that tackle the #costofliving & climate crises together: retrofitting millions of homes, free basic energy & a clean system we own. #GreenNewDeal https://twitter.com/Independent/status/1585872522926608388 [Source]
• 23 Oct 2022 Young people in #Camberwell & #Peckham are being dealt a raw deal from shrinking job opportunities to the lack of homes they can afford to the climate crisis.

• 03 Oct 2022 Cutting taxes for millionaires and billionaires has never driven growth. Investing in the industries of the future has. Now, the Chancellor can create growth by investing in green solutions: tackling our economic crisis and #climatecrisis at the same time. 6/6 [Source]
• 26 Sep 2022 The transition to #netzero is a once in a generation opportunity to transform our economy so it works for people & planet. .@UKLabour has seen this & begun to set out plans to drive investment into communities, rebuild industry & create jobs around the UK. #LabourConference2022 [Source]
• 05 Sep 2022 5️⃣ Creating public-owned co-operatives that can flood the market with cheaper #renewableenergy and take control of the energy market. 6️⃣ Boosting incomes by increasing the #NationalLivingWage to reflect the true cost of living. 5/6 [Source]
• 04 Aug 2022 2. Fix our broken energy market by creating public owned energy companies that can disrupt the market and flood it with cheaper #renewableenergy, and a proper regulator with the teeth to make the #energymarket work in our interest. 3/4 [Source]
• 29 Jul 2022 Profits are being made off the back of people's misery. Govt must: 1. Fix our broken energy market: Creating a people-owned provider & flooding the market with cheaper renewable energy 2. Invest in insulating homes 3. Increase the #WindfallTax & use to help pay energy bills now. https://twitter.com/Miatsf/status/1552950705572429825/video/1 [Source]
• 28 Jul 2022 1. Increase the #windfalltax on energy companies to reduce rising bills for those at the sharp end of the crisis. 2. Fix our broken #energymarket: creating a collectively-owned provider that takes customers of bust companies & floods the market with cheaper #renewableenergy 2/3 [Source]
• 26 Jul 2022 5. Fixing our broken #energymarket by creating a people-owned energy company that can take in customers of providers going bust, disrupt the market, and flood it with cheaper #renewableenergy. I spoke to @Channel4News about this a few weeks ago: https://twitter.com/i/status/1527267870203338752 5/5 [Source]

• 18 Jul 2022 We should also put an end to new fossil fuel projects, stop businesses from funding them, & co-create an international #GreenNewDeal. There is no time to waste. The climate emergency is happening now & there is absolutely no excuse for continuing this dangerous negligence. 5/6 [Source]
• 18 Jul 2022 We cannot get to #netzero on the cheap, but delaying action bears a huge economic and human cost. The government should immediately start investing at least £28bn a year to help us transition. 3/6 [Source]

• 29 Jun 2022 Finally, we can't get to #netzero on the cheap. The govt should be investing at least £28bn a year to help us transition. And use this to upgrade our homes, flood the energy sector with renewables, and expand and transform the public transport system over the next 8 years. 3/3 [Source]
• 29 Jun 2022 One of the biggest holes in govt policy is on retrofitting our homes. It’s madness not to act on this now. It helps us meet our climate goals AND it would help millions of families struggling with the cost of living reduce their #energybills. We need a #GreatHomesUpgrade. 2/3 [Source]
• 29 Jun 2022 This is sobering reading from the @theCCCuk. The government can set targets and goals all it wants, but this isn't worth the paper it is written on without a proper plan to deliver them. Time is ticking and we need @BorisJohnson to get a grip of this. 1/3 https://twitter.com/BBCNews/status/1542040665881804801 [Source]
• 20 Jun 2022 A co-operative owned by us, that can: - take on customers of the providers going bust; - act as a challenger to drive down prices, and - invest significantly in renewable energy to lower our energy bills and emissions for the longer term. 3/3 [Source]
• 08 Jun 2022 .@GNDRising are doing amazing work. Sign up to their action this September to put pressure on Rishi Sunak to act in response to the cost of living and climate crisis. ???????????????? https://twitter.com/GNDRising/status/1534439271440031744 [Source]
• 01 Jun 2022 Forcing ⁦@TfL⁩ to make cuts to the bus network in London makes no sense. It will just put added pressure on families struggling with the cost of living. We should be expanding public transport not shrinking it as we shift to net zero. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-61660409 [Source]
• 25 Apr 2022 "It represents the epitome of the ​‘burn now and cross our fingers something will save us later’ philosophy which has led our climate to the brink."

• 17 Feb 2022 Really enjoyed speaking to ⁦@sajeraj⁩ about how we need to shift the skill system to ensure we transition to net zero in a way that is just. Have a read of his piece in ⁦@NewStatesman⁩. https://www.newstatesman.com/spotlight/skills/2022/02/miatta-fahnbulleh-skill-up-to-save-the-planet [Source]
• 10 Feb 2022 Great to see @theCCCuk talking about the need to retrofit 19m UK homes. To create #greenjobs, lower bills & emissions, & make homes warmer, #retrofitting is worth the investment it requires. Gov’t should urgently implement @NEF’s #GreatHomesUpgrade - https://greathomesupgrade.org/ https://twitter.com/BBCScienceNews/status/1491579833167532040 [Source]
• 02 Feb 2022 4️⃣ **Shift to backing SMEs** – through access to affordable rents, finance, and business advice, and - 5️⃣ **Shift to green** – with a £28bn a year green investment package, with 50% devolved to communities, alongside regional #CarbonBudgets and just transition plans. 12/15 [Source]
• 25 Jan 2022 So much work to do to make big advances on climate adaptation. Great piece by @KTBrowne on how we could do this from the bottom with adequate #ClimateFinance https://twitter.com/SEIresearch/status/1485890688160079872 [Source]
• 10 Jan 2022 But to truly get a grip on the #EnergyCrisis, the government must also reduce its reliance on #fossilfuel markets by boosting domestic #renewableenergy production, and tackling the energy market monopoly. 2/5 [Source]
• 10 Nov 2021 It's time for @BorisJohnson's to lead by example at #COP26. That means: 1. Getting a commitment from all countries to put in place #netzero strategies & action plans to cut emissions by at least half by 2030 so we have a shot at staying below 1.5C. 8/10 [Source]
• 10 Nov 2021 Boris says: "If we don't get serious about climate change today, it will be too late for our children to do so tomorrow” Boris does: Scraps the Green Home Grant despite urgent need to #retrofit 19 million homes, whilst ploughing £27bn into road transport. I could go on. 7/10 [Source]
• 10 Nov 2021 Boris says: #COP26 "must mark the beginning of the end" of climate change. Boris does: Just 2 weeks ago, oversees a huge tax reduction on flights in the UK (the most polluting way to travel). And encourages airport expansion. 6/10 https://twitter.com/Miatsf/status/1458369005719261184/photo/1 [Source]
• 10 Nov 2021 Boris says: There are "no compelling excuses" for failing to tackle #climatechange. Boris does: Has a pipeline of 40 potential #fossilfuel projects which, if approved, could emit 3x the annual emissions of the entire UK.

• 10 Nov 2021 Boris says: "The longer we fail to act, the worse it gets and the higher the price when we are forced by catastrophe to act.” Boris does: Committed only £7bn to support the #netzero transition - a fraction of what the @theCCCuk says we need. He needs to spend £30bn a year. 2/10 [Source]
• 08 Nov 2021 As a big contributor to historical and current CO2 emissions, one of the world's richest countries, host of #COP26, and having recently cut its foreign aid budget, the UK can & should be doing far more to help poor nations deal with the devastating impacts of #climatechange. https://twitter.com/Independent/status/1457566201014534146 [Source]
• 04 Nov 2021 I was on #bbcqt last week asking how @RishiSunak could cut a tax on bankers (costing £4bn) whilst failing to help the millions facing a cost of living crisis. And how he failed to mention - let alone invest in - climate change... a week before #COP26 ????????‍♀️ https://bit.ly/3k2Dsia https://twitter.com/Miatsf/status/1456326277091180558/video/1 [Source]
• 03 Nov 2021 Great discussion on #climate and #COP26 with @simonmundy @sturdyAlex & @SnellArthur in this week’s @bunker_pod. Have a listen! https://twitter.com/bunker_pod/status/1455975817490567168 [Source]
• 03 Nov 2021 It's time for @BorisJohnson's rhetoric to be replaced by action. That means: 1️⃣ Getting a commitment from all countries to put in place #netzero strategies & action plans to cut emissions by at least half by 2030 so we have a shot at staying below 1.5C. [Source]
• 03 Nov 2021 Boris says: "If we don't get serious about climate change today, it will be too late for our children to do so tomorrow.” Boris does: Scraps the Green Home Grant despite urgent need to #retrofit 19 million homes, whilst ploughing £27 bn into road transport. I could go on... [Source]
