31st August 2025
31 Aug 2025 Nigel Farage MP (@Nigel_Farage) So @KemiBadenoch now supports North Sea Oil production..
In government the Tories put a 75% tax on North Sea profits and committed net zero to law.
Don’t believe a word they say about anything. [Source]
30 Aug 2025 Michael Shanks MP (@mgshanks) Tested to death in focus groups? The ever thoughtful gang at Net Zero Watch massively overstate the operation behind my Twitter… ????
The truth, since you ask, is that getting off fossil fuels is the only way to protect bills and deliver energy security. No focus group required. https://twitter.com/netzerowatch/status/1961560260566536194 [Source]

28 Aug 2025 Michael Shanks MP (@mgshanks) 3/ With demand and generation increases, we're going to need an ever stronger grid whether we pursue clean power and net zero or not.
Those who oppose that infrastructure have to say how they will meet future demand for electricity, otherwise they are anti economic growth. [Source]
28 Aug 2025 Nick Timothy MP (@NJ_Timothy) RT @ClaireCoutinho: The Climate Change Committee is using cost assumptions for offshore wind that do not reflect reality.

28 Aug 2025 Claire Coutinho MP (@ClaireCoutinho) When I came out against Drax, their CEO called me "reckless and irresponsible".
Now they are once again being investigated - this time by the FCA - for their sourcing of wood pellets.
Huge cost and more carbon than our last coal plant, but continued because of Net Zero.
Going green by burning trees is absurd. A reminder that protecting nature is NOT the same as Net Zero. [Source]

28 Aug 2025 Kemi Badenoch MP (@KemiBadenoch) Labour’s Net Zero = higher bills
Miliband locking us into 20yrs of sky-high subsidies for unreliable renewables. Now taxpayers will pay to switch OFF “green” energy when there’s too much.
We need cheap, reliable power & a better environment, not ideological economic illiteracy. https://x.com/KemiBadenoch/status/1960985385548362081/photo/1 [Source]

British businesses cannot go on like this any longer.
As well as lower taxes, we need the government to exploit the cheap energy resources the UK already has

18 Aug 2025 Vicky Foxcroft MP (@vickyfoxcroft) Cold, damp, hard-to-heat homes are a reality for too many in Lewisham each winter.
Pleased Labour is prepared for when summer is over, introducing:
???? Warm Homes Plan - £3.4b towards heat decarbonisation and energy efficiency over three years and £13.2b over five years. [Source]
18 Aug 2025 Graham Stuart MP (@grahamstuart) Vivergo was a pillar of British industry, providing bioethanol to power our vehicles while making them greener, making CO2 and providing a market for £150 million of wheat.
Now, it’s gone. And 160 direct jobs with it, as well as over 4,000 at risk in the supply chain.
Keir Starmer gave away this vital piece of British industry in return for nothing from the US.
When Labour negotiates, Britain loses.

13 Aug 2025 Stephen Morgan MP (@StephenMorganMP) What has the Labour Government done to protect Portsmouth’s precious environment?
???? Delivered the Water Bill to clean up our seas, as well as banning the payment of bonuses for polluting water bosses and bringing criminal charges against lawbreakers.
???? Ringfenced funding for vital water infrastructure so that it can only be spent on upgrades benefiting the environment not diverted for bonuses, dividends or salary increases.

12 Aug 2025 Karl Turner MP (@KarlTurnerMP) Proud to stand with @Vivergo team covered in today’s @YorkshirePost front page backing their fight. I welcome Govt efforts, so far, to keep this vital plant, protect jobs, support British farmers & drive net zero. Decision due next week. We badly need a positive outcome. 1/2 [Source]
12 Aug 2025 Adrian Ramsay MP (@AdrianRamsay) Across Europe, there were nearly 1,500 deaths after the heatwave in
July linked to climate breakdown.
Yet the Government still treats it like a one-off. [Source]
11 Aug 2025 Monica Harding MP (@monicabeharding) I joined Fr Charles Chilufya from @CAFOD to hear about the real human impact of the debt crisis - and the practical steps the UK can take to help
3.3 billion people live in countries that spend more on paying back debts than they do on healthcare, education, or tackling climate change.
Lib Dems have led calls for debt cancellation and will keep pressing the Government to act, giving vulnerable countries a fair chance to thrive.

09 Aug 2025 Peter Swallow MP (@PDJSwallow) There is clear public support for tackling climate change and protecting our beautiful nature here in Bracknell Forest - I saw it first hand at the climate summit
It’s good to hear the government recognise that communities are at the heart of protecting our planet https://x.com/PDJSwallow/status/1954150848071627152/video/1 [Source]

06 Aug 2025 Alicia Kearns MP (@aliciakearns) Many of you will have heard another mass solar plant has been proposed for our communities. Kilnside Solar Plant would stretch all the way from Pickworth to Great Casterton and across the A1 towards Exton Park.
I have written to the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero Ed Miliband to express my concerns over the extent of land being used for solar development, particularly in our agricultural communities.

06 Aug 2025 Richard Burgon MP (@RichardBurgon) Fossil fuel giants have driven us to the cliff edge of climate catastrophe while making obscene profits.
I've brought a Make Polluters Pay Bill to Parliament to make those most responsible for the climate crisis fund the urgent action we need.
Over 40 MPs have backed the Bill! https://x.com/RichardBurgon/status/1953123183114035361/video/1 [Source]

01 Aug 2025 Richard Tice MP (@TiceRichard) Lindsey Oil Refinery is a strategic national asset.
Net Zero obsession means Govt seems happy to abandon it, destroying 1,000 jobs on site + 4,000 local indirect jobs & could cost taxpayers billions in decommissioning.
Much smarter to do Joint Venture style arrangement with private sector operator for win win solution [Source]
01 Aug 2025 Claire Coutinho MP (@ClaireCoutinho) Excellent.
If we pursue climate goals that hurt our growth we’ll be a warning, not an example to others.
Wind is not ‘getting cheaper’ - it’s actually getting more expensive.
Nuclear is key but regs hold it back. Thats why I’ve laid radical amendments to speed up nuclear ???????? https://twitter.com/archiehall/status/1950998751977545917 [Source]
01 Aug 2025 Sian Berry MP (@sianberry) We can see catastrophic wildfires and deadly floods as we breach 1.5° warming.
How can @UKLabour justify bigger airports in the midst of climate breakdown?
£21bn JUST for #Heathrow infrastructure is such a waste.
We’ve stopped it before and will again.

01 Aug 2025 John McDonnell MP (@johnmcdonnellMP) Labour’s green credentials will be shot thru as the 3rd runway becomes the iconic battleground of climate change. As new additional flight paths are announced just before the next election, this policy,forced thru by Rachel Reeves, will hang round the necks of Labour candidates [Source]
