🤔 Today, the Energy Secretary told us we have a choice. Pursue net zero or avoid blackouts. I’m not buying it - and neither should you. An Energy Secretary worth their salt would ensure energy that’s secure, sustainable… AND affordable. Has Claire Coutinho admitted she’s

🚙 The Conservatives were elected in 2019 on a manifesto that had electric vehicles front and centre of their transport policy. With petrol prices now soaring - due to factors well beyond any #Budget - nudging people towards EVs is more important than ever.

Labour have ditched their £28bn green growth commitment. But the problems it would solve remain. Whoever wins this election will likely deliver a 'Green Growth Act' of sorts - even if it costs less than £28bn. Put simply, our reliance on oil and gas is pushing energy bills

Ofgem’s Energy Price Cap is going down, because gas prices are going down. There’s no guarantee this will last. Britain’s systemic over-reliance on gas means our next energy bill crisis could be just round the corner.

Fracking would only make money for the companies drilling. It won't reduce our bills. Fracked gas gets sold on the open market *at the same high price as all the other gas*. If it didn't, energy companies wouldn't drill for it. End of story.
