Good to see @WhitbyJmwhitby raising #CCS with the new Chair of the Climate Change Committee (CCC), Nigel Topping. There is every reason to be very cautious. And thank you, John, for meeting constituents in Parliament as part of The Climate Coalition’s #ActNowChangeForever lobby

"The Cunliffe Report is a joke. It protects water profiteers, screws over billpayers, and will do little to reduce pollution in our rivers and coastlines. The only solution is for water to be taken into public ownership" My new column for @theipaper inews.co.uk/opinion/the-cu…

Sick of lies & misinformation in politics? They are blocking action on climate & nature & other overwhelming challenges. So please support this petition which is aligned with our own campaign #HonestPolitics secure.unlockdemocracy.org.uk/page/175132/pe…

💧Alongside @Compassoffice, @GMB_union, @sascampaigns, @We_OwnIt, @fbunational and others, we say: we have no confidence in the Cunliffe Review. The chance to fix our broken water system was deliberately wasted. Read here 👉 compassonline.org.uk/statement-of-n… #OurWaterOurWay

Water should never be a profit making machine since profit is a test of management decisions.

Damning statement from civil society organisations, trade unions, and grassroots groups: No confidence in the Cunliffe Review. Our water system needs to be publicly owned. Tweaks to a system that treats water as a profit machine won't cut it. compassonline.org.uk/statement-of-n…

💧 We’re part of the 24 unions and campaign groups that are declaring No Confidence in the findings of the Government’s “reset” review on water. It’s a missed opportunity to clean up our water, shaped by private interests. Read 👇 compassonline.org.uk/statement-of-n… @compassoffice

Welcome/Good luck @topnigel as CCC chair 👍yr caution on not using #CCS "as a fantasy to close the model" 🤔@MPWatchNetwork & @zerohour_uk urge the model must include ex-UK territorial emissions too - not just closing the loop UK carbon budgets,pls see scrapcc.org/BLOG

England water bills will rise by a third to fund privatisation. People already paid. Companies didn't invest, paid £85bn in dividends. Customers to pay again for service they don't get. Companies raise capital from customers, shareholders take profits. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

"Cunliffe report won’t make one atom of the UK’s water any cleaner." Me, in today's @thetimes thetimes.com/uk/environment…

Ending gas & oil, and investing to electrify our economy will save the UK £40 billion every year, and rising👇 Weirdly Reform don't like the idea. No-one knows why... 😉

'Sustainable' Aviation Fuels (SAF) = Emperor's New Clothes More public money announced today for this scientifically illiterate nonsense. The Gov should level with the public. The hard truth is we need to reduce flying, at least for now. edie.net/uk-sustainable…

We should re-nationalise the water companies Starting with Thames Water As Feargal Sharkey observes, their value is overstated and it's a no brainer
