🔴 Stella Creasy nails it 👏
You can’t say our energy system has left us vulnerable… and then oppose the only things that actually make us independent.
Oil and gas tie us to global markets.
Renewables break that link.
It really is that simple.

One take-away: solar panels produce 28x as much electricity per acre than biofuel (ethanol).
Yes climate change is already killing people

Every day is a good day to point out that 92% of Reform's donations were found to come from figures and groups linked to the fossil fuel industry. @desmog.com
@andrewhunterm.bsky.social Hi Andrew. I think you sent me a DM but I can’t read it as I haven’t set up my ID. Please email me at [email protected]. I will try and email you directly in a moment.
Delighted to say that the UK's government-industry Solar Roadmap was published this morning, describing dozens of practical measures to boost the supply of cheaper, greener power, deliver new industries and create skilled jobs. #solarsky #solarenergy solarenergyuk.org/news/roadmap... #solarenergy
Now this is what I like to see. Ed Miliband said: “We’re going to win this fight... The forces that oppose #netzero will have to reckon not just with the government. They will have to reckon with all these companies that are creating jobs.” 💪☀️🔋⚡ www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
I did that.⤵️ The Telegraph’s figures for how many #solar #solarsky panels needed by 2035 were an order of magnitude out, due to some frankly silly maths that assumed solar farms are a flat sea of glass. Breaking news: they aren’t.
Why getting most of our power from solar and storage is no longer a distant hope but the fastest, cheapest, most common-sense way to power our world.

Reform UK has received more than £2.3 million from oil and gas interests, highly polluting industries, and climate science deniers since December 2019, amounting to 92 percent of the party’s donations...
