• 16 Nov 2024 In need of some optimism on a Saturday night? I'll point you to the below from @TheEconomist. The price of renewable energy continues to fall and the pace at which capacity is being added continues to defy all expectations ???? https://x.com/Andrew_Lewin_/status/1857887069558772117/photo/1 [Source]
• 12 Aug 2024 When we talk about the opportunity that comes with our drive to cut emissions and reach Net Zero, organisations like @Ecodanheating embody it. A local employer in Hatfield for 35 years, Mitsibushi is a world leader in heat pump technology. A fantastic team and an uplifting visit https://twitter.com/Ecodanheating/status/1823006911526035753 [Source]
• 08 Jul 2024 Our Chancellor is getting straight to work. Thanks to the actions of @RachelReevesMP, the de facto ban on onshore shore wind power is now history. The transition to clean and green energy must be accelerated and our government took the first step today. https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/chancellor-rachel-reeves-is-taking-immediate-action-to-fix-the-foundations-of-our-economy [Source]
• 22 Apr 2024 When my Conservative opponent was the Energy Secretary, he chose to keep the ban on onshore wind power. A Labour government will end this madness. It's time to embrace clean and green energy. https://twitter.com/jburnmurdoch/status/1782420875217674395 [Source]
• 07 Apr 2024 A future powered by renewable energy is in sight. Locally and nationally, politicians need the courage to vote for clean and green energy. As the Labour Candidate, I've declared my support for plans for a solar farm to the west of Welwyn. My opponents are silent on it. https://twitter.com/SpeakSarahSpeak/status/1776917757293895774 [Source]
• 20 Mar 2024 Just caught up with Mais lecture delivered by @RachelReevesMP. You can't do it justice in a tweet, but two highlights 1. Recognising that without economic security, nobody can reach their potential 2. The commitment to make the fight against climate change central to BOE remit https://twitter.com/Andrew_Lewin_/status/1770366266353635765/photo/1 [Source]
• 16 Dec 2023 Via the FT, China is now projected to surge ahead on renewable energy capacity by 2030. The USA beat the USSR to the moon. Let's channel the same spirit and challenge Europe and the US to win the race to go green. The faster we all get there, the better. https://twitter.com/Andrew_Lewin_/status/1736030303930433732/photo/1 [Source]
• 12 Dec 2023 COP28 'draft agreement' is a victory for the fossil fuel lobby. Unless it's changed, this is a disaster for the climate. A strong British PM would be at these talks, making the case for change. Ours is too busy fighting a Conservative civil war to notice. https://on.ft.com/3uVjxdc [Source]
• 10 Oct 2023 Last night I spoke at the @serauk rally on why the stakes are high for the climate at the next election. The Conservatives want to instil fear about Net Zero, but the scary prospect is 5 more years of them in power. We have to insulate homes, back renewables & create green jobs. https://twitter.com/Andrew_Lewin_/status/1711675094290829812/photo/1 [Source]
• 22 Sep 2023 Unlike the Conservatives, @UKLabour will keep our climate commitments. We have a plan to cut emissions and cut bills with our transition to renewable energy. The stakes are especially high for young people and I'm delighted to have Daniel's support in Welwyn Hatfield ???? https://twitter.com/Andrew_Lewin_/status/1705244413377630445/photo/1 [Source]
• 20 Sep 2023 By retreating on Net Zero policies, Rishi Sunak damages the climate first and foremost. But this hurts businesses, jobs and UK competitiveness too. Well said Ford UK. https://twitter.com/SamCoatesSky/status/1704397950384791905 [Source]
• 19 Sep 2023 The planet is on course for its hottest year on record. The US and EU are stepping up their transition to green energy, to cut emissions and create jobs. And Rishi Sunak? Dropping policies that will protect the climate. Desperate politics and desperately poor leadership. https://twitter.com/BBCNews/status/1704178965731041739 [Source]
• 17 Jul 2023 With @Grantshapps at the wheel, we are stuck in the slow lane on the transition to renewable energy. More evidence today that we are falling ever further behind our peers. We need wholesale change and we need a @UKLabour government to do it. https://twitter.com/janrosenow/status/1680842280683335680 [Source]
• 05 Jul 2023 First they accept donations from climate change deniers. Now they abandon some of the most vulnerable people in the world to climate change. @RishiSunak & @Grantshapps have no interest in the future of the planet. We must defeat both at the next election. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/jul/04/revealed-uk-plans-to-drop-flagship-climate-pledge-rishi-sunak [Source]
• 04 Jun 2023 A very clear message from @jreynoldsMP on #Ridge. "New licenses for North Sea Oil will cost huge amounts of public money and be a disaster for the climate." The opportunity lies in accelerating the transition to Net Zero and creating new green jobs. [Source]
• 02 Jun 2023 More embarrassing tweets from Grant Shapps. A man of many identities, he is the 'Secretary of State for Net Zero', who wants new licenses to drill for oil... We have to win the argument for renewable energy. We have to beat Grant. Help me do just that ???? https://donation.labour.org.uk/page/103684/donate/1?clp=welwyn_hatfield [Source]
• 24 May 2023 More than 6 million people on NHS waiting lists. Core inflation hitting those on lowest incomes the hardest. Crime rising. The climate crisis looming. And this is the priority for Conservative MPs. The country deserves so much better. https://twitter.com/Steven_Swinford/status/1661267658396794880 [Source]
• 08 May 2023 The Conservatives are telling renewable energy providers that some new projects will have to wait 15 years to come online. Why? Because they have failed to invest and build capacity in the electricity grid. Another chapter in the story of Backlog Britain. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2023/may/08/uk-green-energy-projects-in-limbo-as-grid-struggles-to-keep-pace [Source]
• 11 Apr 2023 Grant Shapps will be my opponent at the GE. He is also the architect of a policy on home insulation that will take 300 years to meet the target set by his own government. I wish this was a joke. But Conservative failure on climate change is very serious. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/apr/09/uk-insulation-scheme-would-take-300-years-to-meet-its-own-targets-say-critics?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other [Source]
• 01 Apr 2023 Great to join activists from the #WarmthisWinter campaign in Welwyn Garden City a little earlier today. We need to go much further and faster on renewable energy. Labour has an ambitious plan to invest in green energy and cut bills for people in the short and long-term. https://twitter.com/Alewin7/status/1642186865448038400/photo/1 [Source]
• 31 Mar 2023 It was a real joy to speak to the Welwyn scouts last night. The young people were brilliant and we had questions on everything from climate change to North Korea! Thanks to Michal, Sarah and Tony for a respectful and engaging cross party discussion. https://twitter.com/MSiewniak/status/1641545085178224641 [Source]
• 30 Mar 2023 No surprise to see Grant Shapps fail to deliver on a green strategy. Locally he is silent on plans for a solar farm in Welwyn. As the Labour PPC, I have backed it. Nationally, here is @Ed_Miliband exposing that the Tories will fail to meet promises made at COP26. Not good enough. https://twitter.com/Ed_Miliband/status/1641395523943800833 [Source]
• 22 Feb 2023 If we're going to reach Net Zero and tackle the climate emergency, we have to back local renewable energy projects. I penned a letter to @whtimes today, setting out my support for the West Welwyn Solar Farm. As the Energy Secretary and local MP, will you do the same @grantshapps? https://twitter.com/Alewin7/status/1628524524588113920/photo/1 [Source]
• 07 Feb 2023 Grant Shapps is now Secretary of State for Net Zero. Sadly, he opposes one of our greenest and cheapest forms of energy - onshore wind. If I am selected as the Labour Candidate for Welwyn Hatfield, I'll take Grant on over his record and make the case to go faster towards Net Zero https://twitter.com/willydunn/status/1622917870366736384 [Source]
• 12 Dec 2022 We need urgent action to reach #NetZero and every community must play our part. After attending the recent consultation, I am supporting the West Welwyn Solar Farm. A 30 year source of renewable energy at no cost the taxpayer. How about you @Grantshapps? https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=pfbid0opFHYRpiuVJ7au23U3VGc5h5KSJDWhR2PRS4b4d7WXcMFRdbJ4aReyoibP1u2hpbl&id=100088115059791 https://twitter.com/Alewin7/status/1602371711558729735/photo/1 [Source]
• 07 Dec 2022 They banned onshore wind farms, flip flopped on nuclear power, closed our largest gas storage site and now... Back to coal. This government has no interest in clean and green energy and we will all pay the price in higher emissions & higher bills. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/dec/07/uk-first-new-coalmine-for-30-years-gets-go-ahead-in-cumbria?CMP=share_btn_tw [Source]
