• 12 Nov 2024: Parliamentary Speech

  The benefits are enormous: significant decarbonisation and faster and quieter trains through one of the most densely populated lines in the country.

  Rail infrastructure is about more than just the tracks that the trains run on. It is the rolling stock that carries the passengers or the freight. It is about the skills of the workforce who build the tunnels, wire the overhead lines and guide multi-million—often billion—pound projects from conception to the big business case review through to line energisation. It is also about the train drivers, cleaners and ticket booth operators; the impact it has on stations and the surrounding areas; and our efforts towards decarbonisation, taking cars off our roads and cleaning our air.

  Investing in green skills protects both the future of our planet & our workforces too. The new Growth & Skills Levy will bring us towards net zero, create secure jobs and transform our supply chains for the better. Great to join @RHANews & @SME4LABOUR’s Green Skills Panel ????⚙️ https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1838908329592340895/photo/1 [Source]

  when she was there a few weeks ago, is one of the businesses in Derby championing new technologies, excellence and expertise, and it is at the frontline in the fight against climate change. You can see Pride Park stadium, home of Derby County, back in the Championship, ready to bounce back like our city and our country. It is one of this country’s true community clubs that I hope will be protected for the future by the Football Governance Bill.

  Stopped in at the Workplace Tech Conference hosted by Derby company Scenariio. Fascinating to hear about tech innovations which can help us achieve net zero, improve sustainability and bring down energy bills. https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1800042374967783450/photo/1 [Source]

  Shadow Secretary of State for Climate Change ⁦@Ed_Miliband⁩ says our new school in Derby @SRSCMAT’s St Marys can be a blueprint for the future of decarbonising public buildings. The hard work of all involved has created an incredible learning environment for our children. https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1734212724165345676/video/1 [Source]

  If the government cancelled its failed budget and instead invested in the REAL economy in Derby we could see more good jobs created that also help us tackle climate change. My speech… https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1575788313407283200/video/1 [Source]

  If only @RachelReevesMP was Chancellor today! A former Bank of England economist with a plan to invest in green high-tech business. We met after she praised @RollsRoyceUK’s work in decarbonising aviation in her speech & discussed the jobs in nuclear it’s also creating in Derby. https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1575453457192030209/photo/1 [Source]

  Labour is listening to Derby. Backing Small Nuclear Reactors that @RollsRoyceUK is leading on & doubling down on Hydrogen, which will power @Alstom’s new train fleet, as part of the plan to make affordable green energy here in the UK. https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1574280569344565248/photo/1 [Source]

  Total respect to emergency services fighting through the heat to keep us safe. You deserve a Government that appreciates you and is serious about tackling climate change. https://twitter.com/UNISONEastMids/status/1549398843959164936 [Source]

  Rolls-Royce is developing next generation nuclear and carbon-neutral aviation. I want to see much more Government investment targetted at helping the country meet its climate change obligations. [Source]

  I’ve been endorsed by @LabourCID to be MP. Last month I was on @radioikhlas in support of @Midlanddoctors whose Radio appeal raised over £200,000 for medical aid to Pakistan. Conflict, climate change, natural disasters & pandemics: these are global issues we should face together. https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1527232003426459648/photo/1 [Source]

  On @BBCSunPolEM 10.15am I’ll be paying tribute to @UKLabour activists who fought in the rain & won the argument on investment in our region, inequality and climate change. Labour’s roots in our communities go deep while Boris’s cheap words will prove shallow. We’ll win them back. [Source]

  Message from Sam from Long Eaton “It’s my 18th tomorrow so I might be the youngest voter in Erewash - and I’m voting for Catherine. She’s shown she cares about the issues I care about: climate change, student fees, a fairer society & she’s the only one who can beat the Tory!” https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1204857335857995777/photo/1 [Source]

  Just taken @friends_earth’s #ClimateActionPledge. If elected I’ll vote in Parliament for Labour’s pledges of 7000 new offshore wind turbines and upgrade almost all homes to the highest energy-efficiency standards = new jobs and tackling climate emergency https://twitter.com/friends_earth/status/1194987106201952257/photo/1 [Source]

  The Conservative MP for Erewash scored 0 out of 100 on climate change. I want to be a 100% MP on the biggest issue facing our generation. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/ng-interactive/2019/oct/11/guardian-climate-score-how-did-your-mp-do https://twitter.com/catkinson80/status/1183450876033339401/video/1 [Source]
