  This week energy bosses admitted that Ed Miliband’s energy policy will see bills go up. Our Cheap Power Plan to axe the Carbon Tax and scrap old wind subsidies would cut everyone’s electricity bills by 20% instantly. We have to put cheap energy first. Here’s how. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1979541981643800955/video/1 [Source]

  Net Zero has become a religion and anyone who dares question it is deemed a heretic. But we have to be honest - it’s making us all poorer and it’s making climate change worse. Great to join @bbcnickrobinson for Political Thinking this week - full episode below???????? https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1979236678616134066/video/1 [Source]

  A third of the cost of gas power is a Carbon Tax. We’d axe it. Ed paid £82/MWh for 15 years of offshore wind last year and is paying much more this year. That’s BEFORE the extra costs of renewables. Want people to use electric cars? MAKE ELECTRICITY CHEAP. https://twitter.com/timpollard2/status/1978740366573490280 [Source]

  We need a radical change to energy policy. Our Cheap Power Plan would cut bills by 20% instantly. Axe the Carbon Tax and scrap the Renewable Obligation subsidies pushing up bills. Ed could do this tomorrow if he truly cared about cutting bills. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1978555212139798875/video/1 [Source]

  We have to be honest. The Climate Change Act is not working for climate change, our economy, or people’s bills. The best thing for all three is to cut the cost of electricity. Our Cheap Power Plan would scrap the Climate Change Act and cut electricity bills by 20% TODAY. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1976302849903706147/video/1 [Source]

  Ed Miliband is shutting down our British oil and gas industry only to import dirtier fuel from abroad. It’s economic and environmental insanity. That’s why we’d repeal the Climate Change Act and back British industry. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1976196539266871799/photo/1 [Source]

• 07 Oct 2025: Tweet

  We have a choice. High bills, more bans, and more taxes to meet climate targets that won’t make a difference to climate change. Or we could… MAKE ELECTRICITY CHEAP. Our plan would cut bills by 20% NOW. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1975560727307182246/video/1 [Source]

  Axe the Carbon Tax. Scrap Ed Miliband’s old rip-off wind farm subsidies. Cut electricity bills by 20%. Ed could do this tomorrow if he wanted to. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1975237651985781059/video/1 [Source]

  Axe the Carbon Tax. Scrap Ed Miliband’s old rip-off wind farm subsidies. Ed could cut your electricity bills by 20% tomorrow if he wanted to. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1975237029308101041/video/1 [Source]

  We will put cheap, reliable, abundant energy first. And we will do that unashamedly. We will Axe the Carbon Tax and scrap Ed Miliband’s old rip off wind farm subsidies. This is in the gift of Ministers. It could be done tomorrow. And it would cut your electricity bill by 20%. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1975165142217179413/video/1 [Source]

  When something isn’t working, we should be honest and say so. The Climate Change Act isn’t working for Britain or global emissions. It forces us to make decisions that increase bills and make people poorer. We will repeal it and put cheap energy, nature and innovation first. https://twitter.com/kemibadenoch/status/1973638230106054981 [Source]

  This is Net Zero madness on steroids. Ed Miliband is standing between Britain and growth. As I said last year, if we don’t build more gas power stations we won’t have the AI revolution that could power growth in Britain. We won’t save the planet by making this sacrifice - they will just be built elsewhere. [Source]

  Ed Miliband is selling British jobs for foreign imports in the name of climate change. Doubling carbon taxes and fantasy energy policy won’t mean we need any less gas, steel or chemicals. It just means we’ll import more from abroad. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1965308618880024739/photo/1 [Source]

  Keir Starmer has blown the opportunity to spare us all from Ed Miliband and his Net Zero zealotry. Forget higher growth - it’ll mean higher bills, fewer jobs, and more imports. https://twitter.com/benrileysmith/status/1964001318629986341 [Source]

  Let’s take this head on. We’re now importing MORE LNG which is up to 4x more polluting than UK gas. That’s gas from, say Qatar, which has to be frozen, shipped and reheated again in the UK. We’re exporting jobs to increase pollution in the name of climate change. Madness. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1962811974867107996/photo/1 https://twitter.com/cfyson/status/1962775589581902180 [Source]

  The Climate Change Committee is using cost assumptions for offshore wind that do not reflect reality. These inaccurate costings are being used to justify spending hundreds of billions of pounds and transforming our entire economy. They must correct them. My letter to the CCC???????? https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1961050691843051628/photo/1 [Source]

  When I came out against Drax, their CEO called me "reckless and irresponsible". Now they are once again being investigated - this time by the FCA - for their sourcing of wood pellets. Huge cost and more carbon than our last coal plant, but continued because of Net Zero. Going green by burning trees is absurd. A reminder that protecting nature is NOT the same as Net Zero. [Source]

  RT @KemiBadenoch: Labour’s Net Zero = higher bills Miliband locking us into 20yrs of sky-high subsidies for unreliable renewables. Now tax… [Source]

  Excellent. If we pursue climate goals that hurt our growth we’ll be a warning, not an example to others. Wind is not ‘getting cheaper’ - it’s actually getting more expensive. Nuclear is key but regs hold it back. Thats why I’ve laid radical amendments to speed up nuclear ???????? https://twitter.com/archiehall/status/1950998751977545917 [Source]

  If Ed Miliband had his way, a third runway at Heathrow would be blocked. That’s because for the climate lobby, Net Zero is more important than growth and living standards. This is a poverty mindset which will make us all poorer. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1951219389186838809/video/1 https://twitter.com/hmtreasury/status/1951191170505163066 [Source]

  £72 - price of electricity last year. £82 - what Ed paid for wind last year. £113 - what Ed’s willing to pay for wind this year. Ed should be honest. He is locking us into higher prices for longer to meet his own unrealistic climate targets. This isn’t about lowering your bills. It’s about his own political legacy. [Source]

  Labour’s decision to surrender control to the EU Carbon Tax scheme increased OUR carbon prices by 50%. This decision alone has lumped £2 BILLION on energy bills. And Ed Miliband’s botched wind auction is going to make this even worse - locking us into higher prices for longer. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1950099334277501267/photo/1 [Source]

  RT @KemiBadenoch: This is why I warned that Net Zero targets with no plan will bankrupt Britain. Keir, Rachel and Ed promised to cut bills… [Source]

  This is insane. An official said “The AI agenda would be way more advanced if it wasn’t for Miliband’s focus on net zero.” We cannot block one of our most important growth sectors in the name of Net Zero. Energy policy must fit what the country needs, not the other way around. https://x.com/ClaireCoutinho/status/1947943249441919112/photo/1 [Source]
