04 Sep 2024 From flooded British farms to the desertification of Sicily, the climate crisis requires careful water management. It's existential: water must be brought into public ownership. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1831376682839679110/video/1 [Source]

30 Aug 2024 These two water companies both have the same problem. They've made it extremely clear that they're unfit to keep us safe from the climate crisis. If privatised water can't deal with a slightly wet summer, it certainly won't keep us safe from extreme weather. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1829457895802462701/photo/1 [Source]

29 Aug 2024 Hats off to campaigners who challenged the licence and the movement which led to the law making it possible.

19 Aug 2024 The climate crisis is here, and more shareholder payouts from water companies won't save us. 70% of Sicily is at risk of desertification and most of the island's lakes are almost dry.

01 Aug 2024 This CEO accidentally makes the case for bringing water under public control. These companies prioritised giving billions to shareholders over investing in climate-resilient infrastructure. It's crystal clear: Privatised water cannot keep us safe during the climate crisis. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1818990374993498510/photo/1 [Source]

30 Jul 2024 The destruction caused by Hurricane Beryl proves the Caribbean is at the sharp end of the climate crisis. I asked the Foreign Secretary what plans he has to bring a new climate finance deal to COP29. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1818268057476678130/video/1 [Source]

29 Jul 2024 The face of the climate crisis in 4K. Make no mistake: This will be on your doorstep. That's because fossil fuel CEOs are isolated from climate change, tucked away in air-conditioned compounds. It's time to stand up to those polluters and end fossil fuel extraction. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1817896758237675732 https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1817896758237675732/photo/1

28 Jul 2024 Growth has to be sustainable, take into account ecological implications and ensure it benefits the broadest range of constituents. Not just the wealthy. If in decarbonising the economy we destroy our already depleted ecosystems, we’ve failed. [Source]

25 Jul 2024 Written by scientists, the Climate and Nature Bill would lock into law our international obligations and restore the UK as a global climate leader. As a supporter of the #CANBill, I look forward to this government adopting a science-led approach to tackling the climate crisis. https://twitter.com/zerohour_uk/status/1816149517181272351 [Source]

22 Jul 2024 Remember when Sunak made a speech dropping his climate commitments? Yeah, that didn't go well for him. Timidity in the face of the climate crisis only benefits fossil fuel companies.

19 Jul 2024 The climate crisis is a class issue. We can't get away from that. In this speech outside Southwark Crown Court after the imprisonment of five peaceful environment defenders, I explain why. https://x.com/JustStop_Oil/status/1814221975214043219/video/1 [Source]

09 Jul 2024 The climate crisis, the cost of living and international instability mean many of us are worried about the future. Here’s how a progressive Labour government can make a real difference ???????? https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1810664312014545059/video/1 [Source]

07 Jul 2024 The authoritarian-right only have to win once for democratic rights to be demolished. If the exit polls in France are correct, they’ve averted such an outcome. Longer-term only by deepening democracy, fighting the climate crisis & redistributing wealth can we make it permanent [Source]

06 Jul 2024 6/7 I will represent those who voted in hope of a government that stands firm against anyone trying to stop the action needed to avert the worst of human created climate change; for one which sees net zero as a challenge to be seized not something to hide from or wish away. [Source]

10 Jun 2024 5/ Climate breakdown means thousands of people’s homes could be flooded yearly, rendering them unliveable. This could happen in just a few years. Environmental regulators even warn we could run out of water in the summer by 2050. [Source]

10 Jun 2024 4/ Priority issue: Climate and Environment. East Anglia is the UK region most at risk from early climate impacts. Climate breakdown has already arrived here. Between 2022-23 the number of flood reports in Norfolk doubled. In 2023, the Wensum River in Norwich burst its banks. [Source]

22 May 2024 Climate change means we are seeing extreme weather patterns - from droughts to flooding. This demands careful water management and investment in adaptation. The private sector has prioritised profit & payouts, when we really need investment for present and future challenges. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1793217985278066979/photo/1 [Source]

21 May 2024 The Pacific Island States are susceptible to some of the worst impacts of the climate crisis. 9 of these states are calling for the international community to back their Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty. I have tabled Early Day Motion 743 in support of the Treaty. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1792957655540977784/photo/1 [Source]

21 May 2024 The 16 water monopolies cannot be trusted to meet the challenge of climate change adaptation. For the benefit of people and planet, we need to ditch privatised water. Tell your MP to support bringing water under public ownership ⬇️ https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-your-mp-champion-clean-water/ [Source]

20 May 2024 Sewage-dumping private companies can't be trusted to meet the challenge of adapting to the climate crisis. Since privatisation, water bills have soared by 40% and investment has fallen. Tell your MP: it's time to bring water under public control. https://actionnetwork.org/letters/tell-your-mp-champion-clean-water/ [Source]

17 May 2024 @NewAngliaEnergy @crisortunity We’ll be explaining how and why public ownership of water is the best option and how it can be done cost effectively. No one should be making profit from a natural monopoly as critical as water given the climate crisis. Everything should be reinvested for adaption. [Source]

15 May 2024 Our human rights will be a bulwark against the worst impacts of the climate crisis. Is there a role for policymakers in ensuring the protection of these rights? That's what I asked a panel of experts at a @CommonsEAC session. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1790675658319843455/video/1 [Source]

14 May 2024 Our privatised water system cannot build the infrastructure we need to adapt to climate change. I asked a panel of experts at today's @CommonsEAC session why our broken models of land and water ownership are rarely considered. Their silence was staggering. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1790424698703995255/video/1 [Source]

13 May 2024 The country is crying out for real progressive change. 67% of Conservative voters want a four-day work week. That's because it improves mental health, supports the economy, and helps tackle the climate crisis. A no-brainer of a policy. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1790033497689596139/photo/1 [Source]

22 Apr 2024 For a just transition, we need a science-led approach to our climate and nature legislation. That's why I have co-sponsored the Climate and Nature Bill. I'm proud to support a Bill that sets the UK on a path to a more nature-positive future. #CANBill #EarthDay https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1782356743084790064/photo/1 [Source]

11 Apr 2024 Our net zero targets are based on outsourcing our emissions to developing nations. Are we in danger of creating a two-tiered world? That's what I asked a panel of experts at a @CommonsEAC session. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1778487402845090217/video/1 [Source]

10 Apr 2024 Last year, National Grid - privatised in 1990 - made more than £4,500,000,000 in profits. I think they can afford to decarbonise the energy grid without destroying our agriculture, livelihoods and pristine views. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1777969769481740431/video/1 [Source]

05 Apr 2024 The climate crisis is driving the foundations of economic shocks. As a result, inflation and interest rates rise, worsening the cost of living crisis. I asked a panel of experts at a @CommonsEAC session what we can do to stop this cycle we're trapped in. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1776300698763714794/video/1 [Source]

05 Apr 2024 Our democratic institutions have been captured and run in favour of a few private interests, in this case, the fossil fuel industry. The Charity Commission must ensure these interests do not influence the abuse of charity status to downplay the scale of the climate crisis. https://twitter.com/GoodLawProject/status/1776170218563252684 [Source]

24 Mar 2024 Despite over a decade of Tory cuts, Norwich City Council is responding to the climate crisis and giving people cheaper energy bills.

04 Mar 2024 Investing in a liveable planet will make homes and communities more pleasant places for all of us, reviving our economy in the process. Ahead of the Spring Budget, I've joined Parliamentarians in asking the Chancellor to scale up public investment to decarbonise the UK economy. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1764613367409328388/photo/1 [Source]

13 Feb 2024 The majority of us want climate action and affordable energy bills. But our reliance on fossil fuels means that three-quarters of us are worried about the impact climate change will have on our bills. The climate and cost of living crises are inextricably linked. https://twitter.com/PositiveMoneyUK/status/1757334945926709391 [Source]

02 Feb 2024 12. The time for caution and for adherence to a failed, 60-year-old economic orthodoxy, is well and truly behind us. Now Labour should be the party to never let a crisis go to waste. You don’t get bigger than the climate crisis. Labour’s finest hour could yet be ahead of it. [Source]

31 Jan 2024 This shows the democratic deficit in full view.

30 Jan 2024 Access to clean water is vital to our existence. Private water companies have continued to pump raw sewage into our rivers, leaving us even more vulnerable to the climate crisis. Water must be brought back under democratic public control. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1679119739099004929/video/1 https://twitter.com/guardianeco/status/1752212435430445146 [Source]

29 Jan 2024 The Government spends £10 billion a year supporting the fossil fuel industry, pushing us off an existential cliff edge. Should we instead invest a similar amount in sustainable energy technologies? That's what I asked the Director for Regulation and Economics at Octopus Energy. https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1752017511078563935/video/1 [Source]

19 Jan 2024 The majority of us want climate action and affordable energy bills. Expanding oil and gas extraction only means more profits for the oil and gas industry. To tackle the climate crisis, we must ramp up investment in renewable energy and consign fossil fuels to the history books. https://twitter.com/guardiannews/status/1748213464542441538 [Source]

08 Jan 2024 The Tories have got this wrong, Labour's Reasoned Amendment sums up why: This Bill: “is entirely incompatible with the UK’s international climate change commitments...a totally unnecessary piece of legislation which will do nothing to serve the UK’s national interest”. 9/9 [Source]

08 Jan 2024 Another example is the Local Electricity Bill, which I co-sponsor. If this became law, it would unleash the power of communities to set up renewable energy schemes that could be owned and run by local people. 8/9 https://powerforpeople.org.uk/the-local-electricity-bill [Source]

We need a #GreenNewDeal now. https://x.com/pippacrerar/status/1458477603212431363?s=21 https://twitter.com/labourlewis/status/1458389839049629697 [Source]

10 Nov 2021 Public transport is central to fighting climate change, yet 1000s of transport worker jobs are under threat. On transport day at COP26, I support @RMTunion’s calls for the Govt to ‘Cut carbon emissions not public transport jobs’.

09 Nov 2021 Great chat with @GeorgeMonbiot and @PaulJSweeney at #COP26. The bottom line: the wealthy are driving the climate & ecological crisis with their consumption. The best way to deal with the complexity of this issue isn’t a carbon tax but rather wealth taxes as stated in our #GND https://x.com/labourlewis/status/1458163097882046477/photo/1 [Source]

20 Oct 2021 Is the UK's green plan enough to halt climate change? According to the ⁦@BBCNews⁩ article below, the answer is a pretty resounding “NO”. Lots of #Greenwash , confusion, half-measures & financial black-holes. Time to back the #GNDBill https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-58973826 [Source]

20 Oct 2021 We can turn the climate crisis around, both here and internationally, with political leadership and vision. All of this is encapsulated in the #GNDBill (formally the Decarbonisation and Economic Strategy Bill). Show your support for the bill: https://www.gndrising.org/campaigns/back-the-gnd-bill/ [Source]

20 Oct 2021 It’s now clear that almost as dangerous as the climate crisis itself is the delay and greenwash which we are seeing from those who champion and protect the vested interests destroying out planet. #COP26 https://x.com/labourlewis/status/1450517009951862791 [Source]
