  Climate breakdown means that this is the strongest hurricane this early in the year. Very scary! My thoughts and prayers to all who are in the pathway of Hurricane Beryl. I'm hoping it subsidies ???????? https://twitter.com/JamaicaObserver/status/1808584978306932910 [Source]

  The Tory Govt has failed to invest in green energy - removing green subsidies - we even have to switch off wind turbines because the grid can't handle it. We must prioritise green energy, invest in the grid & create jobs, reduce energy bills & achieve Net Zero. ????@SophyRidgeSky https://twitter.com/DawnButlerBrent/status/1699437658475249974/video/1 [Source]

• 5 Jul 2023: Parliamentary Speech

  On a point of order, Mr Speaker. It is a shame that the Deputy Prime Minister has left, because this point of order refers to his appearance in the Chamber on 7 June, when he claimed that my party’s plan to invest £28 billion a year in green energy would add £1,000 a year “to everyone’s mortgage”. He made that claim a day after the Daily Mail reported that figure and said that it came from Treasury analysis.

• 15 Mar 2023: Parliamentary Speech

  The UK economy cannot be improved without London’s contribution. London Councils has five key priorities: housing and homelessness; health and care; supporting businesses; helping London deliver net zero; and greater devolution to local government. London’s businesses are struggling in the face of increasing labour and energy costs and sustained high inflation. Will the Chancellor commit to keeping the energy bill relief scheme under review and materially improving the discount for businesses, and will he reform the apprenticeship levy to make it easier and cheaper for employers to recruit and retain talent? As we have heard, many employers are buying equipment rather than investing in people. As the hon. Member for Cities of London and Westminster said, we should reintroduce the VAT retail export scheme too, to make London and other UK destinations more competitive for overseas shoppers. That would add a net gain to the public purse.
