    I met with local farmers this morning. They're concerned not just about family farms being broken up by inheritance tax, but also other Budget measures including the hefty Carbon Tax on fertiliser - which their competitors in other countries won't have to pay. https://x.com/NeilDotObrien/status/1858883795820118379/photo/1 [Source]

    It was sad to see the scrapping of the dualling of the A1 through Northumberland. Land and houses had been bought up to allow for the work, which makes it even worse. I was astonished to see that in the Budget, although there was lots of capital for other things, including the different things that the right hon. Member for Doncaster North (Ed Miliband) wants to do on net zero, there was an overall reduction in capital transport spending. I was really surprised by that. I do not really understand what the logic was.

    People investing their own money = better for growth than Reeves "investing" Of £24.5bn capital spend increase 23/24-25/25: +£7bn on net zero schemes (mainly carbon capture) -£300m CUT to transport +£500m more capital in aid spend +£600m DEFRA (big thing=peatland resoration) https://x.com/NeilDotObrien/status/1851679519565885637/photo/1 [Source]

    If Ed Miliband does ever produce a costing of his Net Zero Grid by 2030 plan, we'll need to check against the reality on the ground - which is proving more expensive than assumed. https://twitter.com/aDissentient/status/1846488014203048063 [Source]

    As a political wheeze to try and legitimise a massive debt-fuelled splurge they are going to set up an "Office for Value for Money". Yet Ed Miliband won't even publish a costing of his mad plan for a Net Zero grid by 2030. Irony is on life support. https://twitter.com/faisalislam/status/1847176855029244324 [Source]

    This week I asked Ed Miliband if he would publish a costing of his plans for a net zero grid (a costing was commisioned by @ClaireCoutinho). He said work on the costing was "ongoing" and made no commitment to publish it. https://x.com/NeilDotObrien/status/1845383454839447577/video/1 [Source]

    Superb longread on energy policy by @Jonathan__Leake and @mattotele. Quotes industry sources saying like extension for reactors will not be significant, making Ed Miliband dash for net zero grid by 2030 even more expensive. ???? https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2024/10/13/why-age-of-energy-rationing-is-looming-for-britain/ https://x.com/NeilDotObrien/status/1845382149232292244/photo/1 [Source]

    And there are a variety of environmental reasons why you might think a net zero-obsessed government would want to do more in our cities: energy use and emissions are lower in cities because of denser housing (which use less heat) and lower usage of car transport. [Source]
  • 8 Oct 2024: Parliamentary Speech

    The previous Secretary of State commissioned the Department to produce a full economic costing for getting to a fully decarbonised renewables-based grid by 2030, as the Secretary of State wants. That is obviously the sort of information that should be placed before the House so that we can have an informed discussion. It may be a good thing to do, but we should obviously know what the cost is. When will the Secretary of State publish that information?

    We have loaded up our economy with many different demands. We want to spend on being a world leader in aid & defence & public services & to cut the cost of living. The demand to also be a world leader in paying to decarbonise is just one of many competing demands on our economy. [Source]

    Instead, we could have been & still could be more like France. If we build a big slug of nuclear that is likely to be a cheaper and less risky way to decarbonise than creating a grid that is incredibly dependent on intermittent wind and as-yet-non-existent storage technologies. [Source]

    The dash for a net zero grid by 2020 will mean the (already high) costs of energy in the UK will go even higher, as we have to start paying for VERY expensive storage, on top of the cost of rapid renewable rollout. [Source]
